About the Workshop

 

It’s easy to feel disconnected from the world around us when we spend time online. Sometimes I feel like my center of gravity exists more in digital space than on the land I inhabit. Instead of shaming ourselves about the time and energy we spend on social media, we can use creativity to get curious about the impact technology has on our wellbeing. 

In this free workshop, you will be guided through creative exercises to help you:

  • Reorient to your surroundings + emotions
  • Map your digital footprint with curiosity + compassion
  • Address tension between the online + offline realms of your life
  • When you pre-order + register for the live event you’ll receive an advance excerpt from the workbook!
  • This event is more about how the creative process feels than creating a polished final product. No art skills or experience necessary!
  • Sharing is optional. Cameras can be on or off.
  • Don't worry if you can't attend live! Everyone who registers will receive a recording of the workshop.

Do you wish you could spend less time on social media, or maybe even quit it altogether?

You’re not alone.

“Social media is woven into so many aspects of our daily lives,” says Amelia Knott, “but it is not designed with our psychological well-being in mind.” Thankfully, it is possible to create a conscious relationship with the online world, one that allows you to enjoy the many benefits of that connection, while also feeling a sense of awareness and choice.


The Art of Thriving Online goes far beyond “digital detoxing,” with innovative methods for counteracting manipulative, compulsive, and stress-inducing aspects of social media while preserving the goodness of your time online. The foundation of Knott’s method is creativity—she provides a playful, interactive place to explore the impact social media has on you as you shift to a more positive, health-promoting approach.

Through creative activities, reflections, therapeutic art, writing prompts, and more, you’ll learn how to safely process emotions through the forms of personal expression suited to your unique style. Looking through the many lenses of the internet’s impact—such as attention, productivity, privacy, worthiness, fear, disinformation, and belonging—this is a space for you to find your own answers and author your own definition of wellness.

“Our digital lives are meaningful,” says Knott, “and we can show up online while also caring for our mental health.” Here is a “gentle manifesto” for establishing new habits and boundaries that make you feel truly well—online and off.
