A Quiet Place for INFJs to Heal, Create, and Feel Understood

If you’ve spent most of your life feeling out of place… if you’ve craved peace, depth, and meaning in a chaotic world… this page was made for you.

As an INFJ—the rarest of the 16 personalities—you likely experience the world with deep intuition, emotion, and inner complexity. And yet, you’ve probably felt misunderstood, unseen, or drained by environments that don’t match your frequency. At The Clay Hole in Draper, Utah, we’ve quietly built a pottery studio that feels like a soft landing place for souls like yours.

Why Pottery Heals INFJs in Particular

For INFJs, healing isn’t loud. It isn’t fast. And it doesn’t happen in forced group dynamics or surface-level activities. It comes through:

  • ✨ Meaningful solitude: Centering clay on the wheel creates a grounding silence you can feel in your bones.
  • 🖐️ Tactile mindfulness: The physicality of clay keeps you present and helps you channel your emotions with your hands.
  • 🎭 True expression: When words fail, your art speaks for you. Pottery becomes your voice and mirror.
  • 🌌 Quiet connection: Our community is made up of artists, thinkers, and deep feelers just like you.
“I’ve never belonged anywhere until I came here. As an INFJ, I feel the world too intensely sometimes. Pottery gave me peace, and this studio gave me community.” – Lillian, member since 2023

The Clay Hole: A Safe Space for INFJs in Utah

From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll notice something different. The lighting is soft. The energy is calm. People aren’t trying to “fix” you or force anything. Instead, we invite you to show up exactly as you are—and let the clay meet you there.

We’re not a one-time class kind of place. We believe healing takes repetition, comfort, and trust. That’s why our monthly memberships offer weekly access to our studio, with room to grow at your own pace.

  • Peaceful atmosphere for those who are overstimulated easily
  • 500+ glazes & 100+ underglazes for deep artistic exploration
  • Supportive instructors who respect your space and energy
  • Genuine community built around inclusivity, not small talk
  • Bonus pottery days and cozy hangouts for gentle connection

Whether you live in Salt Lake County, Utah Valley, or somewhere in between, we’re centrally located in Draper—right off the freeway, but miles away from the noise of the world.

“This space helped me put my fractured pieces back together—quietly, slowly, and without pressure. I can’t explain what it means to me.” – INFJ Member, Devon M.
