Nature-Based Contemplative Art Courses & Professional Women’s Circles
At The Forest Studio, women gather in live, online spaces to explore their inner lives through creativity, contemplation, and connection to the natural world.
​
These offerings are not about fixing or improving yourself. They are invitations to listen more closely — to your grief, your longings, your questions, and your creative voice — within thoughtful, well-held circles.
Live Creative & Contemplative Courses
At The Forest Studio, our live creative and contemplative courses are invitations — gentle, spacious invitations to slow down, listen inward, and explore your inner landscape through creative practice and nature-inspired reflection.
​
These offerings are not about achieving a specific outcome or mastering a skill. Instead, they are conversations — with your curiosity, your experiences, and the wisdom that emerges when you show up in community with other women. Rooted in quiet observation, imaginative work, and the rhythms of the natural world, our courses create a reflective space where presence is the teacher and creativity is the language of learning.
These courses are for women who long to:
​
-
Come home to themselves — sensing with calm and clarity even in seasons of change
-
Deepen their creative expression through relationship with the land and their own inner experience
-
Explore self-understanding through process art and contemplative inquiry
-
Gather with other women in slow, reflective online community

Professional Women’s Circles
These circles are for professional women in the middle seasons of their careers, women who have spent years building, contributing, and carrying responsibility, and are now sensing a quiet desire for something different.
​
Many arrive thoughtful, sensing new possibility without yet knowing its shape. Their work may still look “fine” on the outside, yet no longer feels quite right on the inside. There is often a longing for more meaning, more spaciousness, or a slower, more sustainable way of working, without yet knowing what that might look like.
​
The Forest Studio’s professional women’s circles offer live, facilitated spaces for reflection and shared inquiry, where women come together as thinking partners. Through gentle conversation, contemplative prompts, and creative reflection, we explore questions of meaningful work, transition, identity, and the later stages of professional life - without pressure to make immediate decisions or dramatic change.
​
These circles are not about career strategy or reinvention. They are about creating the conditions where clarity can emerge naturally. Over time, women begin to name what no longer fits, listen for what feels true, and imagine next chapters with more ease and integrity.
​
This is a place to slow down, think together, and honour the wisdom that comes from long experience, allowing the next shape of work to take form in its own time.
