Exploring Resilience and Creativity through Art Therapy and Mindfulness 

A creative and explorative workshop integrating therapeutic art making with guided mindfulness meditation, open to all levels of experience.

How can we cultivate resilience to support ourselves during challenging times?

One theme offered during the session will be trees as a symbol of resilience, explored through images, mindfulness meditation, art making and group sharing.

We will connect with our felt-sense and self-expression to consider how we resource ourselves: how can we care for ourselves and others? How we can grow and thrive amidst adversity and change? How we can rest in our unique individual expression within our interconnected and interdependent networks?

Aims:
• Cultivate spaciousness, presence and ease
• Open to creativity and insight
• Practice resilience and grounding
• Connect with the heart and emotions

All levels of experience with mindfulness and/or art making are welcome to attend.

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.
