'FEELING WHEEL' WORKSHOP: therapeutic creativity & writing

Expand your emotional literacy and deepen your emotional connection through art and writing this January
About this Event

I don't know about you, but January brings up lots of emotions for me. Is this also the case for you?

Good news - I am running a workshop all about feelings this month!

In this workshop, you will get to learn how to use the FEELING WHEEL through art and writing.

✨Create your own feeling cards to deepen your understanding of how you feel. Write a message to the feeling at the back of your card, get to know it more, make friends with it and understand what it is trying to tell you.

👉🏼 In this creative therapeutic activity, I make reference to The Feeling Wheel developed by Dr Gloria Willcox. I use this as a practice for myself as well as with art therapy clients and in workshops.

💥 The Feelings Wheel can help you develop emotional literacy and identify and verbalize complex emotions.

Most importantly, understanding your emotions helps you realize there isn't something wrong with you; it's just something you are going through, which relieves a sense of helplessness.

Have you thought about your own emotional literacy? How well do you understand your feelings?

Join me on Wednesday 22nd January for this special workshop to deepen our understanding of our emotions and expand our emotional literacy together!

The workshop:

  • 2 hours of exploration, art, writing
  • Shoreditch, London
  • open to any one and any age
  • facilitated by an artist & art therapist
  • no art experience needed!
  • all art material will be provided!
  • tickets limited to 10 spaces only

Here is what participants shared about this workshop:

✨Very creative and reflective, it allows time and free space to just express.
✨Very good workshop, your reassurance that everyone can be creative and that there is no judgement was particularly helpful to me, thank you
✨Positive, caring and engaging a wonderful start to the week
✨I liked Denise’s calm energy, how she structured the workshop, it felt like 5 minutes, time passed so quickly and i learnt a lot about my emotions, very healing
✨ I always shied away from creativity, so attending today was not easy at first, but I have felt surprisingly comfortable, and feel this has opened a new door for me, that it’s possible
✨Easy to follow, clearly delivered and well paced. Very relevant to what I was expecting. Thank you!
