'Clients will not necessarily have the words for the profound nature of what has happened to them, but this is the gift art therapy can bring.'

Last night at Maggio Lounge in Billericay the group painted ‘Matisse’s Olive Trees’. People come to me to say they are apprehensive because they never painted anything ever before and last night again we had evidences that it isn’t difficult, just give yourself a chance. What is so lovely too is when families come together to do the lesson (fathers, mothers, children, grandchildren, grandparents) and also groups of friends. All good fun.

Sharing NEWS:
FREE monthly creative wellbeing workshops for our Brentwood community, beginning this month with lovely organisation CREATE YOURSELF CALM. You can learn more about their work and approach on their website: www.createyourselfcalm.art

The workshops are for anyone over the age of 18. Each 90-minute workshop will include guided mindfulness exercises to help you ground yourself in the present moment and fully immerse you in the creative experience. You'll be encouraged to embrace the process rather than focus on the final outcome, allowing your creativity to flow freely.

They warmly welcome members of our local community who may need to take some time out for themselves in a supporting and nurturing environment. All materials are provided so there's no need to bring anything - just come as you are.

Places can be booked by clicking on the event link below, by emailing us at createyourselfcalm@gmail.com or by calling on 07768 650831.

🔥 Art therapy sessions could cut the risk of burnout by half, a study of London medics suggests.

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London and Barts Health NHS Trust worked with 129 doctors, nurses and other health professional from London hospitals to study the effects of group art therapy sessions.

They found that those who took part in the sessions reported much lower emotional exhaustion and depersonalisation, and less stress, anxiety and depression.
