Hi, I’m Nora from Soulful Pause Therapy, and I’m excited to introduce myself and share what I do. As an Accredited Integrated Holistic Creative Arts Therapies Practitioner, I’m thrilled to be part of the ColourfulWine Studio team, offering Creative Wellness Workshops that I truly believe can make a difference in people's lives.Art has always been my sanctuary, even as a sensitive child and later as a teenager. My career started in graphic design, which led me to marketing and event management. Over the years, I developed a unique blend of skills that allowed me to create meaningful connections between people, brands, and spaces. As a former Project Management Specialist, I loved supporting teams in launching innovative products and experiences that elevate brands and drive sustainable growth.But today? I’ve embraced a different path—leading creative wellness workshops through Soulful Pause Therapy. My passion is to offer people a moment to pause, reflect and rediscover their inner creativity in a nurturing, safe space. My mission is to empower personal growth, spark inspiration and help you find the balance we all need in life.I am running Creative Wellness Workshops at ColourfulWine Art & Craft Studio. I’m not just facilitating—I’ll also be joining in on the other wonderful classes the studio offers because I believe in walking the walk! So, whether it’s one of my Soulful Pause Therapy Taster Workshops or another artist's class, you’ll see me there, growing right alongside you.What is Creative Arts Therapy?Creative Arts Therapy is not about creating a perfect piece of art; it's about self-expression, exploration and connecting with your emotions.
