When life gets busy, creativity doesn’t disappear — it just goes quiet.
'Find Your Fire' is a small-group, all-inclusive weekend retreat designed to help you soften the noise, steady your nervous system, and reignite the creative embers that never went out.
Grounded in Chinese Five-Element Theory and held in the Year of the Fire Horse, this retreat leans into the qualities of Fire — joy, expression, connection and creative courage — while also gently restoring balance across all five elements.
Who this is for?
Who this is for?
This weekend is especially for you if:
You’ve been craving a proper creative reset (without having to “perform”)
You want to feel calmer, clearer and more energised
You love the idea of nature-led making, but you’re not sure where to start
You’ve ever been told you “can’t draw” or you’re “not arty”
If you have memories of art classes feeling constrained rather than inspiring, we know how you feel. Both Ruth and Paula were told they weren't arty when they were younger — but they were wrong. Creativity isn’t a gift for a chosen few. It’s something you return to when you’re given the right space, support and permission.
Frustrated with the stuffiness of mainstream art, we want to give people the opportunity to colour outside the lines and have fun with their creative potential. We want to inspire people to celebrate and explore unconstrained creativity and self-expression without judgement or expectation.
What you’ll experience
What you’ll experience
Over the weekend you’ll be guided through a nourishing blend of creative and wellbeing practices, including:
The 5-Element Cycle: A structured yet fluid day moving through Water (flow), Wood (growth), Fire (expression), Earth (grounding), and Metal (clarity).
Tactile Exploration: Mindful Chinese brush painting, energetic mark-making, and transformative clay work.
Holistic Integration: Opening and closing ceremonies featuring qigong movements, conscious breathing, and visualization.
Nourishment: High-quality, fresh catering designed to support your energy throughout the day.
A Judgment-Free Space: A neurodivergent-friendly and accessible studio environment where the goal is "messy honesty" rather than gallery masterpieces.
You won’t be rushed. You won’t be judged. And you don’t need any experience — just curiosity.
