If you have been meaning to make a little more time for yourself, this could be a lovely way to spend an autumn Saturday.
Relax & Create comes to Long Buckby Community Centre on Saturday 10th October 2026, bringing together yoga, relaxation and creativity for a full day designed to help you slow down and try something a little different.
The event is a collaboration between Yoga with Lizzy and nJoyArt, combining gentle wellbeing activities with a guided art session.
No artistic or yoga experience is needed, so you can simply turn up, enjoy the day and see where it takes you.
Event Details
Date: Saturday 10th October 2026
Time: 10.15am to 4pm
Venue: Long Buckby Community Centre
Address: 41 Station Road, Long Buckby, NN6 7QB
Tickets: £75
The event runs for most of the day, giving you time to properly switch off rather than trying to squeeze everything into a short workshop.
What can you expect?
Relax & Create is about bringing together two things that can be very good for helping us slow down: movement and creativity.
Previous Relax & Create days have included gentle yoga, a sound bath, time outdoors, nourishing food, homemade cake and a guided painting session.
The October event is once again being run by Yoga with Lizzy and nJoyArt, so visitors can expect a mix of relaxation and creativity throughout the day.
The emphasis is very much on enjoyment rather than performance.
You do not need to be able to touch your toes, paint a masterpiece or have any previous experience.
The idea is simply to take some time out and enjoy trying something new.
Time to slow down
Days like this can be a welcome change from the usual weekend routine.
Rather than rushing from one thing to another, you have several hours set aside to move, create and enjoy a different pace.
The yoga element offers an opportunity to unwind physically, while the creative session gives you the chance to focus on something completely different.
For anyone who spends much of the week looking at screens, answering emails or thinking about the next thing on the list, that change of pace may be reason enough to go.
Get creative with nJoyArt
The art side of the day is led by nJoyArt, which runs relaxed painting and creative events across the local area.
The session is designed to be accessible even if you have not picked up a paintbrush for years.
You will be guided through the process and have the chance to create something of your own to take home at the end of the day.
There is no need to arrive believing you are an artist.
That is rather the point.
