No art experience necessary
I spent a beautiful day at this workshop hosted by Sara & Sivitri. I find it difficult to remember the last time I felt this calm and relaxed. I’m pleasantly surprised by the artwork I created and it will serve as a reminder and inspiration for me to slow down and be more creative.

In a non-stop tech world, ditching our phones to connect with ourselves and create something with our hands feels like a luxurious treat. But in actuality it’s a necessity.
When Sivitri and I facilitated our first workshop together we realised that people didn’t just come to create a piece of art, they came because they innately knew they needed to connect with themselves. They weren’t sure exactly what to expect but as the practices unfolded, each one of them started to light up and many “aha” moments unfurled.
The practices are not about being perfect – in fact we encourage imperfection – they’re about instinct, getting out of the mind and into the body. It’s not necessarily about the end-product, it’s about the journey along the way. The synchronicities, the joyful pace of discovering something new about ourselves, the way we think and the way we create internally and externally. Even if we are not artists, we are all creators. We were born to create. Creativity is essential and allows us to feel and to heal, to be mindful and balanced.
As one participant exclaimed after gazing upon the piece she created, “I never thought I’d create something this beautiful”. And it was, beautiful!
In a world of overwhelm, it’s our mission to remind you of the layers of yourself, and to take the practices we share and use them regularly in order to return to a sense of calm and connection with yourself and your creativity.
This workshop is for you if:
- You want to work with your intuition and creative energy.
- You want to have fun, tap into your imagination, and let your inner voice guide you
- No artistic skills needed
