Program:

We will start our retreat days with a beach walk and a sound healing meditation.

Every day there is around 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon our art retreat workshop.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

"There are no mistakes"

Everything is possible in the world of creativity, there are no mistakes. Often we are afraid of doing something wrong in our lives, it keeps us from going on, or starting something new.

"Be brave"

The creative process in our ART FEEDS SOUL workshop with fingers, rollers, spatulas, cloths ... bringing color to the canvas is a bold step to release this fear. Every splash of color is a choice and the braver we get, the happier the next step will be.

"Intuition" - the turning to oneself

There is no "wrong" in giving our guts a chance to express their intuition without evaluating this and the next brushstroke. This pausing in life and asking his body for advice on how it feels about itself right now is a "turn to itself". Because our body, our soul, our intuition know best what is good for us.

Stay in motion

.. we stay in motion. We either listen to our own inspirational music with headphones or listen to the rhythm of the music in the studio. When we feel like it, we dance in front of the screen and let our fingers dance across the screen with their eyes closed. Here, too, everything stays without evaluation, we stay completely with us, as if only we were in the room with our music.

"not perfect"

How many times in life do we try to be perfect ... In a world where the job profile requirement is formulated as if you were a state president, we often do not feel well enough. But the more we strive for perfection, the more the spontaneity in life suffers.

"To be spontaneous"

And spontaneity means feeling alive. In the ART FEEDS SOUL workshops, we consciously try to "not be perfect" but rely on our spontaneity, we leave the idea of having to paint something attractive or beautiful.

„Breathing" - honoring your body

Through breathing and mindfulness singingbowl meditations, we get a warm and loving feeling for ourselves over time. Among other things, we discover our feet and send a friendly "hello" to our hearts, so we come closer and closer to ourselves step by step.

"play on the canvas"

The ART FEEDS SOUL Workshop includes i.a. Material science, how to mix colors, without being "mushy", how to make your fingers, rags or spatulas dance across the screen, how to put your favorite words on the picture, or how fun it is to put a stamp on the canvas .. We play with lines, shapes, different brushstrokes and contrasts. We paint, we compose and destroy. We let go and start creating.

"Feel" - what do I need?

After applying some layers of paint to the canvas, we step back and ask our intuition - what do I feel here, does it still need a circle, a flower, something red? What is good now? I accompany my workshop participants step by step to more freedom, spontaneity and the arrival to themselves.

Do not ask what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you alive, and go and do that, because what the world needs are people who have come to life. "- Howard Thurman (author and philosopher, 1900-1981)
