5 Simple Drawing Rituals to Calm Your Mind

This FREE mini-guide will walk you through easy, meditative drawing techniques to help you relax, refocus, and reconnect — even if you’ve never drawn before.

A vibrant pizza, rich with color and texture, rests like a canvas of nourishment. To the side, five orange steps line the path, echoing a recipe — not for food, but for focus. This is the Creative Calm 5-Step System: a guide to follow with care, where each step layers like ingredients, blending process and practice into one mindful feast for the spirit.

WITH A RECIPE TO FOLLOW,

ANYONE CAN DO THIS!

When you’re new to drawing — or looking to use creativity as a way to relax — it’s easy to overthink it. Most people don’t know where to start, feel unsure about their “skills,” or get stuck trying to make something perfect.

That’s exactly why I created the Creative Calm 5-Step System — a gentle, intentional method designed to help you slow down, clear your mind, and reconnect through drawing.

It’s not something you’ll find on YouTube or in a typical art class. This is about presence, process, and inner stillness — and anyone can do it.

A Glimpse Into Ivan Trujillo’s​

Creative Calm 5-Step System

Step 1

Create Space to Begin

Before any mark is made, we start by creating a quiet moment — not just in your environment, but in your mind. This step sets the tone for the session and helps you shift out of your busy head and into presence.

Step 2

Breathe Into Stillness

Using breath as your anchor, you'll begin to settle into rhythm. It’s here that you let go of expectations, release tension, and open yourself up to the process — no pressure, no judgment.

Step 3

Draw With Intention

Now, we begin. Through simple lines, shapes, and guided patterns, you’ll engage in mindful mark-making that soothes the nervous system and channels your focus into something meaningful and meditative.

Step 4

Observe Without Judgment

This is where insight lives. Instead of analyzing your drawing, you learn to witness it — just as it is. You reflect gently on what came through and begin to recognize the inner shifts, not just the visual ones.

Step 5

Close With Gratitude

You’ll end your session with a soft grounding ritual — affirming what you created, acknowledging what surfaced, and sealing your practice with gratitude. This final step deepens the connection between art and self.

Artist Ivan Trujillo leans over his desk, pen in hand, shaping flowing forms on paper in his Bunny Drawing. Dressed in bright colors, he bends into stillness, turning lines into living rhythm. Books rise behind him like silent witnesses, as patience becomes pattern, and drawing becomes a quiet act of devotion — a reminder that art is both breath and becoming.

But I’m Not an Artist … 

I Can’t Even Draw a Straight Line.

Good news — you don’t need to be an artist to benefit from meditative drawing. In fact, this practice works best when you let go of perfection and just show up with curiosity.

You don’t need fancy supplies or formal training. All you need is a pen, some paper, and a willingness to slow down. With the Creative Calm 5-Step System, you’ll learn how to turn simple lines into a grounding, peaceful practice that anyone can do — no matter your background.

This isn’t about skill. It’s about connection — with yourself, your breath, and the present moment.

In Ivan Trujillo’s Draw to De-Stress, a warm orange box glows with golden patterns that ripple like sunlight across water. Each line whispers release, each form invites calm. This program is a practice in presence, guiding you to find flow, focus, and freedom in the simplest of marks—reminding us that stillness can bloom from movement.

DRAW TO DE-STRESS

Find Calm, Focus & Flow With Every Line

Stressed, scattered, or restless? A few minutes of mindful drawing can change that. Each line leads you closer to stillness, focus, and the deep sense of calm you’ve been craving — and it all begins with a single stroke.
