TODAY we are proud to announce the release of a new online course Healing Artist's Block: Connecting with your Creative Flow. This innovative tutorial teaches a number of applicable exercises for times when you feel tense, anxious or stuck, caught in unproductive loops of self-criticism. The three-hour tutorial, which is vividly illustrated with filmed case histories, teaches a number of different approaches such as automatic writing, bilateral writing, rhythmic drawing to music, and Guided Drawing exercises designed to release inner tension and frustration. Exercises based on C. G. Jung's concept of the Night Sea Journey reframe depression as part of the creative process. Collage ideas and instructions for creating a visual mission statement are designed as a spiritual resource. The course is suitable not only for artists, but for anyone who wants to find that inner 'flow'-state of creativity. Follow the link in the bio...

With the next ONLINE "Healing Trauma with Guided Drawing" term about to start in February, I thought I would re-post this featured blog that appeared in the December newsletter - The Primary Shapes in Guided Drawing: The Spiral. Part of a series discussing elements of Guided Drawing. For anyone interested in taking this course, places are still available for enrollment. Head to the website for more info.

IMAGINE
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
John Lennon

For now I wish you a Merry Christmas and happy holidays…
Love Cornelia
