4 Week Online Course for Overwhelmed and Highly Sensitive to Release and Manage Stress and Anxiety without resorting to unhealthy habits using the power of expressive art journalling.
Expressive art journaling is by far the most effective way
to release those overwhelming emotions like stress, anxiety, grief, fear, anger and loneliness so that
you can improve your emotional resilience, making it easier to handle future emotional stressors with calm and clarity.
Emotional Awareness is the key to improved communication and
deeper relationships with self and your loved ones. (My loved ones have all thanked me!)
Is this YOU?
You are overwhelmed with responsibilities and feel like you are going crazy
and you know it is time to put yourself first but you don't know how.
You are tired of stress and anxiety stopping you from doing what you love.
You cry A LOT and wish to release the overwhelm and build up your emotional resilience.
You are quick to flare up with anger and you get irritable very easily and
this affects your relationships at home and at work.
You are fearful of your future and steeped in regret from the past
- you've forgotten how to live in the NOW.
You feel you are just existing and surviving and not thriving
Well I have you covered with this magical 4 week expressive art course!
The Art of Emotional Awareness will bring you deep self-understanding and
healthy strategies to release your challenging emotions before they take root
and stop you from living the life you deserve and desire.
Having suffered a series of traumatic events 5 years ago, I know all too well the valuable and therapeutic value of art and creative expression.
Art took me by the hand and stuck all my broken pieces together with glitter and gold, colour and creativity so that I can shine vibrantly and share my magic with the world.
Art took me on the heroine's journey which led me home.
It led me back to myself - my pure authentic and creative self.
It's time for you to do the same...so....
Are you ready for deeper emotional awareness?
It does not surprise me that many women are overwhelmed and engulfed by their emotions. We are not given an effective emotional education to help us navigate the modern world we live in.
Instead we are taught to:
numb
avoid
ignore and
pretend everything is fine, when it really isn't.
Drink the drink. Take the pill. Work long hours. Keep busy, busy, busy. Eat the cake. Go shopping. Binge watch TV. Talk non-stop. Don't talk at all.
Pretend everything is fine and your life is great.
If you are looking for healthy ways to proreduce self sabotaging beahcess your emotions so that you are emotionally available to your loved ones and yourself, then art journalling is the answer.
By the end of this course you will reduce self sabotaging behaviours and find yourself confidently handling stressful situations with more clarity, compassion and control.
The Art of Emotional Awareness will teach you how to:
