10.30am Neurographic Art workshop

Our resident art expert Kay will guide you through the Neurographic intuitive session, which allows you to express your creativity and feelings through colour, movement and shapes. This process starts with a simple shape that is unique to you, you’ll be putting thought to paper in a way that expands healing, understanding of self, and self-awareness. Each aspect of the art will be unique to you. Under Kay’s expert hand, you’ll end up with a visual representation of your inner world. It could be surprising, it could be challenging, it could be beautiful – but it will be yours and yours alone.

Christina will introduce you to the modality of sound healing and the importance of listening, and how we could tune inwards into expansion.
