Craft Workshops - COMING SOON!

Service Description

PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL AT THE MOMENT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO BOOK A CLASS! Book in for a conversation around mindfulness, and at the same time, learn the fundamentals of crochet, knitting or sewing. The power of craft and other creative pursuits, such as art, in calming the mind and balancing the right and left hemispheres of the brain, cannot be understated. The focus and repetitive actions required can be likened to meditation in which the gaze and mind hold a point of focus, as the body relaxes, the breath lengthens and your thoughts are quietened for a time. In many ways, mindfulness can also be incorporated - consider the sensory stimulation of colour, texture, etc. In this session, you will start working on a beginner's crochet, knitting or sewing project that we will have discussed beforehand. Materials and tools will be made available to you for the class and are included in the price of the workshop, although other kits and materials will also be available for you to explore and purchase. Learn to make a variety of things! The techniques you will learn can then be applied to many future projects and patterns, as your hobby takes off. At the same time, in this session you will develop an appreciation for how both mindfulness and meditation can be incorporated more consciously into your craft. Important: please book a Free Pre-Therapy Conversation beforehand to discuss your preferences for a project, as well as any wellbeing goals. This is a small, friendly class of no more than 2 people at a time! The projects are also modern, and the materials of excellent quality.
