Join hosts Melissa Huestis and Monique Ross for a special day of calm, creativity, and connection, held in a private, air-conditioned venue in Yeronga.
Spaces for this workshop are limited to 9 places to ensure an intimate environment with plenty of time for 1:1 support as you learn.
No mindfulness, origami or weaving experience is needed — just come along, slow down, create, and enjoy a little space for yourself before the year draws to a close.
We begin with origami card making
We'll start with a short guided grounding practice to help you slow down, settle in and arrive fully in the space.
From there, you'll create an origami Christmas card, with plenty of time to enjoy the folding and creative process without needing to rush or get it perfect.
We'll then pause again to reflect on what we'd like to carry with us into the year ahead.
Then, create a special New Year card for yourself, featuring an origami fan folded from beautiful Japanese paper.
You'll be invited to choose a word or short phrase that reflects your intention for the year ahead, which you can write onto the folds of your fan, before writing a more personal message to yourself inside the card.
You'll seal your New Year card and leave it with us, and we'll post it to you in the first week of January — a little message from yourself arriving as the new year begins.
Then you'll break for lunch...
You'll be invited to bring your own lunch along in an Esky or cooler bag. Yeronga Park is just across the road if you'd like to…
