"I was open minded about the course, expected to practice some drawing skills and learn about the mind and creativity. 

It was so much more!

Karine is so warm and passionate, she has experience and is highly knowledgeable about the science of the mind, her love of mindfulness meditation and enjoyment of art, which has enabled her to create a unique and inspiring course that has helped me make a shift in my perception of myself and that’s special. 

Through insights about how we think and feel, the practice of gentle meditation techniques and simple creative expression exercises, I have learnt how I think, why I feel what I do, how I can use these lessons learnt with Karine to improve my sense of self, my well-being and confidence to express myself. Not just creatively but by knowing myself better I am more peaceful and accepting of all my perfect imperfections. 

I’m looking forward to her follow up course!!

Be open to learning and Karine will gently take you on a fun journey of self discovery and increase your self awareness so you can be your best self. Just brilliant!!"

"Well what a wonderfully knowledgeable, kind and calm human Karine is. I thoroughly enjoyed her five week ‘Knowing Yourself’ workshop, giving time for myself and always coming away feeling relaxed and inspired. I was initially concerned signing up as I am not an artist, but you really don’t have to be or even know anything about art to do this course. 

The balance of Karine’s studies in neuroscience, mindfulness & art made this course really different and very interesting. We all have something going on in our lives and these workshops give you the knowledge, tools and nourishing food for thought to take home with you. 

Karine coaches you through the five topics and creates a safe environment where you feel you can share your thoughts if you want to but also stay quiet if you wish. Being a small group she allows time to just chat which adds to the relaxed & warm feeling of the course. 

If you are looking to give yourself some self love, growing your self awareness while learning some interesting neuroscience and mindful art practices, this course is for you. You will feel so much better than you did the day you started, I certainly have."

"My gratitude for this course Karine, which I will never forget and use. You provide a comfortable and non-judgmental space to create and learn, and you have shared your knowledge so passionately and peacefully. I now have more clarity and insight into my life, emotions and thoughts. You offer such fun and simple art explorations with love, guidance and encouragement. Initially I thought I needed to be able to draw and be creative and did not know that using colour, texture and sound would pull me into the moment and notice sensations and emotions. The creative work is about the process rather than the end product! Using the activities you explored and taught on your course is more accessible to me to tame the mind from meandering off. 

I really am looking forward to coming back and learning more artful mindfulness from you Karine."
