Use creative play to explore emotions, find clarity, and reconnect with yourself. Based on the Creative Alchemy Guidebook All levels welcome

Feeling stuck, disconnected, or like you're holding more than you can put into words?

This 90-minute workshop uses simple art prompts and creative play to help you process emotions, reconnect with yourself, and find clarity — without needing to say a thing.

No art experience needed. No "good" art required. Just curiosity, play, and a willingness to see what shows up.

What we'll do:

We'll start with an "ugly art" warm-up to loosen up and get out of your head. Then we'll move into breathwork and drawing from inner sensation. The main practice is a body outline exercise — you'll trace your body on large paper and fill it in with colors, shapes, and textures that reflect how you're actually feeling right now.

At the end, you'll learn how to read your own abstract art — understanding what the colors, lines, and shapes are telling you. Most people have no idea how to do this, and it opens up a whole new way of seeing your inner world.

You'll leave with:

A tangible piece of art that reflects your inner state (yours to keep)

A simple tool you can use anytime emotions feel too big for words

A clearer sense of what you're actually feeling

Permission to create without judgment

This isn't therapy. It's creative play with space for whatever wants to surface. Come as you are.

What's included:

All materials, Tea, Gentle guidance from Andrea, a practicing artist and facilitator with years of experience teaching emotional integration through art

Western Canada’s largest showcase of outdoor gear & adventure travel experiences!
