We all know creativity is fun, and that it can be a great ‘perk’, but it’s far more powerful than that. Creativity is in us all. As children we are playful, curious, unafraid of failure, and we 'colour outside the lines'. But for most people, it gets lost as we get older...perhaps we're told that we're not very good at art, or we compare ourselves to others. Eventually, we follow corporate guidelines, life 'rounds the edges' and as we get older we inevitably don't make time to be creative.
But organisations need creativity in order to survive. By working with your team you can nurture creativity to unleash their full potential.
Encouraging divergent thinking, creating a safe space for mistakes to happen can help to foster creativity in your team.
At The Creative Wellbeing company (formally The Mindful Craft Company), we know the amazing benefits that creativity can have on our mental health.
Founded by Fiona Lock in 2021, The Mindful Craft Company was created to help teams connect and experience the benefits of craft.
With a background in publishing, Fiona used to design craft kits for one of the UK's leading craft magazines. After becoming a first-time mum to the beautiful Dorothy, losing her ‘dream’ job, and being faced with a global pandemic, it was crafting that helped Fiona find a moment of calm and deal with negative thoughts. Realising the powerful effect that creativity had on her in such a short space of time, Fiona realised that craft could help so many people, and so The Mindful Craft Company was born.
At The Mindful Craft Company, we bring teams together to craft and create messages of positivity, gratitude, values and connection. Our sessions not only allow a time of mindfulness but connect teams to each other, to their values and to the culture within your business. All our crafts get your team thinking about a different message and bringing it to life through craft, such as….
After the craft-along has finished, all of the beautiful crafts can be brought together and made into a craft wall in your office... AMAZING! Your craft wall creates a visual display that your team has created together. Would a wall of gratitude inspire, motivate and make your team feel more connected and valued?
