About this Event
Sometimes the most effective way to reset the nervous system isn’t through stillness - it’s through creativity.
In this gentle creative wellness class, we’ll begin with a simple breathing and movement-based drawing exercise designed to help release tension and bring the mind into focus. From there, we’ll transform your expressive lines into calming patterns and shapes using drawing or watercolor.
You’ll leave with a unique piece of artwork and practical tools for using creativity as a way to reduce stress and reconnect with a sense of calm.
This class focuses on the process of creating, not making perfect art.
No art experience needed. All supplies are included.
About the teacher:
Cat Thomas, MAT is an Artist & Expressive Arts Facilitator based out of Chattanooga, TN.
15 years ago, Cat intuitively began using art and writing as a therapeutic tool in her personal life. Once she experienced the true potential art has to heal the mind, body & spirit, Cat enrolled in the Expressive Arts Florida Institute in Sarasota, FL. After taking a weekend long intensive there, she knew her purpose was not only to create her own art, but to increase individual and community health & wellness by using the arts as a tool for healing, personal growth & self-discovery.
Since finishing her training in 2015, Cat has worked with 1000’s of people helping them connect with their creative selves so they may gain the therapeutic benefits of doing something creative. From working as an Artist in Residence at cancer center for close to 10 years to partnering with a local community to create a collaborative neighborhood street mural, Cat enjoys working with a variety of populations, and truly believes that when given the opportunity to create in a safe, supportive and nonjudgmental space people can transform their lives from the inside out.
