Event description
We can't wait to create with you!
We are gathering to pause and reset. In this workshop, we will be immersed in the magic of nature, birds, and flowers and welcome the energy of spring.
About the event
Immerse yourself in this fusion of creativity and nourishment at our Mindful Art and Cacao Workshop. Join us for an experience in community where Art and the heart-opening powers of ceremonial cacao come together to awaken your senses and ignite your creative spark.
In this workshop, we invite you to embark on a journey of self-expression, guided by the transformative power of Mindful Art and the heart-opening properties of Cacao. Allow yourself to be transported to a realm of inspiration and exploration as you dive into the magical combination of these two ancient practices.
Together, we'll create a sacred space where you can connect with your inner artist and experience the deep, grounding effects of cacao. Through guided meditations and mindful rituals, we'll cultivate a sense of presence and open ourselves to the creative flow that resides within.
With a paintbrush in one hand and a cup of warm, ceremonial cacao in the other, you'll be guided through art exercises and techniques that encourage self-expression and self-discovery. Tap into your intuition, let go of expectations, and allow the cacao to nourish your spirit as you discover where your creativity can take you under the influence of the brightest full moon of the year.
With the support and guidance of experienced Art coach, you'll learn to embrace the process, trust your creative instincts, and witness the beauty that emerges from the merging of cacao and art as we gather in a warm and supportive community.
Whether you're an experienced artist looking for a fresh source of inspiration or a beginner eager to explore your artistic side, this workshop welcomes all levels of skill and experience. Immerse yourself in a rich sensory experience, where the aroma of cacao and the vibrant colours of your artwork intertwine, leaving you feeling grounded, inspired and creatively awakened.
Join us for this transformative Mindful Art and Cacao Workshop, where the alchemy of art and the nourishing power of cacao come together to awaken your soul's creative essence. Discover self-expression, find inspiration in the depths of your being, and leave with a deeper connection to your creative spirit.
