Whether you're new to art journaling or looking for fresh inspiration, this course will guide you in turning blank pages into a meaningful reflection of your inner world.

Journaling and Emotions 

-self paced program-

Ever feel like your emotions are running the show? Do you sometimes get stuck in certain feelings and wish you had a way to move through them with more ease?

What if you could tap into your creativity, feel more alive, and express yourself freely—without overthinking or needing any artistic experience?

Are you willing and open to trying new creative ideas and keen to explore and get started?

This is your space to do just that. In this course, you’ll learn everything you need to start a fulfilling creative practice. You’ll even have the option to hand-bind your own unique journal (or use a store-bought one—whatever feels right for you).

From there, we’ll explore:

  • Creating beautiful backgrounds with ease
  • Collage techniques to layer meaning into your pages
  • Playing with lots of different art mediums—and there's no experience required!

This course is designed for everyone, whether you’re brand new to art journaling or looking to expand your creative toolkit.

Everything is broken down step by step, so you’ll never feel lost or overwhelmed.

Ready to start (or deepen) your creative journey? This is your invitation to dive in!

 

What's inside?


I’ll walk you through everything you need to confidently fill your journal pages with meaning and magic:

  • Step-by-step techniques 
    Learn mixed media, collage, layering, and intuitive art methods.

  • Creative writing & reflection prompts
    Combine words and visuals for a deeper connection.

  • Guided exercises
    No more staring at a blank page, wondering where to start!

  • A supportive, judgment-free space
    This is about expression, not perfection.

What Makes This Course Special?

This isn’t just another art course. It is so much more.

Think of it as a creative journey, one that gives you a chance to make your very own hand-bound art journal, and that alone is a huge accomplishment! From there, you’ll explore different art and journaling techniques to help you connect deeply with your creativity.

In just 15-30 minutes a day, you’ll discover new ways to express yourself, spark inspiration, and find a sense of purpose . And because the course is self-paced, you can dive in whenever it feels right for you.

Now, you might be wondering… Is this for me? Will I really be able to express myself through art journaling?

Well, that depends; are you willing to show up for your Creative Self?

If something inside you is saying yes, even if it’s just a whisper, why not give it a try? Maybe even grab a journal and make a list:
- All the reasons this lights you up.
- Any doubts holding you back.

Then decide. But if you’re feeling even a little curious… this might just be the perfect place to start. 

You'll get all this and more!

Hiya, |'m Vivian

Most people would describe me as a Transpersonal Art Therapist, Intuitive Coach, Creative Soul, mum, and CEO of my small business. But in reality, I am so much more than that.

And so are you.

Society may see us as the roles we take on, but that doesn't mean we have to stay there. It is time for me to be ME and for you to be YOU and bring all our beautiful gifts forward.

It is time to connect within.

What People are Saying:

"Thank you SO much for the workshop Vivian and for holding us in such a creative and warm way. 

I felt so nourished and filled up by the experience and inspired to keep working in my journal."

 
Jo

"Having worked with Vivian several times I can comfortably say she is pure inspiration! Not only is she a fabulous artist and therapist, her ability to assist me to grasp and apply practical and every day tools has helped me with my own creative expression, knowing who I really am, and how I can assist others. This has been invaluable!"

 
Michelle

"I feel I can move forward with the journal, using some special pictures and words people have made for me in the past. It was very helpful to see a different way to do the writing. I felt it became integrated as part of the art. Thank you, and very big hugs, for helping me get that creative flow going again!"
