We invite you to a sacred ciorcal art workshop inspired by the monuments of Edinburgh to celebrate 900years. From the famous to the hidden, we will explore the city’s architectural landscape and creatively express its beauty and unique features through mandala painting. The teacher Rachael will open the workshop with a guided meditation, which will include questions to help you explore your relationship with both the well-known and lesser-known parts of the city. We will then research what feels significant to you, from patterns to styles. You’ll have the opportunity to start forming ideas for your mandala. There are many directions you can take in creating your piece—for example, you might draw inspiration from the city’s Gothic architecture as a whole, or focus on specific sculptures at St. Giles’ Cathedral. You may pay particular attention to the symbolically placed flags or the animals scattered throughout the city (e.g., Greyfriars Bobby). The teacher will encourage you to seek inspiration from books in the room, as well as from your own experience, to curate your unique relationship with Edinburgh’s heritage. This could be depicted through spirals, patterns, lines, shapes and textures. The majority of the class will be spent creating mandala-style paintings that are rich in meaning and connected to Edinburgh’s heritage. Materials will be provided, including paints, canvas pads, pens, and pencils. The workshop will close by gathering in a circle, where everyone will be invited to share what they have created and reflect on what resonates with them about the city. This FREE workshop is sponsored by Edinburgh Council- Edinburgh 900 We prioritize our international community in the area of Gorgie-Dalry-Saughton where our studio is based. By attending this class you release the teacher, Giada Gaslini and Art and Spirituality Cic, from any liability arising out of any personal injuries, emotional or physical release, death, expectations of results, theft in the venue or damages that may happen to people and objects while attending.

A light and compassionate guide for parents on the art of creating space in a world where there isn't any and of why it matters. Packed with practical tips for wrangling the chaos and conflicting priorities that come with parenthood, the webinar is aimed at anyone who'd like to regain a little bit of 'me' time in a schedule that revolves around everyone else. Available as a live event and as a recording on request.
No one ever said that being a parent was easy, but when on earth did being a parent get so blooming hard? From conflicting work and school/nursery schedules to the multitude of clubs, activities and socialising opportunities filling up your calendar. It's a lot. And that's before we talk about the basic stuff needed to run a household and get everyone where they need to be AND all the 'quality time' and emotional stuff that all your social media guru's keep reminding you about. If you collapse into bed exhausted every night, no wonder! If your 'stuff' is constantly at the back of the line, well, that's just how it is. Right? And then there are the holidays. The annual headache that never seems to improve. The mental gymnastics and juggling involved should surely be an Olympic sport. But, here we are, and yet again, you've got too many weeks to cover and not enough annual leave to make it work. Simply making it through will be a triumph. When you do eventually get your time 'away' you'll be too drained to really enjoy it before it's back to the merry-go-round to start it all again. But stop. What if there was a way to create space in the chaos? To breathe through the strain and find ease? To change very little but get a HUGE return? If you are thinking 'yes' then this little workshop might be just what you need! We won't be telling you anything you don't already know, we won't be sharing schmaltzy fluff that sounds great but means nothing either. We'll be talking about practical down to earth stuff, in a down to earth and compassionate way. Even better? Our workshop is FREE at the moment so that we can make sure it's useful by getting your help AND we've included a pick and mix assortment of thought provoking exercises to help get you thinking. We hope that you find it all helpful

Reaching New Heights in Project Management Climbing Mount Everest is considered one of mankind's greatest feats of human endurance. The two-month quest to reach the highest point on earth is a project filled with unparalleled challenges and some of the roughest and most extreme conditions imaginable. Alan Mallory embarked on the adventure of a lifetime and set a world record along with four members of his family after an incredible self-guided expedition on the mountain. The expedition challenged the mental, emotional and physical limits of their entire beings and at every stage of the ascent demanded an unwavering commitment to resilience and perseverance. Alan's keynote is a gripping and informative presentation that is supported by many of the stunning photos and short video clips.
