"Having retired early from a demanding consultant role in a North of England teaching hospital, then cared for my mother during her last months of life, I think I was more stressed and wound up than I realized. When a wise friend suggested a jewellery making workshop in Wales I was intrigued but also a bit daunted. Healthcare work tends to be very protocol and rule driven with little room for creative thought, and as a professional group I feel that many of us are rather tough on ourselves and live in fear of ‘getting it wrong’. I was certain I would get the jewellery ‘wrong’!
The 2 day course opened my thinking up a little to a more self-compassionate direction – the absolute mindfulness and pleasure of the process was the main aim. I’m very proud of the pieces I made but in fact that sense of calm and focus was the best thing I took away.
And where better to do this than Wernog Wood? Such a beautiful rural spot, and a warm, bright and welcoming purpose-built workspace. There is no doubt this setting added to the sense of calm.
In periods of stress or potential burnout the benefits of this type of calm focused creativity are huge, and would have value to so many, to refresh, reward, and revitalize." - Katie
