Moving clouds: A Creative Project to Help Cope with Emotions

Moving clouds: A Creative Project to Help Cope with Emotions

Welcome to another course of “Creative Self-Care”, of how to make and use visual aids that help cultivate new habits and encourage more compassion and personal growth. I find that there are so many benefits to mixing some type of artsy activity or project with taking better care of ourselves, both physically and emotionally. This course dives into both of these cause if we feel good emotionally, we will be paying more attention to feeling good physically as well and vice-versa. What a win!

In course you’ll get to:

- Create some cloud shaped cards, through different mix-media materials

- Think about some of your recent negative thoughts or feelings

- Learn to be aware of them and pay attention to them

- Express them on paper

- Reflect on what or how you want to feel instead

- Write down your wishes and positive words to tell yourself

- Decorate a “cloud jar”

- Learn how to use these clouds in your everyday life

- The amazing benefits of creating some type of visual aid in conjunction with self-care

This course is for:

ANY and ALL levels of art. Anyone passionate about using their CREATIVITY to spark a little more joy and motivation to progress in SELF-CARE.

Materials needed:

- Grey card paper (or grey paints)

- White print paper

- Scissors

- Glue

- An empty jar

- Cotton or make-up swabs

- A pen

So for this project/class, you will DESIGN and CREATE your own little CLOUD JAR and PERSONALIZE it for your own FEELINGS and EMOTIONS, as you practice letting go of the negatives and welcoming and inviting the positives. Please SHARE your work and project photos with the rest of the community or drop me a question if you have any. Always happy hear from you.
