About us
Mindful Art Lisbon offers in-person experiences that combine creativity, mindfulness, and emotional awareness in a calm, structured setting.
These workshops are designed for adults seeking a deeper pause from daily life — using art as a reflective and regulating practice rather than a technical skill.
Each session is carefully facilitated and intentionally small, allowing for presence, containment, and meaningful engagement. Materials are provided, and no previous art experience is required.
This is not entertainment, therapy, or a traditional art class.
It is a grounded wellbeing experience for those who value depth, attention, and inner clarity.
Ideal for locals and visitors looking for a meaningful creative practice in Lisbon.
Mindfully led by Clinical Psychologist trained in Art Therapy Aida, founder of Fluid Art & Wellness: fluidartwellness.com
For those who are feeling ready for a more contained and time-bound experience, I open online cohorts a few times a year called The Mindful Creative Circle:

Between Two Places: Mindful Art Workshop for People Who Left Home (Via Zoom)
·OnlineOnlineYou left a place. But the place didn’t fully leave you.
This session is for anyone who has moved countries, cultures, or identities, and is still making sense of what that means. Through a guided mindful art process, we explore the invisible weight of relocation:
what we kept, what we lost, and what we continue to carry.
This is not a technical class, No art experience needed.What we’ll do
- A short grounding to arrive and settle
- A guided mindful art process using images, words, and symbols
- Quiet reflection + optional sharing (no pressure to speak)
This approach is grounded in art therapy practices where symbolic imagery helps process complex transitions and identity shifts
What you might take from it
- A clearer sense of what you’re holding internally
- A different relationship to your experience of “in-between”
- A moment of pause in a life that often requires constant adaptation
This is not therapy, but it is a structured, reflective space.
Materials
- Paper/Paint/colors/ Markers or pens
- Optional: Magazines / printed images (or anything you can cut)
- Scissors + glue
Who this is for
- Expats, Immigrants
- Anyone navigating identity, belonging, or “in-between” spaces

Unfold: A Mindful Fan Art Workshop
Fluid Art studio, Rua da Fe, Lisboa, Lisbon, PTJuly in Lisbon is a particular kind of full: heat, light, and a city that never quite slows down. This workshop is a deliberate pause inside that fullness.
No artistic experience is needed. You'll receive a white hand fan, and through a sequence of mindful prompts and simple color mark-making, you'll paint what this season feels like from the inside. What needs to cool. What wants to open.
We begin with a short grounding practice to settle the nervous system and arrive in the body. Then we work. Slowly, quietly, with music and with the particular quality of attention that comes when the hands are doing something simple and the mind is invited to let go.
You'll leave with a hand-painted fan you made yourself, something functional, personal, and genuinely yours.
Facilitated by Aida, a clinical psychologist trained in art therapy. All materials provided.
—
What to bring: yourself, comfortable clothes, and an open mind.
What's included: fan, paint, brushes, all art materials & guided facilitation.
Duration: 2 hours.
Level: everyone is welcome.
