Meditative Painting – A New Space to Breathe and Create

In our busy everyday lives, it’s not easy to truly slow down. Thoughts keep racing, to-do lists grow longer, and even free time can feel packed. I know this feeling all too well. As a mother, teacher, and therapeutic art coach, I’ve often found myself caught between responsibilities, constantly “on,” with little room to breathe.

It was during one of those overwhelming phases that I discovered how powerful painting can be when approached in a mindful way. Sitting quietly with a brush in hand, focusing on the movement of color and the rhythm of my breath, I noticed something shift. My shoulders softened, my mind grew calmer, and I felt grounded again. Painting became less about creating something “beautiful” and more about creating space inside myself.

That’s why I’m starting something new at Hands-On Art: a monthly evening dedicated to meditative painting.

Beginning this month, I invite you to the beautiful Langhuus in Cham—a cozy space where creativity and calmness meet. This format is all about releasing stress, finding balance, and simply abschalten.

What is Meditative Painting?

Meditative painting is not about the result—it’s about the process. You don’t need any prior experience—only the willingness to let your brush guide you. With soft music, mindful breathing, and intuitive strokes, the focus shifts from “How does it look?” to “How does it feel?”.

Colors become a tool to express your inner state. Lines and shapes flow naturally, helping you to let go of pressure and reconnect with yourself. It’s a journey inward, where painting becomes meditation in motion.

Why Try It?

• Reduce stress and calm your nervous system

• Give your mind a break from screens and constant thinking

• Reconnect with your inner creativity

• Enjoy a playful, mindful evening with like-minded people
