CONARÉ EXPRESSiVE ART & WELLNESS is a 9-week course that meets LIVE via ZOOM on Thursday nights at 7-9PM ET with replays being sent immediately after class.

What is CONARÉ about?

Co-created by Holistic Health Coaches Renee Schuls-Jacobson & Emilie Jordao, CONARÉ is an acronym for our comprehensive method of self-exploration & healing which requires a willingness to:

• • Create – We engage creativity as a pathway to self-expression, exploration, and gentle transformation—no special artistic experience required.
• • Open – We create space for curiosity, possibility, and new ways of relating to ourselves and our inner world.
• • Nourish – We support the nervous system through rest, presence, and practices that replenish rather than deplete.
• • Attune – We listen inwardly, learning to recognize emotional signals, body wisdom, and intuitive guidance.
• • Release –We safely express and move emotions that have been held, allowing what no longer serves to be gently released.
• • Express – We give form to what lives inside through art, movement, and voice—honoring your unique way of being seen and felt.

CONARÉ is for everyone, and especially designed for anyone experiencing a major life stressor —  a loss, a chronic illness or injury, for people who may be stuck indoors for whatever reason — and for those who want to learn tools for emotional regulation & neuroplasticity.

EXPRESSiVE ART CLASSES are facilitated by Artist/Author/Holistic Brain Health Recovery & Creativity Coach, Renee Schuls-Jacobson, and they are suitable for creatives at every level — beginner, intermediate & experienced. During our time together, we will experiment with new techniques, work on eliminating negative self-talk, learn to trust our intuition, & gather with a non-judgmental community for relaxation & play. Work from the comfort of your own home, at your own pace, using whatever supplies you have on-hand: watercolor, markers, colored pencils, acrylic paint, scraps of paper & glue, (for collage), stamps, stencils.

NERVOUS SYSTEM WELLNESS offerings are facilitated by Emilie Jordao, an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and Holistic Psych Med Withdrawal Coach who combines nervous system–informed practices, holistic health, and embodied tools to support people through tapering and life transitions. Her work is rooted in lived experience, compassion, and community.
