Workshop One: Opening to Joy and Expression
How can we open to joy and creative expression? This is a creative and explorative workshop integrating therapeutic art making with guided mindfulness meditation, open to all levels of experience.
This session will develop your understanding of mindfulness, gratitude and appreciation practices. . During the time of environmental and economic challenges (amongst other individual and collective challenges) the practices of mindfulness and opening to joy have the potential to support our own personal wellbeing, and ways in which you can meet others facing their own challenges. From the basis of our own resourcing and resilience we may find new ways to be able to meet and respond to the collective challenges we are experiencing.
Aims:
- Deepen your understanding of mindfulness, gratitude and appreciation practices
- Understand some of the potential barriers to these practices
- Find ways to resource and nourish yourself in challenging times
All levels of experience with mindfulness and/or art making are welcome to attend!
This workshop will be delivered face-to-face in Lewes, East Sussex.
Facilitator/s:
Nicky Roland, is an experienced HCPC registered Art Therapist, a trained mindfulness teacher, and a Work That Reconnects facilitator with several years work experience in the NHS, voluntary sector and in private practice.
