Ever heard about 'in essence' , meaning 'fundamentally'?

Well, this workshop is about getting back in touch with the essence of your Be-ing; about tapping into your creative power, bypassing the mind, getting into your flow zone.

A combination of meditation, tapping, guided visualisation, nourishing refreshments and journaling will help you paint/create freely and effortlessly; from the heart. It will be filled with emotion and intention - all while learning more about yourself, growing personally & evolving into the person you know you are inside while experiencing the joy of your creative imagination. We are all meant to shine, to be creative, intuitive & inspired!

Try new things, surprise yourself :). There is nothing better than proving yourself wrong in the best way, is there?! Within a safe, non-judgemental space, where you and like-minded souls are free to explore beauty & colour as well as challenging feelings, with guidance you'll go from 'I could never' to 'wait, I did this!' - all in a hands-on and light-hearted way with a wellbeing mentoring/coaching element. Your creation is about growth & pure discovery - without pressure.  

Don't worry about the 'blank canvas' - if you need it, we can together dive into ideas & techniques to get started, with a little bit of my creative questioning.

The experience will involve
* guided visualisations/ meditation for inner child & personal power exploration
* short writing exercises & coaching to explore inspiration
* intuitive guidance & tools to unblock stagnant energy
* intuitive painting (all materials provided)
* light refreshments
* take home gifts & your artwork

Whatever unfolds is relating to our energies in the moment and our true nature within. It is a spontaneous process and it can help you to gain insights, release tension, feel joy, have fun and relax to calm the mind - which in turn reduces stress and anxiety.

This 3,5 hour well-being workshop with all material included, also includes light refreshments and is offered at an energy exchange of only £42 (plus £1.50 booking fee)

Places are limited - book now to avoid disappointment! :)

Don't just take my word for it -- here's what others have said from the previous workshops!

"Thank you Femke. The session was a truly magical journey of learning + discovery from childhood through fear, safety and knowing that we are enough which translated into making some powerful meaningful artwork"

"I never imagined I could experience such a shift in energy in such a short time – thank you"

"I felt being welcomed in, it was calming & I felt at ease because of your clear communication and allowing for self expression"

"Refreshments & time to relax or journal throughout, lunch was amazing and so bonding too"

"I’ve found it very cathartic, even though I had some difficult emotions to deal with, going back to my childhood. I’ve enjoyed the session and feel lighter inside"

"I would have been happy to have had more time there!"

“What a lovely event. The combination of meditating taking yourself back to your childhood and then painting what you feel. I haven’t painted since being at school; it was so liberating being able to paint again! Thank you, I will definitely be coming again”

I am so looking forward to connecting here with you soon!

With love & gratitude xx

Presenter BIO

Femke Adrienne Williams is a caring Soul & Wellbeing Artist, Therapist & Mentor with a passion for life and helping others deeply heal & recover from physical pain, burnout & emotional fatigue. She runs workshops in Wellbeing and Intuitive Art, Chakradance Classes (moving & somatic meditation), and Retreats, and focuses on helping herself and others create positive transformation from the inside out. She believes that we are able to co-create with the Universe, and is trained as a nurse, an energy healer and burnout/fatigue recovery specialist, with deepened understanding of the mind-body-spirit-soul connection.

Femke returned to painting in 2018, as a much earlier unsettling experience had left her struggling to express how she was feeling ever since. She was already working with colour & the chakras (our main energy centres), and with painting she communicates the healing properties of colour & the creative process.

She enjoys continuous learning and talks about ways that the human energy systems can support & help heal our physical, mental, emotional & spiritual health. When she’s not getting super passionate about her favourite topics of alignment, embodiment, Chakradance, connection, deeper purpose, joy, creativity & art, she loves to go up into playing the piano, horse riding, journaling, spending time with her family & cats, and travel.
