Drawing Workshops

Jean Kropper is the creator of the Meditative Drawing Workshop, a unique 30 day program that combines mindfulness with beginner-level art, breathwork, and grounding exercises.

Her approach makes mindfulness accessible to a wide audience, addressing the crucial need for mental health management skills in our ever-changing world.

Jean's journey began with her personal struggle with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following a relationship with a partner who became an alcoholic.

Her recovery process, spanning several years, involved working with various healing practitioners and conducting extensive personal research. This research included breathwork, mindfulness, neuroscience, neuroplasticity, metacognitive therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, grounding exercises, understanding PTSD and recovery from trauma.

This experience forms the foundation of her workshop, which incorporates insights and practical exercises from both professional expertise and her lived experience. This mental health knowledge is combined with her 25 years of teaching a wide range of creative workshops in USA, Canada and all around Australia.

With a talent for explaining complex concepts in clear, understandable language, Jean has designed a 30-day online workshop that offers participants a creative outlet, an escape from stress and trauma, and techniques to quiet a busy mind.

Her program goes beyond theory, guiding participants through the practical application of mindfulness principles.

Jean's mission is to make these vital skills available to those who have never been taught practical ways to manage their mental health, so they can take back control of their wellbeing.

Through her work, she continues to help individuals find peace and a more joyful balance in their daily lives.
