Here’s How it works
Our Create & Chai session outline:
Log in for our monthly LIVE session via the link in your email (for casual bookings) or via your Create & Chai Member’s Studio
We’ll begin with an Acknowledgement of Country
I’ll share an intuitive card reading (using my card decks) to make things a little big magic and spesh!
Then, a short, guided mindfulness to tune into our presence & flow
I'll share some simple (optional) self-care intention prompts you might like to explore in your art-making
Now, we create in our own way, with whatever materials we bring along (see example BYO supplies further below 👇)
Afterwards, we'll share a little optional check-in about the art experience 💫

Your Facilitator
Hi, I’m Chrissy. I’m a late-diagnosed, highly sensitive, perimenopausal, cat-loving Autistic-ADHD artist, arts therapist and educator, with a Master’s in Therapeutic Arts Practice, Specialising in Arts-based Research.
As a sensitive, empathetic, kind-hearted giver, l know it can be challenging it can be to carve out time for our own needs and soulful regeneration.
With an intuitive, creative and highly sensitive nervous system, I need regular time to create freely, nourish my inner flow, align with my special interests and experience beautiful environments to help regulate my nervous system.
That’s why I created Art & Chai ... a regenerative online experience we can share together with likeminded people to relax, feed our creativity and enjoy some nourishing time-out.
Why Join Create & Chai?
✅ Sessions will include a balance of mindful prompts and free-time for your creativity, to help remind you to stay in the process of relaxed art-making (I know it’s easy to approach all tasks with an outcome-based, perfectionist mindset!).
✅ It’s a gift you can give yourself every month. A time to slow down, immerse yourself in a supportive, inspiring environment and take time for some active rest.
✅ Art & Chai is a beautiful, nourishing and accessible way to carve out some time for creativity & Self-Care. If we don’t make time for nourishing regeneration, who will?
✅ Each month, we will gather together via zoom to breathe a sigh of relief, be in good company and get back into our flow, which is easily depleted in our busy day-to-day lives.
✅ By the end of each slow-paced session, you can easily imagine feeling so much more relaxed, lighter, grounded, and refreshed. Yay!
I'm so excited. My tummy feels both soft and relaxed about sharing this time with you.
✅ Oh, and did I mention, you’ll have access to some FREE downloadable colouring in pages, inspired by my artworks?

Important Note👇
Please note, Create & Chai is not a step-by-step guided art tutorial, or an art therapy class. It's a relaxed, low-key get-together with simple creative prompts you can explore in your own way.
As a participant, it is essential to hold yourself with self-care and feel free to take time out whenever you need during the live workshop. I am unable to provide individual support during group experiences. This program is not a substitute for professional therapy.
