grow and heal

and have fun


Self-healing can require a lot of us! If you've explored personal growth and been in therapy, you know that while healing is sacred ~ it can also be intense. You may have had experiences where you dug deep and ended up feeling exhausted and depleted. There's no getting around the fact that healing can take us to uncomfortable places. But sometimes we need to lighten up; we want to heal but we need it to be more easeful.

If you've been feeling this way, Love Yourself Now with Art Journaling will give you fun and practical tools for your self-compassion toolbox. This workshop is about learning to connect with the young, playful part of you, while also staying grounded in your adult self. You'll be guided in how to show up heart-first, with more joy, so you can continue on your healing journey with less heaviness and exhaustion.

in this free training, you will:
 

🎨 ​​ add art journaling to your self-compassion toolkit so healing feels easier

🧑‍🎨 re-imagine the inner critic's stories creatively so those harsh words no longer have power over you

🌻 walk away with an effective, gentle (and fun!) way to love yourself whenever life feels difficult ~ instead of losing yourself to unhelpful habits

If you want to keep practicing together after this free training, you'll also learn about my uplifting Everyday Self-Compassion program.

This live workshop will be recorded, so if you aren't able to join at 11am PT on Saturday, October 7, 2023, you can watch the replay!

hello

I'm glad you're here

I'm Lea Seigen Shinraku. I'm a licensed therapist, teacher and 20+ year Zen practitioner, and I've led self-compassion classes for over 10 years. I know first-hand that personal growth is transformational and deeply worthwhile. I also know that it can be heavy and exhausting. If you're feeling depleted, art journaling offers a gentle and meaningful way to re-engage with your innate creativity. This accessible practice is a powerful, playful way to continue on your healing journey while also finding a sense of lightness and fun. Creative self-compassion has transformed my life and the lives of hundreds of my students. I'm here to help you experience more playfulness in your healing, too. Nothing means more to me than helping people accept themselves and find a sense of creative joy in everyday life. If you feel burned out and you're longing for more ease in your personal growth journey, I hope you'll join me for this fun, free training. ❤️

students say...

The workshop was, “This was a hands-on way to learn how to be kinder to yourself. Lea instructed us to draw ourselves on the page, demonstrating a simple way to do it. I gave myself shoes with long loopy laces and a scrawl of curly hair. Suddenly, with me literally on the page, I was able to open up to the ideas ~ mind, body, and spirit, right down to those loopy laces. It was wonderful to feel an instant infusion of affection, understanding, and compassion for myself.” ~ K.B.

It was such a gift to have this dedicated time to learn, draw, listen, and reflect. Even setting out fresh art supplies felt like a big step forward for me! Lea encouraged us to have a playful attitude of exploration and experimentation. This was important as I do not draw regularly and can be quick to judge myself. I especially appreciated Lea's heart-centered approach to trying something new. I can't help but smile to myself when looking back at my drawing from the workshop.” ~ K.R.

This was amazing and life-changing for me. Having the structure around the practices was invaluable and I am so excited to continue to integrate them into my everyday life.” ~ S.B.

“Thank you for providing this program and the space to cultivate a skill I will forever carry with me. I feel like my emotional intelligence IQ went up tremendously.” ~ M.S.
