Finished my zine this morning ✂️📖🤍
As often, yesterday I started without a plan.
I rarely do.
I just follow intuition and somehow, by the end, everything begins to make sense.
What I love most from these creativity sessions is feeling completely detached from the outcome. Without a specific goal, there’s no pressure… only surprise. And once I’m done, the result starts speaking — to me. It might not speak to you, and that’s okay. And it is not perfect, it is what I would call „perfect imperfection“. Every page resonates with me in its own way. Some feel comforting, others uncomfortable. Some colors, quotes, or images trigger emotions or thoughts I didn’t expect.
Beyond the meditative moment of creating — being fully present, hands busy, mind quiet — there’s this deeper layer: observing how you react to what you have created. It becomes a subtle self-development practice.
As Gabriela explained during the session, zines go far beyond creativity or producing a material object. If you surrender to the process (and stop overthinking), they become little companions — mirrors into your thoughts, reactions, and patterns.
Yes, they’re beautiful in the end. You can even decorate your home with them, some people do! 😉
But they’re also beautiful to create together — with friends, family, even children. I made some during Christmas with my niece, and it was really, really fun 🤍
Gabriela will be organizing more zine sessions soon at Le Studio if you’d like to explore this world. 2 dates are already scheduled, next one will take place on March21st and will be a „spring special edition“ 🌷
And in the meantime — if you feel called to combine yoga, meditation, and creativity through a vision board — you’re very welcome to join me on 21 February at Le Studio.
We’ll explore what the Year of the Horse 2026 could mean for us… or better, intentionally set what we want it to be 🐎✨
