These days to De-stress is very important. So Adult colouring and mapping out your heart exercises became very popular and are recommend by art therapists.
Mapping out your heart, is a wonderful exercise to not only find out truly what is important to you, but also what you love and don;t love.
It is playful learning and I encourage you to try it out! Let’s map out out hearts!
Below you see what is important to me. I did not colour the heart out but you can do it if you like. You can use different colours to write it down, or images that represent what ever you pick.
The idea of mapping out your heart, comes form a wonderful book by Georgia Heard-Awakening the Heart
After you mapped your heart out, feel free to share it with me on my social media or send an email including a picture with your heart!
Recently I was teaching a De-Stress Workshop on HANDS on BRISBANE so come check us out, there are plenty of workshops you might like!

Do you remember when talking at the phone you were scribbling on a piece of paper and no big deal…
Yes, well this little action has a great impact on our brain and mind. I encourage you to try it out, next time you are on the phone.
So let’s try something simple like a few lines and curves, etc….
Draw on a piece of paper with a black ink or simple pen.
Let’s go, relax and create lines and see what will happen. Do not think and simply create.
Now if you feel uncomfortable and do not really understand doodle art you can visit Pinterest and check out doodle art! It is fun and I call this platform the black hole coz once you are on Pinterest, you will need a while to leave it! Don;t worry you are not alone!
Now you can doodle in watercolour, in ink , in pen , etc….
