Finding Calm Through Breath and Creativity
On 21 December 2025, Pratthanadee Foundation hosted the 3rd Better Me Connect session, bringing together 16 women for a gentle well-being workshop on Mindful Breathing × Journaling & Drawing. The session was facilitated by Prae (Chatporn Nintachat), an artist, journaling enthusiast, and founder of Pair Notebook Art & Craft, who encourages creative expression through a relaxed and enjoyable approach to drawing and journaling.
The session created a safe and supportive space for participants to pause, breathe, and reflect on their personal journeys over the past year. Through guided breathing, journaling, and drawing, women were encouraged to release tension, explore emotions, and reconnect with themselves in a calm and non-judgmental environment — while gently setting intentions for the year ahead.
What Participants Shared
The session received very positive feedback, with:
- 94% reporting new learning and high overall satisfaction
- 94% feeling the space was safe, friendly, and comfortable
- 94% feeling stronger connection and relationships with others
- 81% feeling able to apply the practices in daily life
Participants described feeling calmer, happier, and more self-aware after the session. Several shared that the experience helped them release emotions and better understand themselves.
Moving Forward
This session highlighted the power of combining mindfulness with creative expression. Even simple practices, when held in a supportive community, can help women slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and self-kindness.
The Better Me Connect series continues to offer spaces where women can reconnect with themselves — and with each other — through care, creativity, and connection.
