Creativity & Social Change workshop, Esalen Institute. CEUs available March 4, 2011

Friday March 4th, 7 pm to Sunday March 6th, 1 pm

In this experiential workshop, we will use the creative process to explore imaginal space, the realm of inner vision and inner knowing. Social change and creative process are integrally interconnected; artists and creatives have always been at the forefront of anything new. In fact, ideas can be expressed through creative processes that can't be expressed in any other way. Whether at the individual level or the cultural level, we need art and creative process in order to have meaningful change. Drawing on the wisdom that lies at the center of any group with a shared purpose, we will create a sturdy container to experience creative process as a vehicle for personal and planetary change, deeply listening for what wants to be birthed through us. This is a workshop for creatives, visionaries, and people who find themselves frustrated by traditional tools and methods. Join us as we re-open the realm of possibilities and potential. CEUS are available for MFTs and LCSWs.
