Creative Fire: 6-Week Summer Course
Explore your creativity in six ordinary areas of life
Dear Alchemists,
Would you like to feel more creative? This is really at the heart of what the Alchemists Clubhouse is all about, and so I’m excited to offer a new 6-week course next month celebrating the fiery, expressive energy of Summer. We begin right after the Summer Solstice, the week of June 23, and the group is limited to 8 participants.
ABOUT THE COURSE
We will explore creativity in six ordinary areas of life – places where you may not normally think of yourself as being creative! Doing the dishes? Meditation? Work? Your everyday life can be a lot more creative with a lot less effort than you might expect.
Often it’s simply the act of asking the question, how else might I do this if there were no rules?
OR
What meaning am I giving this activity?
We will use a combination of somatic practice, writing exercises, coaching techniques, and supplemental reading and podcast assignments to nurture your creative fire and transform any obstacles into gold. Scroll down for an outline and more details!
As I wrote about recently, obstacles to creative flow are not “in the way.” Rather THEY ARE THE WAY. Obstacles are raw material for alchemical transformation and we will hold them together with a sense of honor and curiosity.
