I don’t know about you, but if I spend too long in London, my head starts to hurt and my brain runs dry. I start craving some outdoor time - sailing - hiking - kayaking - climbing - so with the help of my better half (in life), we started a series of creative wellness weekends. Designed as mini-adventures for those in creative industries, to help us take a break from work and re-wild how we think.

Proudly supporting NABS. Check out out social below:

*****Next weekend: Wales, early 2k27

@wildercreativeweekends

Adventure is only one half of #wilder weekends and the other is a whole host of creative mindfulness exercises that give our brains a rest from briefs and help us think differently. Some things we got up to in Coniston: breathwork, reflective writing, a tea tasting workshop and haiku masterclass and yoga out in the wilderness ✨
Busy #wilder days call for serious fueling up and joining us in Coniston, our legendary chef @kymossman1 did not disappoint! The king of nutritionally balanced, healthy delicious dishes with an even more amazing taste in music that kept the vibes up day and night 😂 thanks Ky!
Stepping outside our comfort zones was as much a part of #wilder Coniston than chilled creative workshops, so squeezing in some kayaking and abseiling was a must. Going over the edge is NOT easy so huge respect for the team who absolutely smashed it 🤛 ✨

Creative ‘recovery’ can look different for all of us. Maybe it’s cooking. Writing. Bingeing comedy. Gardening. For me personally, getting some exercise in actual fresh air, somewhere with a nice view works wonders. So for our next weekend we’re trialling some wilder ‘workshops’ to get the brain going but in an entirely zero pressure way. Things like: Journaling. Photography. Reflective prompts. Quick sketching. Tea tasting (really). All less than 10 minutes, entirely optional and just a bit of fun to remind us what being present looks like. And, whether you’re a ‘creative’ or in production, design, writing, film - whatever. Broad enough for all of us, with a bit of an open mind. #creativementalhealth #creativewellnessweekend #creativewellnesscommunity #advertisingmentalhealth #wilder
Where it all started: our first exped in the Brecon Beacons for members of the production/tv/film world. Absolutely lucked out with the weather, the perfect backdrop for kayaking, abseiling, climbing, hiking. Some really productive mental health chats, as well as some first aid thrown in too. &&&&& epic scran courtesy of the @theaussiesmokercatering which deserves a shout out all of its own 🤟 #wilderweekends #creativementalhealth #advertisingmentalhealth #creativewellnesscommunity #adventureweekends
