Living Creatively

Site updated: 20/02/2008


Living Creatively Weekend Courses Small Groups Policy: We believe in quality of tuition and operate a maximum group size of 12, which means we can give individuals the attention they need. Because of limited spaces we advise you book early. These practical and experiential weekend courses run from Friday through to Sunday, offering a unique group experience. Our courses have a fresh approach to the creative process by combining NLP with creativity. We start from the premise that everyone is creative and that 'none of us is as creative as all of us.' By exploring our unique structure anyone can have access to the limitless sparks of creativity that we all possess. Our exercises work by discovering your inner landscape; tapping into sources of inspiration from within, connecting with the creative abundance sometimes held at an unconscious level as well as encouraging you to draw stimulating ideas from the external environment around you. Our process enables you to recognise and acknowledge your creative nature, giving you the confidence to express and show your work to a wider audience, whilst learning how to balance your response to internal and external criticism. We also believe that if you are creative in one area then you can be creative in another and another, techniques can be mapped across into different contexts. Many of us feel trapped by beliefs that we cannot do this or that, Living Creatively quashes those self-debilitating beliefs and liberates your creative self. Envisage a new creatively productive you, ready to unleash and integrate your imagination in all areas of your life so that you can truly live your creative potential. Course includes: Creative journeying/ Open Hand/ Peripheral Vision Poetry/ Inner Critic Portrait/ Expanding Creativity/ Disney Creative Strategy Cookery Challenge/ Masks of Creative self/ Creative Timelines/ Collective Collage/ Musical Poetry.
