Wellness Wednesday - Mornings

Looking for a creative outlet that’s soothing and not stressful? Join us for Wellness Wednesdays and explore the joy of S L O W art.

You will learn simple ways to create art that will calm the nervous system and leave you feeling lighter and more at ease.

You will get to try all kinds of different materials with a variety of projects which add new neuropathways for brain health. We use simple mindfulness techniques based on neuroscience.

Participants will:

• Learn exercises to shift focus away from concerns
• Experience the physiological phenomenon of FLOW
• Slow down their breathing pattern
• Calm their nervous system

What’s happening to your brain during this process?

• New neuropathways grow
• Neuroplasticity increases
• Self-confidence grows
• Self-esteem is improved
• Activate the pleasure center (literally gives you a type of a “high.”

Don’t think you can make art? This is for you because we guide you step by step through the process for a good outcome. It takes the fear and frustration out of the equation.

Even if you’ve had a bad experience with art, this could be just the thing to change your mind. Seriously, it's really more about the process than it is about the end product. It DOES NOT require you to have any skills whatsoever.

Have the courage to be imperfect. Relax, slow down, and breathe deeply while moving your hands to let go of stress. That’s what this is about. It’s not about making a perfect picture.

And, you just might be surprised by how much fun you have.

We will go forward with this workshop if we have a minimum of three people, so invite your friends, colleagues, family, and any other adult(s) up to the maximum of 12 people.

For cancellations, a 24-hour notice is required for a full refund.

You will get an email notice the day prior to the group if we have reached our minimum number of participants.
