THE HEART’S CALL: INTRO TO ART THERAPY

OPEN NOW FOR REGISTRATION

ONLY $49 EARLY BIRD RATE
$66 AFTER


STARTS 21st MARCH 2016

***LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE!***

Dearest ones,

Join me for a three week introduction to gaining meaning from your art and working with creativity in a therapeutic way

You may have heard of art therapy and of gaining insight by exploring what ‘appears’ at your art. But how and where do you start? This course will provide an introduction to art therapy. It will offer a clear method to begin to understand the deepest parts of yourself. The parts that may be difficult to access in everyday. These parts can hold energy and vitality and by exploring them help you to live a more vibrant life.

This course is for you if...

* You don't consider yourself to be an artist but are curious about how your creativity can help you gain insight and on reflect your life

* You are a therapist or counsellor and are curious how art could help you in your own reflection process and gain deeper insight into yourself and/or your clients process

* You recognize yourself as an artist and have a feeling there is something deeper in your art that you would like to understand but you haven't been able to work out what it is

* You have taken other self development workshops and art therapy keeps arising in your life. Maybe in your Facebook feed, in a colouring book you see at a store or a friend has mentioned it etc and you are curious

* You are a member of heART space or other art therapy group and you are ready to explore a little deeper


If you find yourself saying yes to any of these criteria
Sign up for one of our limited spaces now!

This course is a prerequisite to my other courses such as dreamwork or reclaiming our wisdom. Although previous experience of art therapy may enable you to proceed without this foundation. Please contact [email protected] for more information.

No previous art making experience is necessary to take this course. You will be guided through every step of the way and the emphasis is on the process and what it uncovers rather the the finished product. The primary forms of exploration are painting and journaling.


THE JOURNEY

WEEK 1: BACKGROUND

We will explore how through making art we can access the deepest parts of ourselves that are holding large amounts of untapped energy. When we release these parts we can begin to see massive shifts in our lives.
We will explore the unconscious and I will provide guidelines and a video to begin to tap into ourselves through paint and allowing the materials to ‘speak to us’.
You will also receive a series of guidelines and questions to use to journal about your experience.

WEEK 2: FOREGROUND

In the second week, I will explain my method of insight orientated art therapy and it can be applied to your life. I will explain arts connection to neuroscience and how being aware of this can affect our lives in each moment and transform our reality.
I will provide guidelines and a video to continue our creative journey using our intuition.
You will also receive further guidelines on how to use to journal to reflect deeply on your art.

WEEK 3: GAINING INSIGHT

In our third week, we will work with our art and journals to gain deep clarity about what is arising for us in our lives right now. The answers may be unexpected, joyful or give us the confirmation we were seeking. We will share our art in a private online forum and understand the therapeutic value of being witnessed. This will give us the opportunity to integrate what we have learnt and ask questions and establish our next steps.


Throughout this course, there is the opportunity to go deeper and to book a one on one exploration with me via Skype. Reduced rate: $59 usually $100 per hour.
