EVENT STRUCTURE

In each class you will have the opportunity to:

​

• Engage in a brief meditation while taking a collective breath and setting the intention for the evening

• Receive a beginner-level art lesson while practicing the mindful theme of the evening

• Express your thoughts and feelings with the group

• Re-engage with the collective breath—with a closing gratitude & loving awareness meditation 

• Release, let go, and allow as we say goodbye

BEING PRESENT

I believe it is important to set up your creative space and set boundaries for yourself and loved ones in order to be fully present in the moment​.

​

Suggestions to set up your space:

​

• A quiet space and time set aside for you spend about a hour and a half with us

• A table or flat space that is big enough to accommodate all of your painting tools

• A comfy chair, pillow, or yoga ball to sit on

• Light a candle if you can

• A delightful comforting beverage—depending on your mood (mine is either a glass of wine or an iced matcha)

• Let your friends and family know you will be unavailable for a couple hours

• Set your devices on silent if you can

• Wear comfy clothes/clothes you don’t mind getting paint on

• If you are a sage crystal person (like I am) please feel free to set those up in the way that feels best for you
