✨ Brush & Chai – Mindfulness Art for Carers ✨
Yesterday, I had the joy of co-facilitating a mindfulness art session with Husna, beautifully organised by the Centre for Muslim Wellbeing .
Around two and a half hours, I guided participants through a process of slowing down, turning inward, and expressing themselves using acrylic on canvas. The energy in the room was powerful—each canvas revealed a completely unique version of the same image, reflecting how every carer brought their own colours, shapes, and stories to the space.
As emotions naturally surfaced through the creative process, Husna thoughtfully held the closing 45 minutes, containing and supporting the group so that participants could leave feeling grounded, safe, and uplifted.
In art, there is no right or wrong—whatever flows from within is valid and meaningful. 🌿🎨
With around 12 participants, the Brush & Chai – Mental Health Care for Carers session was deeply moving and such a success. We’re excited to offer it again soon!
Swipe through the images to see the expressive, heartfelt canvases that emerged. 💜
