Service Description
Our Virtual Gratitude Retreat is an online creative support circle for gentle creativity, quiet support in a once-a-month session You are invited to sit with your thoughts, notice your feelings & create space to let go of the things that are bothersome - it's not therapy - it's connection & support This season, we’re opening the doors again to something simple & deeply needed in our community A live online gathering where you can create, play & paint, sketch, reflect or simply sit with your materials while being held in calm company without pressure to do anything but rest There's no performance outcome - no critique - no pressure to produce something impressive - just you embracing mindfulness & shared creative presence These sessions grew from our much-loved “Play & Paint” gatherings & now return in a softer gathering of creative support in a circle of adults who feel a little stretched, a little tired & who quietly need some space to breathe after a long month You’re welcome whether you: • haven’t touched your art supplies in years • feel creatively deflated or uninspired • are moving through a heavy season • or simply crave companionship while you create We’ll begin with a short grounding practice as I light a candle, sends out the printables & create a visually pleasing space at my table for you - it's a place where you’ll have time to work on your own practice, at your own pace away from work, life & your family - sometimes chatting as we enjoy each other's company - other times gently guiding the practice with room for self-expression We can talk about the month's events, come up with new colours or simply sit in quiet flow At times it's okay to say something like, “I didn’t know I needed this” to yourself as you come to relax all the worries away That’s enough - this is a sanctuary for us - not a performance exhibition You’ll continue your access as part of our "Journey with Us" sessions in a monthly creative journey that is themed for your practice continuation along with the Open Studio Session rhythms & your colouring pages This option only includes the Open Studio Sessions, not my in-person workshops or the other practices If you’ve been looking for a softer way back to yourself, this may be it - Husky, the studio muse might make her appearance if she's not sleeping
