Healing Meditation? · Art from the Heart ❤️

Healing Meditation?

Hey everyone!

I just finished putting together the "Getting Oily" course for you all and I'm fluttering around, puffing up cushions, making sure the shaggy circular rainbow 🌈 rug is in the right spot, hoping I've got the right mix of bean bags and sofas 🛋 so that I've created a fun, colourful, comfortable community space for everyone.

Tomorrow I'll start venturing out to the vast, strange fields of Social Media, sending invites and promoting this community, in eager anticipation of the art curious and confident creatives that might hear the call of "Art from the Heart❤️" and come along, contribute to this space and build a vibrant community!

Out in real life, when I run my art workshops, I include a meditation based on the work of Dr Dianne Divett (called 'Refocusing Therapy'). Back when I did this therapy and trained to run Refocussing Therapy sessions, what really spoke to me was the first part of the technique. Dr Divett called it "God Spaces" (she's written up an amazing PHD paper on all this for those who are interested). In this part of the therapy, mediation, visualisation and art are explored in really beautiful ways.

As not everyone has a spiritual side, I've adapted the technique to a 'Safe Space' mediation. I don't include the second part of Dr Divett's therapy in my workshops (the Refcoussing Therapy) as this tends to suite one on one work and goes a lot deeper than what I can offer in a group setting (or online).

So my question to all of you warmly welcomed new lovelies to this community, would you like the Safe Space Meditation:
