“You don't have to be good at art, for the arts to be good for you.”
– Dr. Christina Davies
This course offers a gentle and creative introduction to how photography can support emotional balance, an active lifestyle, and everyday holistic well-being. In a calm mix of indoor and outdoor moments, we’ll use photography as a simple, playful way to reset, reconnect, and return to inner yourself.

The course is grounded in current research from arts and health, neuroscience, and emotional well-being, translated by your guide, Luiza, into a simple creative well-being toolkit anyone can use. You will receive guidance from a professional adult education teacher trained in fine art photography with 13+ years of experience with a specialization in well-being photography.
During our weekend together, you will:
• Slow your nervous system through artistic photography
• Learn about your emotions with curiosity instead of judgment
• Wander through nature with your camera in calm, guided photo walks on a special well-being hike trail in Espoo, Finland
• Rediscover creative play — without needing to be “good”
• Return home feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected
