Shades of The Meh creates a playful safe space to become aware of colour in our daily lives and its tremendous impact on us as human beings. Unlearning stereotypes in language and imagery, we reclaim our roots, process our experiences, understand our needs, empower each of our unique identities, by simple practices of scribbling, colouring, breathing and just being.
In working on Doodles For The Meh & Writing Affirmations for the Meh, we saw the need to de-colonise colours and everything associated with it.
Shades of The Meh is a new offering. It comes out of the need to de-colonise colours and work through its impacts on our mental and emotional wellbeing.
Anyone who would like to learn a self-expression tool and is interested in the intersection of de-colonisation & mental wellbeing.
We do not offer therapy, however we have a list of recommended and verified therapists.

This is a space to learn tools for self-expression, there is a little bit of sharing at the end but it is not talking space.
Each session is 1hr 15 minutes. We begin with check-ins & introductions. Adwaita introduces us to the first colour & guides us with prompts to the underlying emotion. We stop to breathe & stretch. Adwaita takes us through the next colour. We stop to breathe and stretch/move our body. We end with affirmations and sharing.
No pictures and recording. Calling people by their names mentioned and being mindful of their pronouns. Trigger warning before sharing
