Find Your Calm © is an online program designed to help you find your inner calm by connecting with yourself and with nature.
Three nature and art lovers are coming together to share with you the joy of being #onewithnature. We are: Anisha, a yoga teacher, Vaishnavi, an art therapy practitioner and life coach, and Manya, an artist who specializes in natural colours and dyes.
WHY NOW?
This program is meant to be an inner journey and reunion with self and nature to find your calm. It’s already within you!
Finding our calm in the midst of chaos is the ultimate act of self-care that we need right now! If self-care sounds tough, you’re not alone. We want to make it doable, enjoyable and soothing.
Think of this daily commitment to self-care as a dose of love from you, to you! You deserve it.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
By connecting with nature, we connect with our (inner) true nature. We will connect with self and nature by getting in touch with the Five Elements of Nature (earth, fire, water, air, ether), progressively through the 8 days.
We will use breath, our hands working with natural materials, colour explorations, expressive art (process, not perfection!), visualizations and guided meditations, to aid us in this journey home to ourselves. To Find Your Calm.
FIND YOUR CALM & HELP OTHERS
As you take care of yourself, you can also help those in crisis. All of the proceeds from this program (minus taxes) will go towards our COVID Relief Fund. We are creating a pool of funds to donate to Hemkunt Foundation and Mission Oxygen - providing oxygen to those affected by COVID-19.
WHO IS THIS PROGRAM FOR?
Anyone who loves nature and loves expressing themselves creatively, and could use a dose of calm right now! This program isn’t just for “creative” people. We are all innately creative and can find - no, create - our own sense of calm from within.
TIMINGS & LOGISTICS
Once you register, you’ll get access to the recordings of the sessions, that you can follow along at your own pace.
