Rewire and Rewind with Neuorographica - Friday Wellbeing

Neurographica is a mindful activity that merges art with psychology. It aims to transform stressful situations into feelings of calm and empowerment all the while doing something meditative and creative where the end product is not the end goal.

No art experience is required which is good news if you believe you 'cannot draw'. We will not be drawing anything, we will be using pens to process and shift emotions and using the space to have some 'me time'.

You will have a blank piece of paper with a black marker/sharpie and use it to blend a scribble with lines and rounding and finally adding circles to integrate a stressful situation. This session often ends up with you processing this situation and feeling calmer about it.

Anyone can take part, it's recommended you come with a theme in mind that perhaps gives a stress level of 5 out of 10, therefore not something too triggering. Come with an open mind and an open heart and we will have a cuppa towards the end and a chat if you would like to stay for that.

Debbie from Safe Mind Counselling will be the facilitator for this session.

This session is being held on Friday 5th June 10-11.30am, in The Place to Pause & Breathe, Bonnybridge. This includes a break for a hot drink, biscuits and a chat.

These sessions are free, as they have been funded by Falkirk Communities Mental Health & Wellbeing. They are designed to support participant's overall health and wellbeing, increasing community connections and reducing loneliness. Although they are free, please only book in if you are definitely attending as numbers are limited. If you do book in and then can't make it please cancel your booking, as we may have people on the waiting list. If you'd like to come along but it feels difficult, please get in contact to enquire about our befriending service: susie@pauseandbreathe.co.uk
