ABOUT CREATIVE MINDFULNESS
Often, we think mindfulness means sitting perfectly still with a quiet mind, or that being "creative" requires artistic talent. Neither is true. But both creative play and mindful awareness are deeply soothing, calming, and beneficial. These sessions are a gentle, fun exploration of what mindfulness is and how it is helpful in day-to-day life. Using simple, playful creative activities as a gateway to practice being present, we can let go of our need to make something "perfect" and focus instead on the joy of simply 'doing'. By allowing things to unfold naturally in their own way, we are able to reconnect with ease, peace, self-acceptance and fun.
