Smc23.ART Healing through Art from the power of Nature

Why is my gratitude diary so important to me?

1. It's a place I feel safe to express myself and experiment with any medium.

2. I'm making a bit of history for the children. I have diaries from 1996. Some of them have very little in them, others are choc full like this one.

3. If I didn't write down what I'm grateful for everyday my mental health would be in the toilet. It's a habit that I formed to keep me sane.

4. It reduces my anxiety and stress. Instead of having negative thoughts rolling around my head, I shift my thoughts into the positive "What has been the best part of my day?"

5. It improves my sleep by calming my thoughts before bed. Switching from digital to analogue is such a good habit, especially before bed.

Seeing a little one get so much happiness and excitement is such a heartfelt experience. This video just melted my heart and brought a tear to my eye.

Thank you, Emily. That was just beautiful. Millie is absolutely gorgeous

This is exactly why I created the turtle mail. To give children this happiness. They are such a blessing 💚🐢

Hi lovely people…😍
I’ve created something really special for the little ones in our lives.

Each month, a piece of happy mail arrives — 💌
a postcard from my original artwork,
a colouring page they can make their own,
a sticker, and a gentle letter from Nama’s turtle friend on his ocean adventure.🐢🌊

It’s slow, creative, screen-free magic…
a moment just for imagination and connection. 🤗✨️

Because sometimes the smallest things —
a letter, a story, a picture —
can become the biggest childhood memories.

Screen free magic... arriving by post 📫 ✨️

This felt vulnerable to share… but also really grounding.Sometimes we get so busy doing that we forget to pause and ask ...

This felt vulnerable to share… but also really grounding.

Sometimes we get so busy doing that we forget to pause and ask —

Who am I becoming?

Art has helped me rediscover myself.
It’s helped me heal.
It’s helped me dream again.

Sometimes,
I post to remember.

Who I am.
What I stand for.
Why I started.

This season of my life feels different.
Stronger. Softer. Clearer.

If you’re in a season of becoming too…
I see you 💛

Tell me — what feels different about you lately
I’d love to know…

Turtle 🐢 mail 💌

Two of my granddaughters have received their mail. They were so happy 😊 and so was I. To see their little faces light up filled my heart with happiness 💚

If you would like to bring a little bit of joy to your mailbox for your child, grandchild, niece or nephew, please get in touch. Let's get them off their screens one turtle at a time

I’m finally ready to share something I’ve been quietly creating 💚

Nama’s Turtle Mail 🐢💌

A gentle snail-mail club for children.
Real letters. Real stories. Something they can hold.

Each envelope includes:
• a postcard of my original artwork
• a colouring page
• a sticker
• and a letter from me, Nama

All following the adventures of a travelling turtle.

In a fast world of screens and notifications, I wanted children to experience the magic of waiting for the letterbox again… and to feel remembered when it arrives.

I’m opening the very first mail-out now.

If a child in your life would love their own letter, comment 🐢 or send me a message and I’ll share the details.

Morgan, SA
