Supporting Your Mindfulness and Creative Practices
We recommend the ‘Insight Timer’ app (for your smartphone) where you can join our ‘Art Therapy and Mindfulness’ group. We share here some guided meditations which we recommend to practice with, along side our sessions. We like to suggest you take 5 or 10 minutes sometimes after a meditation for an art making practice.
