MINDFULNESS WORKSHOP - NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS - January 8 & 9 - Virtual Live

Special Calligraphy Workshop "The Path" + New Year's Resolutions (8-hour special edition workshop)

January 8 & 9 (10:00 am to 2:00 pm both days)

January is a perfect month to analyze the year that is ending and think about what we would like to achieve and improve in the new year. 

In this workshop we will consciously combine calligraphy with the establishment of goals and purposes for the coming year. 

We will help each other with exercisesbreathingto focus our mind and intention in our practice; ofmeditationto take the positive and free ourselves from past experiences and frustrations and be able tofocusin the present and plan for the future. We will define our purposes and more importantly, we will see them reflected on a final piece with calligraphy, which we will be able to preserve and keep in mind throughout the year. This dynamic will help us verbalize our purposes, put them on paper with our hands in a present way and make us aware of the changes we want to achieve. 

All this by learning our new style "The Path" which is a very free and gestural modern calligraphy style that will help us put a lot of emphasis on our breathing so that everything we write is charged with our consciousness and intention.

At the end of the workshop you will learn in depth the lowercase and uppercase alphabets of "The Path", we will also create some final pieces with your purposes so that you can keep them in mind all year long.

What will you learn in this workshop in summary?

You will learn a new style called "The Path" designed to carry out a conscious practice, and we will help you define your purposes for 2022, which with the style you will learn you will be able to capture in a final piece.
