ZOOM DOODLE & YOGA NIDRA

ZOOM DOODLE & YOGA NIDRA is designed to be a low-impact mixed media art class focused on creativity & wellbeing. We will “art” together LIVE for about 60 minutes followed by guided meditation with my amazing co-host, Emilie Jordao!

At the end of the course, you will have a collection of ten miniature paintings, which can be held together by an oversized binder ring or bit of ribbon or twine.

In this course, you will:

• Enjoy LIVE mixed media art classes with Renée followed by guided meditation with Emilie.
• Focus on relaxation & connection rather than perfection.
• Use whatever you have on-hand for supplies: watercolor, markers, colored pencils, scraps of paper to collage, stamps, stencils.
• Learn to use your creativity to support your wellbeing.
• Receive access to class replays via private links.
• Have the opportunity to share your work within a safe, creative community.

Weekly classes run consecutive Thursdays thru December 12, 2024.

• Set up & sign in as early as at 6:45pm to check-in LIVE with others
• Class meets at 7 PM – 8:30PM
• (NOTE: We will not meet LIVE on Thanksgiving, but you will receive a pre-recorded bonus lesson to enjoy!)

This is not a stuffy, formal guided session; it’s learning by doing. After we “art” together, participants will have an opportunity to share their creations. Then, we will regroup to enjoy 15-20 minutes of guided meditation with Emilie.

If you’d like to develop an art practice in a relaxed atmosphere from the comfort of your own home, you’re warmly invited to join the fun.

During our time together, we will focus on eliminating negative self-talk, trusting our intuition, trying new techniques and — most importantly — gathering together with like-minded people online for relaxation and play. And while I always encourage people to experiment with watercolor, acrylic and multimedia, all you really need to participate is an open mind and a few basic supplies.

If you *really* want to know which supplies I fancy, here is a list of some of my faves.
