The weekend flow: 🎨🧘🌿
Friday

🎨 Watercolour adventure walk to the river
We will take a slow-paced stroll to the local Ōtaki River together and stop along the way at some beautiful, scenic spots to create some watercolour art guided by our host Neve.
🪨 Positive habits + rock painting workshop with Karuna
This workshop will start with an opportunity to reflect on your values and priorities in life and a chance to learn about how to build and stick to positive habits. You will then create your own visual daily habit tracker through the medium of rock painting to help you work towards your goals and become the best version of yourself.
🍲 Lunch
🍷 Paint & Sip with Neve
This event will start with a calming warm-up activity where we will explore the playful combination of painting along to various types of music. Then we will flow into creating a master ' peace ' inspired by things that bring us peace and joy on a canvas while we sip on chai or mocktails (tbc!)

A grounding guided meditation in the native bush to de-stress and connect with nature. After this we will create some collaborative mandalas using the meditation as inspiration for our creations.
✏️ Breathe & Draw art workshop with local artist Anja
Our (Beginner-friendly)Breathe and Draw workshop will be an art class focusing on drawing itself rather than the outcome of your work. This class is all about turning inner chaos into calm, visual order through mindful drawing. Starting with simple, spontaneous lines and adding as we go
