CREATIVE CALM: A day retreat to restore your nervous system with mindful painting and conscious breathing I believe that art comes from the heart, and not from judgement. It comes from love and from a deep connection to our soul, and that looks different from each one of us. When we find that connection, everything starts to flow.
When we paint what we love, time just stops. We find flow and we enter that beautiful zone of calm, peace and zero thoughts. In this retreat, it is my intention to guide you towards what your heart wants to paint.
We will paint in watercolour, ask questions, reflect, and find out what sparks joy inside.
We start with a beautiful breath and meditation session that calms the mind and brings peace.
You do not need any previous experience in either watercolour painting or meditation, this is a beginner friendly retreat. Be prepared to… • let go of old beliefs that you can’t paint and you are not creative + become a master at tuning into what you most love
• paint from your heart, not from your mind, free of judgement
• create art from a calm space, tune into your body and feel what sparks joy in you.
This retreat features:
✧ An Opening Breathwork + Meditation Session
✧ Two Mindful Watercolour Sessions, one before and one after lunch
✧ A Fine Selection of Teas to enjoy throughout the day
✧ Delicious Homemade Vegetarian Lunch Buffet
✧ A Watercolour Kit that’s yours to keep
✧ A Closing Guided Relaxation to wrap up the Day
“Wonderful day. I didn’t think I could paint but Kristina made it so easy. Thank you!” Caroline
“I discovered I could paint! I have always thought I was rubbish at painting, but I have been inspired to give painting more of a go. Kristina was a thoughtful, inspiring and patient teacher. I would highly recommend her workshops. You don’t need to have any previous experience of painting to produce something that is wonderful.” Chloe
“I have taken part in two workshops and both have given me so much more than making art. Kristina offers a safe, relaxing space for you to have the confidence to create.” Jeanette
“It was so relaxing.. Kristina’s voice is so calming and she explained everything so well and provided what was needed..the results were beautiful and made me reflect on painting mindfully. I was so relaxed at the end. The people were lovely too.” Denise
