🌿🎨 Today’s art class: wellbeing through nature & creativity. Using leaves and flowers, we made nature patterns and autumn wreaths 🍂 Inspired by seasons changing, one participant said: “Do we have to stop? I want to keep doing this!” 💚

Gentle breezes blow. Coloured hues of red and gold…..
An Andrea Nelson inspired autumnal session this morning.
We began with a guided meditation reading about leaves falling and letting go, before beginning our therapeutic art session and ended with some Autumnal poems.

Today our ltc peer group took a reflective journey, looking deep into ourselves. We began our creative process with a meditation reading before drawing around our hands, reflecting on prompts given.
Our hands then held our words, our thoughts, our stories.

Today our peer group went on a journey of self reflection, which began with introducing two excellent resources the @space2breathe Resilience Tree model and @copescotland.bsky.social Battery Dude. We then got creative (and messy as we played with pastels) creating our own resilience tree.

Just a small group today for our therapeutic art group.
Group members arrived feeling a bit frustrated with their chronic pain and poor sleep so we decided on a mindful activity to calm busy minds, making neurographic style sunsets inspired by the work of Andrea Nelson.

An emotive challenging therapeutic art session. We began with self portrait photos which most found difficult to look at, as all self critical. We discussed the face we show others versus the face we often hide. Everyone tackled this in unique ways producing some brilliant work.

Art is truly a medicine.A quiet reflective peer session turned into hilarity. Some had low moods at start of session all had fun creating, connecting. If feeling low, disengaged, anxious give this a go. Everyone needs some funky roosters in their life.
Thankyou ExpressiveMonkey for inspiration.

Our longterm conditions peer wellbeing group experimented with creating Cubist style self portraits today. A creative process which focussed minds, boosted concentration, gave time to pause from daily worries and anxious thoughts.

Our Tarbert Gather group in the sun was another brilliant one - exercise in the barn at the back followed by coffee out the front in the sun 😎

We have been donated loads of wool recently, way way more than 3 bags full so decided to use some for yarn art. We embraced the perfectly imperfect way of working that we’ve been doing over recent weeks and enjoyed the process of making to calm a busy mind helping us be present.
Very mindful.

What a lovely crafting and connecting session in the sun.
Looking out for one another while relaxing the mind creating clay pieces and finishing off abstract canvases.
As the weather is so good we will have an outdoor Lochgilphead Public Living Room on Friday.
