Why I created the Create sessions.

We live In a ‘hyper-hustle’ world. It’s hard to carve out quality time to develop yourself. Create is the opportunity for you to stop and take that time while having creative fun.

We are working from home a lot more, struggling to switch off and feeling the disconnect of the evermore over-connected lives. We’ve lost something.

Specific phrases are circulating at the moment that I hadn’t heard until the last few years; terms like burnout, mental health, self-care and work-life balance. These are powerful concepts, and it is great that we are talking about them. However, there are few opportunities to understand what to do with our self-care and work-life balance.

That’s why I invite you to CREATE.

Self-care is your fuel ... Whatever the road ahead or the path you’ve taken, self-care is what keeps your motor running and your wheels turning.
— Melissa Steginus
 
 
  • The aim of GROW is to bring people together, whilst giving people a place to switch off.

    learning about what you can do to help you and your work-life balance is a bonus.

  • If you are feeling overwhelmed, burnt out or a bit lost these sessions can help you recentre and process what you are going through.

    In this non-judgemental psychologically safe space you can contribute as much or as little as you are comfortable doing.

  • • Firstly you get to switch off and create. So you will take with you a sense of catharsis and calm.

    • Tools to help you when you manage overwhelmed, review and reset.

    • New connections, as you will meet like-minded people who are going through what you are

    • An authentic foundation of self-awareness.

 

CREATE Sessions

Create is the regular DPA “Switch-off, switch it up and learn something new” session.

The main aim is to give people the opportunity to take part, create and switch off. All of these activities will include creativity in some way, such as:

  • Painting

  • Collaging

  • Photography

All ability levels are welcome and encouraged to join.

  • Tap into your creativity.

    Tap into your creativity, unleash yourself from pre-conceived limits, and harness the power of understanding and healing with creativity.

  • Learn new things.

    “Never stop learning because life never stops teaching”… learning about art and design is the big juicy cherry on the sundae of fun.

  • Have fun and play.

    In these relaxed sessions, you can kick back, experiment and enjoy the process. What’s the point in life if you can't have fun, hey!

"It proved to me I can do things like this and be sociable and friendly without worrying because those feelings have held me back sometimes in life"

“I can't remember the last time I had that much fun and relaxation and Learned something about myself too!”
