Christmas can be an emotional time, which can often clash with the expectations to celebrate, be “happy”, spend time with family & friends. But not everyone has someone to celebrate with.
The people we so want to be with, may no longer be here, or they’re simply too far away.
So many bittersweet feelings can accompany us at this time….

gratitude And longing
connection And disconnection
love And loss
fun And frustration
nostalgia And change

Whatever you are experiencing, know that it’s okay to have coexisting feelings, that visit as waves & trust you will be okay 🧡

This time of year can be tricky and challenging because the focus is often on connection, celebration, being social and productive. It is also a time that highlights the absence of loved ones who have passed away, who are no longer in connection with us for whatever reason, or simply too far away to spend time with.
We can be surrounded by others and at the same time feel pain, loneliness, and a yearning for people or situations that are no longer.
Finding gentle ways to settle ourselves can be really helpful…..spending time in nature, connecting to ourselves through the senses, engaging in creative practices, having opportunities to move our bodies and finding ways to be around other people that matches our capacity at this time.
I hope you are able to find gentle ways to take care of yourself and trust that you know what is right for you 🧡

I always have several creative projects on the go, as I like having options of what to make when my hands want to be busy.
Our brains often seek out novelty, which drives trying out something new.
This does mean I don’t always “finish” what I start!! But today, here’s a completed weaving 🧡

Join us for our final One Day Retreat of the year, on Saturday December 6th.

Grief can often arise around the Christmas & New Year season, which can feel challenging to navigate alone.

Our One Day Retreat offers an opportunity to connect with others, to lighten the load, experience the soothing nature of creativity & attend to any grief that is with us at this time.

All of us are creative in some way or another. It’s in our DNA to create with our hands. Our ancestors survived because of this innate ability.

The way we live now, has separated us from the necessity of expressing our creativity. Some of us dabble here and there but many do not.
This can leave us feeling incapable, not very creative and unable to even imagine where to start.

We really believe that everyone is creative and that all we need is an invitation and some gentle guidance to get us started.

In our workshops, we focus on the process and experience of weaving rather than the outcome. This takes any pressure off there needing to be a particular result.

Seeing people shift their view & experience of “I’m not creative” to getting absorbed into their weaving, is so heartwarming to witness.

Our final One-Day Workshop for 2025 is on Saturday 6th December.

In the lead up to Christmas, life can get busy & there can be many mixed feelings. We invite you to immerse yourself in a day of nourishment, mindfulness and creative exploration.

We love sharing these moments to come together in community, to create, connect and share stories. We believe there is power in women gathering & creating.

This workshop is designed to provide a safe, supportive space where you can reconnect with yourself and create a meaningful keepsake or perhaps a gift.

We will guide you every step of the way through the creative practices & no prior experience is needed to enjoy this workshop.
All creative materials & yummy refreshments provided.

Change is something that happens throughout life, is inevitable and brings with it a mixture of experiences.
We often think about loss and grief in relation to the big moments in life, however small losses accumulate and can be left unnoticed by ourselves and others. When we are unable to acknowledge our accumulated losses, we are left carrying them.
The list of changes that are accompanied by loss is so long and impossible to capture here.
I invite you to reflect on the changes in your life that include loss and bring that into your awareness, so you are not unconsciously carrying the load.
Sometimes simply acknowledging loss can be enough to start lightning the burden.
We welcome you to name a change that has led to loss in your life, in the comments, to help validate our shared experiences 🧡

I love having a little project that I can pick up for a few minutes at a time….a little work in progress…. just allowing it to unfold, enjoying the process and the soothing nature of weaving.

Rhythmic creative making practices, such as weaving, are known to have a calming effect on the nervous system & lower stress hormones. Many people find themselves getting absorbed in the process & having a break from their mind. I’m one of them!

Thanks also to for inspiring me to play around with pattern & texture 🙏

Memories can be evoked by many things and often through the senses. Could be from a sound, smell, a taste, sensation or something you can see or touch.
These experiences can lead us to a mixture of feelings, some that we welcome and others that are challenging.
Getting curious about how our memories show up for us can be helpful in understanding ourselves.
When I spot a gardenia, I’m aware that the smell takes me back to fond memories of childhood. Knowing this invites me to pause and have that moment of connection with my past 🧡

Sometimes when we’re feeling vulnerable or experiencing emotions that can be uncomfortable, there is an urge to move away from people, just take care of ourselves alone, not impose our feelings onto others and to keep ourselves separate.
Although this can, at times be what we need, finding the opportunities to connect with others who understand and welcome you however you are, is an important resource.
As social beings,our brains & nervous systems are designed for connection & can benefit greatly from spending time with people the feel safe.
Connection is the antidote to loneliness & helps to bridge the divide.
At weaving memories we really welcome you to come as you are, to connect, to be creative and to allow yourself to be nurtured.

Creative projects often take on a life of their own. This is the beauty of creativity, allowing yourself to be guided by what unfolds in front of you. It’s an opportunity to practice letting go, seeing where the process will take you and being more focused on the journey than the result. There’s something freeing about allowing ourselves to make in this way….
