artful habit
Carry on with sustained artful practice aimed at fostering self-awareness, presence and growth
We often find it easier to establish new habits when we have a positive routine and a devoted space. These weekly sessions help you to carry on growing after your Artful Brain course. These sessions are relaxed and gentle, allowing you to keep using the studio and all of the materials.
Each week there will be a suggested practice, however, you are free to use the time to practice in your preferred way. Perhaps you will have a favourite project from the course already and want to spend your session doing that.
*Note, these sessions are only open for those, who have completed Artful Brain course
"Learning about my brain and how it's wired really helped me get behind myself, learning to give back so much compassion for the burnt out overwhelmed shell I'd become. Working closely together in a small group was nurturing and we were all fully engaged with supporting each other through challenges and celebrating the 'Aha' moments!
I highly recommend this course, in fact, I shall be doing it again!"

"I was open minded about the course, expected to practice some drawing skills and learn about the mind and creativity.
It was so much more!
Karine is so warm and passionate, she has experience and is highly knowledgeable about the science of the mind, her love of mindfulness meditation and enjoyment of art, which has enabled her to create a unique and inspiring course that has helped me make a shift in my perception of myself and that’s special.
Through insights about how we think and feel, the practice of gentle meditation techniques and simple creative expression exercises, I have learnt how I think, why I feel what I do, how I can use these lessons learnt with Karine to improve my sense of self, my well-being and confidence to express myself. Not just creatively but by knowing myself better I am more peaceful and accepting of all my perfect imperfections.
I’m looking forward to her follow up course!!
Be open to learning and Karine will gently take you on a fun journey of self discovery and increase your self awareness so you can be your best self. Just brilliant!!"

"The Artful Mindscape course has been transformational. The sessions are interesting and thought-provoking. All materials are provided including a course book and workbook for each session. I have come away with a bunch of new techniques and inspirations I can apply to any creative endeavour - and now I even understand a bit of the science behind it all. Highly recommended for anyone interested in art, artists and the brain"

"My gratitude for this course Karine, which I will never forget and use. You provide a comfortable and non-judgmental space to create and learn, and you have shared your knowledge so passionately and peacefully. I now have more clarity and insight into my life, emotions and thoughts. You offer such fun and simple art explorations with love, guidance and encouragement. Initially I thought I needed to be able to draw and be creative and did not know that using colour, texture and sound would pull me into the moment and notice sensations and emotions. The creative work is about the process rather than the end product! Using the activities you explored and taught on your course is more accessible to me to tame the mind from meandering off.
I really am looking forward to coming back and learning more artful mindfulness from you Karine."
