How to boost Self Love with Art

The joy of working in silence at the Gloriously Imperfect Art Days, overcoming perfectionism and imposter syndrome

In 2016 I guided groups of amazing women through weekly  Gloriously Imperfect Art Days. and it was So Good!

Creating art is an amazingly effective way to boost self-love, deal with imposter syndrome and perfectionism. 

Picture this:
A large old farm, Very high ceiling. Wood. One Long table. 10 women working for hours. Concentrated. Relaxed. Light mood. Brushes on paper. More paint. Mixing colors.

Complete silence.

"Do you want to hear some beautiful music?", I'd asked hours before.

No. They loved the silence.

They were trying out new art material. Leaning back. Fresh cup of tea in both hands. Observing their art. With Soft Eyes.

This was the afternoon session of the Art Day.  And it came with a clear desire: "I wish I could do this every week"

Someone called it: The Best Holiday Ever for Highly Sensitive Women.

I know our lives are way too busy to grant ourselves the gift of hours of silence, color and form on a daily base. Though isn't it something to put on our short list: 'Things I want to accomplish within 1 year'?

But promise me this  - I will even say please  :-) even when it's 5 minutes each week. Grant yourself the gift of color, form and silence to brighten your mood and color your day.

THIS HOW YOU DO IT

Find a spot somewhere in your house or office. A corner of the table will do just fine. Make sure there is not too much junk on it (because you'll want to start cleaning it instead of enjoying your bright 5 minutes)

Buy some beautiful pencils, some good quality paper.

Tell everybody to NOT touch it.

"NO you cannot borrow them. Those are mine. My shiny pencils. My fancy paper."

READY?


Close the door...

Breathe in...

Breathe out...

Close your eyes...

Visualize color...

Visualize Form...

Don't push it...

It will come...

Let form and color flow through your hands...

Let it happen...

Whatever wants to come out through you is okay...

Soft eyes...

Breathe in...

Breathe out...

Smile

What do you think: should we start with the Gloriously Imperfect Art Days again?

Are you ready?

 Is the Archetypal Real You the answer you were looking for, but didn't know it was here for you? 

It's here for you

Selen Yildiztac A truly feminine approach which is very unusual in the marketing world. To work with the energies, with our own strengths and our own life purpose was great.

After only 1 Month I found my zone of genius, turned it in a program and sold my first 12-month group coaching program. 💖

Susanne Höhne I did the test and found out that I am a great mix between local hero and visionary dreamer. I implemented the tips for this business type and it worked great. So I did my first outsourcing projects to concentrate more on marketing than creating new stuff (which I love to do all the time) and Voilà: immediately I reached more sells than ever before. Yeah! 💃

Maria Jurimea In 1 year I have moved more than in the 15 years before. I was very modest with my pricing, but Esther told me to double or triple my prices.

I thought: "That is crazy. No one will buy at those prices."  But my international sales keep coming.  This has given me so much self confidence.

Janka Urbanova  I wanted to stop trying to find it out on my own, that's why I joined you.  And that is when I found myself in the company of so many brave and wonderful women and the support of Esther and her team.
As a result I got new clients, I sold my program and I'm feeling deeply confident.

Marjolein Doesburg-van Kleffens Esther made me see that I don’t need to be a very extroverted salesy person to become a successful entrepreneur. There’s no one else who does this the way Esther and her amazing team do this. 🥳
