Did you know that cake decorating is a mindful activity?

All food preparation is a mindful activity and provides a chance to slow down and appreciate the many sensations that food creates.

Mindfulness is a state of being completely focused on the present moment, without dwelling on or reacting to your thoughts.

In a Cookie Girl workshop…

1. You will focus on the task in hand and disconnect from the every day rush.

2. You will feel the benefits of a break from your phone, and all technology.

3. Being creative, frees the mind of stressful thoughts and enhances well-being.

4. You will learn techniques of piping and other icing styles, to express your artistic self.

5. You will experience a post activity lift to your mental wellbeing.

6. You will also experience the additional mood boost of showing and sharing your cakes that you take home to your loved ones.
