Are you looking to calm your busy mind and be more present in daily life?

Join floral doodler, Chloe Wilson of Magic of Florals, as you learn to overcome the overwhelm of a blank piece of paper and turn it into a beautiful, soothing, floral-cascade doodle.

You don’t need to be “creative” or “artistic” to take this class, it’s suitable for absolute beginners and anyone interested in discovering the pleasure and inner-calm provided from doodling!

What you’ll get out of this class:

• Understand the deeper purpose of doodling. Gain insight into how doodling can help you to be present, unplug from screens and notice the beauty of the world around you;

All you’ll need is:
