You belong where you feel most like yourself 🦋

The last few years have taught me this: belonging isn't about fitting in....

You belong where you don't have to pretend, where you don't have to mask. Where being authentically you is not just accepted, but loved 💙

Hey everyone 💙

Just got back from a few days in the ngahere... might be a bit slow getting back to messages and emails over the next couple of days as I ease back into this side of the universe 😄🌳

P.S. If you know anyone who needs some self-care time, I still have a couple of spaces in my "Thread Your Truth" stitching workshop next weekend!

Feeling overwhelmed?
😵‍💫💭😓🌀🫠

These gentle practices can help ground, release tension, and give your mind a much-needed break.

Just 5 minutes. No pressure. No need for perfection

Start small - even tiny moments of creativity can make a difference 🫶

Why arts therapy is amazing for teens ✨

Honestly? Working with teenagers is one of my favorite things. It's challenging, rewarding, and they surprise me every single session.

The teen years are tough - so much change, pressure, identity stuff, BIG feelings. Arts therapy gives them a way to process it all without having to have the perfect words.

Swipe to learn why it works so well for this age group 🌻

Our emotions don't follow a schedule..... You can have a good day and still feel sad. You can be grateful and still grieve.

There's no "right" time to feel what you feel. Your emotions are valid, even when they don't seem to match the moment.

If you're feeling this way, I see you. You're not broken, you're not too much, and you're not alone in this. Sometimes the bravest thing we do is simply let ourselves feel 🫶

Craving some downtime? A quiet pause from the everyday rush?

This workshop is your permission slip to slow down. We'll spend 4 hours stitching words we want to hear or say into fabric - gentle, mindful, grounding.

Together we'll:
✨ Drop into meditation
✨ Enjoy yummy snacks and hot tea
✨ Create in community

Whether you're seeking quiet reflection or connection (or both!), there's space for you here 💙

•Sat 22nd Nov 10.30am- 2pm
•$35 pp
•Limited spaces-reach out to book
