Come and work with clay and journal to reconnect with your creativity in this special four-week workshop. Led by creativity mentor and mindset guide, Ayleen Bown, and ceramicist and art educator, Lorna Bode, this is your chance to learn how to express yourself in a gentle, creative space. This activity is a blend of quiet reflection, intention journaling, and meditative clay-making, designed to help you pause and breathe without any pressure or expectations.
In each session, you will learn how to:
  • Hand-build with clay – Master the basics of creating with clay through simple, guided exercises.
  • Practice intention journaling – Gently reflect and set intentions, helping you to connect with yourself on a deeper level.
  • Explore and express – There's no pressure to create something beautiful; this workshop is about enjoying the moment and the creative process itself.
This workshop is about so much more than what you will make. It's about remembering how to pause and feel, allowing you to reconnect with your creative flow. You'll leave each session with a renewed sense of calm and the skills to continue your creative journey at home.

female Women-owned

I inspire others to explore and ignite their own creativity. I have been teaching for 30 years and have inspired and nurtured hundreds of students. I’m an intuitive, sensitive educator and I love to share my knowledge and experience of working with clay with others. I’ve lived in France and Spain and raised an international family. I love all forms of nature and my students feel inspired and free to create their own clay art.
