A Monthly Experience
This relaxing creative workshop is an all time favorite at Liverpool Art Center.
RELAX AND ENJOY
A GUIDED MEDITATION
PAINT WITH HEALING ENERGY
Meditation can be enhanced by engaging the senses and surroundings. We use music, aromatherapy and lighting to create a comfortable setting.
We use subtle, relaxing, rhythmic music that makes the body want to move to the beat. With active meditation you want the movement to be repetitive and not require any thought. If you don’t have music, try repeating simple song lyrics or nursery rhyme that keeps a beat in your head.
The supplies we use in meditative are acrylic paint, brushes and canvas. Together, these materials provide smooth blending opportunities and an easy handling of the surface.
Others may use pastels, watercolor or chalk on paper with success.
I like to remind participants that we have one objective in this painting and that is to:
Paint nothing!
They always feel relieve. The pressure to produce a masterpiece is alleviated.
The purpose in that statement is to help them let go of the desire to draw/paint recognizable objects.
With this technique, we want to feel the texture and color of the paint as it blends. That’s it.
I usually begin with a demonstration and some tips on applying the paint. I suggest that filling the brush a lot will help keep the canvas wet long enough to cover the entire canvas and still be able to “play” with blending until we are finished. So don’t be shy with the paint; but try not to pile it into a sculpture as that would take days to dry.
And we begin……..
So, if you can close your eyes and imagine that you’re sitting in a chair and you are seated at a table that is all set for you to begin painting. Relaxing aromas and beautiful music begin to relax you into “being in the moment”.
The final step before painting is a “verbally guided meditation” designed to help you relax your body and let go of all stress and expectations of the experience.
Allow yourself to let go & experience the colors blending, the music soothing and your thoughts drifting.
Using a wide brush, we fill the entire canvas with several colors of paint from our palette. Continue moving to the rhythm until you feel you are done.
Most participants sit quietly reflecting what they created. This is a unique experience that reflects self-awareness, growth and healing deep within you.
Often we will share a few moments afterward. Most people want to talk about how they feel as certain colors blended. The meditation can bring up powerful emotions for many people.
