That peaceful place
Day 13: That peaceful place
Welsh translation: Y man heddychlon hwnnw
Hello my name is Ica Headlam I’m a Creative Practitioner based in Aberdeen Scotland. Up until May 2023 I was also a qualified children and families social worker with 10 years of experience supporting vulnerable young adults, and families across Aberdeen.
So a little more about me. In late 2017 I started to independently produce and host Creative Me Podcast a fortnightly show that explores creativity and arts in the North East of Scotland, with the aim of drawing a wider focus on Aberdeen’s creative community.
I’m also the founder of We Are Here Scotland which is a nonprofit organisation that aims to amplify the voices of Global Majority artists and creatives across Scotland’s creative industries.
I’m also a strong advocate for representation across the arts and value the importance of open and honest dialogue

Helo fy enw i yw Ica Headlam. Dwi’n Ymarferwr Creadigol sy’n byw yn Aberdeen yn yr Alban. Tan fis Mai 2023 roeddwn i hefyd yn weithiwr cymdeithasol cymwysedig gyda theuluoedd a phlant, â 10 mlynedd o brofiad yn cefnogi oedolion ifanc bregus a theuluoedd ledled Aberdeen. Ychydig mwy o wybodaeth amdanaf i. Tua diwedd 2017 dechreuais hunan-gynhyrchu a chyflwyno’r podlediad ‘Creative Me’, sioe bob pythefnos sy’n edrych ar greadigrwydd a’r celfyddydau yng Ngogledd Ddwyrain yr Alban, gyda’r bwriad o ddenu diddordeb ehangach yng nghymuned greadigol Aberdeen.

Do
Think of a place that brings you a sense of peace and calm.
Find a way to capture that place.
Sketch it, describe it in words – or, if you’re able to visit that place today – take a photograph of your favourite thing there.
“I like to go hiking with my family whenever we can. This is the ultimate escapism for me, but also allows for me to clear my mind and become unstuck from the challenges in the week. I’m always taking pictures on my phone if the places that we have been hiking and this brings me some inspiration. Let today’s challenge take you to that peaceful place…!”
Meddyliwch am le sy’n gwneud i chi deimlo’n llonydd a heddychlon. Ffeindiwch ffordd i gofnodi’r lle hwnnw. Gallech chi ei fraslunio, ei ddisgrifio mewn geiriau – neu, os gallwch chi fynd i’r lle hwnnw heddiw – tynnwch lun o’ch hoff beth yno. Dwi’n hoffi mynd i fynydda gyda fy nheulu pan fydd cyfle’n codi. Dyma’r ddihangfa berffaith imi, ond mae hefyd yn cynnig cyfle i glirio’r meddwl a rhyddhad oddi wrth heriau’r wythnos. Dwi wastad yn tynnu lluniau ar fy ffôn o’r llefydd y byddwn yn mynd i fynydda ac mae hyn yn cynnig ysbrydoliaeth. Gadewch i her heddiw fynd â chi i’r man heddychlon hwnnw…!
Think
How do you feel in your peaceful place?
Can you find a way to hold on to that feeling today?
Sut ydych chi’n teimlo yn eich man heddychlon? Allwch chi ddod o hyd i ffordd i ddal gafael ar y teimlad hwnnw heddiw?
