Bringing reflective practice and art journaling together.
Open to anyone who would like to explore creative reflection
Treat yourself to a year of creativity just for you in 2026 starting on 17th February
Anna Sheather
Expressing yourself through creating visual images, whether as a painting, drawing, sculpture, or a mixture of approaches gives you a way to be more in touch with yourself, your emotions and your inner wisdom’

An invitation…
If you have always felt your reflective practice needed to be more visual, creative and much more in tune with you but didn’t know where to start or perhaps felt it wasn’t really a proper reflective practice, I would like to invite you to join me for a year of creative reflection – bringing together art journaling and formal reflective processes.
Open to all
My invitation is also to anyone who would like to explore and develop a creative reflective practice, anyone who wants to find out more about art journaling and creative reflective practice and anyone who wants to join an online creative, reflective and supportive community. You don’t have to be a coach or supervisor to join.
During the year
Through this year you will build confidence in your own unique creative voice, learn how to use art journaling for deeper reflection and have an approach to your reflective practice that is entirely your own. You will also discover the natural mindfulness of art journaling and how it enhances our wellbeing.
- Receive my e-guides – Preparing for your Year of Creative Reflection – A practical guide and Creative Reflection – A guide to creative reflective practice and art journaling
- Begin our time together with the longer introduction and first reflective session
- Come together for a further 9 online creative reflective sessions, 10 in total
- Receive 9 additional email prompts and starting points between sessions including a bumper pack for the August break
- Have access to the recordings of each session so you don’t miss anything and can revisit in your own time.

“I’ve enjoyed the regularity of the process – a reminder every two weeks to stop and take some time to reflect. I’ve enjoyed the art prompts – they’ve been stimulating and have given me a starting point. I’ve enjoyed the camaraderie with like-minded souls across the globe. I’ve enjoyed making art with a purpose, and having the opportunity to talk about it with someone who is interested. I’ve enjoyed seeing others’ art and listening to their thoughts too. I’ve enjoyed the way that you lead the process by offering some of your own experiences – makes it feel very real and collegial.”

My practice
My approach to creative reflection has been developed from my own experience as well as the creative reflective practice developed and integrated into the ADCT Diploma in Art-Based Coaching.
I have been using art as part of my reflective practice for many years whether it is simple biro drawings in my diary or more worked pieces in a sketchbook. I have never been able to just sit and write out my reflective practice. Since starting to express myself through image making and art, it has enabled me to settle those thoughts and complex feelings that can come up in work and life, as well as connect to them, understand them and respond to them.
I have found it to be a place for renewal and peace as well as a place where I more fully understand myself, connect to what is important to me and to know where I need to do my own work. It has also enhanced my creativity and built my confidence in myself as a creative professional person.
The images above are from my journals.

Anna Sheather
Creative reflective journaling connects you to a deeper and more knowing part of yourself, gaining new insights and perspectives. It enables you to make sense of and connect to those things that are important for you to recognise and take notice of. Bringing to awareness things you may not be seeing, not giving yourself permission to say or are hidden from you.
