The Artful Being Journey

A 5-week guided creative meditation journey held in a small, in-person group.

Each Friday from April 3 - May 1 / 3:00–4:30 pm

How We Work

Across the five weeks, these practices unfold as a unified approach to creativity rooted in presence, sensation, and inner listening. Each session begins with guided meditation to settle the nervous system and shift attention from thinking into sensing. From there, mark-making, color, symbol, and drawing are approached not as techniques to master, but as ways of responding to lived experience in real time. Whether working abstractly with color, exploring symbolic imagery, drawing simple objects, or engaging embodied seeing, the emphasis remains the same: awareness over outcome, attunement over accuracy. Over time, creative pressure softens. Perception deepens. A personal visual language begins to emerge through sustained attention and shared presence.

No art background is required. No particular skill level is expected. You do not need to identify as an artist to belong here. There is no critique, comparison, or pressure to produce anything finished. The emphasis is on presence, sensation, and relationship with creativity.

Session length: 90 minutes - All art materials are included.

Enrollment is limited to six participants to preserve the intimacy of the work. Once registered, you’ll receive a welcome email with further details as the start date approaches.
