Art Journaling

 

 What is Art Journaling? Art Journaling is a visual diary and a way to combine record keeping with creativity.

Many of our thoughts, feelings and ideas are lodged in our brain and connected to our subconscious. Being able to tap into that area in a fun and playful way can be very transformational and help heal all sorts of latent blocks. Our brain is wired to recognize and express through visual images and being able to use art and visual aids to get connected to and clear out old outdated patterns is the easiest and most effective way to move into new paradigms.

This is for anyone who is looking to bring some more play and expression into their life but is also open to digging deep and allowing whatever lies within to come through and be cleared away.

You do not need to be an artist to participate, only a willingness to self express your creativity. This space is a place to record your thoughts, memories, and emotions through images, art and words. We will begin with short relaxing meditations to promote your self-exploration where you will heal, feel nourished, be curious, rise up and create your best life through creativity.

In all the years I've spent doing courses, reading books, getting coaching and leading masterminds this has been one of the most exhilarating and empowering experiences of my life. To illustrate just how transformative it has been I have included my experience with this below.

"When I took my first Art Journaling class this is what happened - It felt like I was dancing with the sheet of paper. My inner child was coming out to play (and she has not visited in such a long time) and was curious to see how the different colored crayons would blend with one another on paper. I felt healed and nourished putting the crayons to paper and discovering what pictures would arrive. The picture journaling was so healing but I don't even know what I was healing from and it was fun. I was so happy and free all day and in the evening I completed the large heart drawing. What made this art journaling and meditation session so beautiful was sharing and connecting the experience with five complete strangers. These people lived all over the country and all of us were in different stages in our lives. Everyone was courageous and vulnerable, sharing a piece of themself bringing out a human loving connection and in that short time we created a community and have decided to meet every two months as a group going forward. "

Below are some pictures of my creations I made during my first Journaling class.

If any part of you feels called or pulled to take part please do not hesitate to reach out. Many Times we look for reasons and justifications to move forward but many times we already know what our heart and body want. So if any of your heart or body is feeling excited about creating a transformational process through the playful medium of art let's set up a call to connect and see how we can get you feeling excited, happy and lit up by life.
