CREATIVE WELLNESS 101
What If Making Art Wasn’t About Being Good—But About Feeling Better?
If you're feeling disconnected from your creativity, unsure where to begin, or convinced that you’re “not an artist,” Creative Wellness 101 is here to gently shift that story.
ENROLL NOWGo from feeling stuck, self-critical, uninspired, or detached…
to feeling curious, confident, creative, and connected—in your art and your life.
This self-paced, on-demand course guides you through a simple but powerful 4-step process that blends intuitive art-making with reflection and personal growth.
Why Creative Wellness 101?
A simple, repeatable 4-step process you can use at your own pace—no experience or talent required.
Gentle mindset shifts, permission to create messily, and a process that focuses on expression over outcome.
A sustainable, emotionally nourishing creative practice that fits into your real life—and actually feels good to do.
Is This Course Right for You?
Let's make sure Creative Wellness 101 is the right fit for you—because when it is, it can be life-changing. But if you’re looking for something different, that’s totally okay too.
This Course Is For You If:
✓ You’re craving a creative outlet but don’t know where (or how) to start — and want something gentle, flexible, and free of pressure.
✓ You’re feeling burned out, stuck, or disconnected — and long for a way back to yourself through creative play.
✓ You’re curious about using creativity as a tool for wellness — to find calm, confidence, and joy again.
✓ You miss the fearless creativity you had as a kid and are ready to create for you, not for perfection or approval.
This Course Might Not Be For You If:
🚫 You’re looking for step-by-step, technical instruction on how to paint, draw, or use specific tools.
🚫 You only want to create “pretty” or polished art for others to admire rather than explore your own creative process.
🚫 You prefer rigid structure and strict timelines over a flexible, intuitive flow.
🚫 You’re not open to self-reflection, playful experimentation, or a little bit of messy exploration.
Note: This isn’t a traditional art class. Creative Wellness 101 is about letting go of expectations and being fully present in the process—because that’s where the magic (and growth) happens.

The most joyful grown-ups I know are the ones who never let go of their child-like sense of wonder. This course will help you come back to yours.
Don't just take it from me...

Meet Jackie
Hi, I’m Jackie Schomburg Meynen, a self-taught abstract artist and certified Open Studio Process Facilitator. I have a busy home life with my husband and 3 young kids, which has highlighted the importance of being present and intentionally showing up for my life and my people. I’ve also realized that being an artist is less about what I create and much more about who I am.
Over the years, I’ve helped hundreds of artists (including artists who don’t think of themselves as artists) in my small group Brave Art & Creative Wellness workshops learn how to nurture their creative voice, rebuild confidence, and rediscover the joy of artistic play.
I believe that creativity is for everyone—and I’m here to help you rediscover yours.
