Brushstrokes of Calm: Chinese Calligraphy for Emotional Healing & Special Needs Support
A 4-lesson journey into mindful writing, emotional balance, and cultural art
Have you ever met a child who experiences emotional ups and downs, struggles to focus, or holds in unspoken feelings?
I’m a pastor, counselor, and teacher who has spent years using Chinese calligraphy to walk alongside children — helping them build confidence, improve focus, and find calm through the gentle rhythm of brush and ink.
This online course is designed for:
✔️ Individuals with Special Educational Needs (SEN)
✔️ Parents, teachers, and support workers
✔️ Anyone curious about Chinese calligraphy as a mindful, healing, and beautiful art form
🌸You Don’t Need to Know Chinese!
This course welcomes all learners — whether you work with SEN children or are simply exploring a new creative medium.
Even if you don’t read Chinese, calligraphy is like painting: the flow of brush, ink, and paper becomes a calming, expressive experience.
