What is a creative journal?
Similar to a traditional journal, a creative journal is a safe space for you to process, express and release your thoughts, feelings or experiences. It is your space to use as you please.
In coming together as a community we hold each other accountable and offer a safe and supportive space for a beautiful self care activity.
All you need is a journal and any art supplies that are calling your name (watercolor, markers, colored pencils, collage material, etc).
You can read more about creative journaling in this three part blog post: one, two and three.
dates and information coming soon
What will a session look like…
-
Somatic Check In
We will start with a quick somatic check in where I will guide you through a short mindfulness practice.
This will help to create a safe space for you to engage in your art-making proces and also serve as information to know how you are coming into the session.
-
Art-Making
Then, I will introduce the theme for the week. Where you will then work on your creative journal independently.
Some possible themes include: self love, inner child healing, personal power, exploring different emotions, and many more!
It is entirely optional if you choose to create art based off of the theme for the week or if you rather create on your own.
-
Share and Discuss
After some time, we will all come together to share (if you wish) what you made and what came up for you.
I will also offer some reflective questions which you can use as a way to process your art on your own if you do not wish to share with the group.
