Welcome Back!
I’m so glad you made it here!
Visual Journal Journey can help you sustain your creative practice or jump-start your creative reflective practice if you have let art journaling fall by the wayside. Each Visual Journal Journey workshop offers new ways of approaching your art journaling. As an art therapist with over 20 years of experience helping others through art making, I have crafted art directives to help you get started and move beyond the blank journal page.
Though these workshops are not art therapy, they offer an opportunity for you to experience connection with your inner wisdom through art-making. I understand how important it is to spend some time reflecting on our art journaling so I offer reflective questions during the workshop to help you delve deeper into personal meaning in the privacy of your art journal.

I will be introducing more art journaling directives derived from positive psychology in order to support your creative self-care.
Some of the benefits of a Positive Psychology approach are:
- The pursuit of meaning and engagement enhance one’s life satisfaction.
- Positive thinking prepares one better for coping with stressful situations you may be faced with.
- Positive thinking and optimistic outlooks have been shown to Improve your immunity by decreasing stress responses.
- Positive thinking prepares one better for coping with stressful situations you may be faced with.
- Positive thinking can impact your overall well-being by increasing your emotional resilience.
When we tap into our creative power through art journaling we are in essence tuning into our inner wisdom and internal guidance system.
I love art journaling. It is my favorite go to when I need to unwind, de-stress, and release after a packed day. You know those days when it feels like your head is going to explode and you just need to turn off your brain? Those days always are better when I pull out my art journal and either release onto paper the day’s build up or process my feelings about the day through art making. Do you know what I mean? That’s where art journaling is so convenient, all you need is your art journal and a few drawing materials to get started. You can work on your kitchen table or even on the floor. This is why every year I hold this Visual Journal Journey art journaling series here in Toronto.
I know that time is a factor which can interfere with having a creative practice. It can be easy to lose site of the importance of self-care with all of the other things going on in our lives, that’s why I decided to create a special Art Journaling drop-in for people like you who have already been introduced to Visual Journal Journey and would like to maintain a creative self-care practice.
