'JOURNEY INTO THE WILD CENTRE OF

CREATIVITY'-

on-going Creativity Coaching groups


Whether you are at the beginning path of

connecting or re-connecting with your creativity

or a seasoned artist, Creativity Coaching can support

you in various ways: exploring and unblocking obstacles

and patterns that might hinder you in fulfilling your

creative dreams, addressing practical, existential or

spiritual issues and celebrating your achievements.


These small groups offer a supportive and nurturing environment to work with hands-on creative exercises, space to create and time to address issues that might stand in the way of fulfilling your creative potential, such as procrastination, burn-out, loss of meaning etc.

Every session will include some creative and stimulating exercises, such as free- writing, mapping, collage, drawing, clay as well as time for discussion, exchange and actual creating time . We look at issues such as time-management, balance, how to avoid burn-out, strategies for regular creating etc.  and you are encouraged to commit to individual ‘homework’ in between sessions. The groups are on-going and a commitment for ten weeks initially is essential.

No artistic skills are needed only a willingness to work within a group and use creative media!

The groups are running weekly @ WILDWING at BLANK studios, Portslade

with a maximum of 6 participants each.

Tuesdays 6 pm to 7.30 pm

‘FIRE SONG OF THE HEART- A SHAMANIC CREATIVITY RETREAT FOR WOMEN- BELTANE, 1-3rd of May 09 at Tilton House Firle This Retreat offers a safe and exciting space to dive fully into the Centre of our creativity, to celebrate our unique expressions through the ancient practice of the shamanic journey, as well as voice work, Ritual, other creative media such as collage, mask-work, clay and working closely with and in nature. We are working with the special celebratory energy of Beltane to support and nurture our journey. The ‘Fire Song of the Heart’ Retreat will focus on discovering the voice and song as a way into the shamanic journey and to strengthen us in our creative expression and personal power. All retreats aims to: • strengthen the connection to our creative power; • sensitively work with possible obstacles and hesitations we might encounter; • explore tools to ground creativity in our lives and establish daily practice; • make space to honour, celebrate and affirm our unique creative talents and expressions within a circle of women. On this retreat shamanic journeys will be at the core of our exploration and will guide us in this process. The journeys may include a journey to the ‘spirit of our creativity’ to enquire how we can connect more deeply with our creative dreams and ambitions; how to deal with possible obstacles and a journey to find a daily ritual to honour our creativity and to ask for a personal ‘power song’. We will also draw from the Northern European shamanic tradition of Seidr, which uses voice and song as a way into the shamanic journey. We will be space to enjoy the beautiful environment in and around Tilton house. We will go on a ‘walk with intention’ and weather permitting create a fire ritual of release and affirmation. This retreat can be booked on its own or with one or two other retreats. No prior experience in voice work nor any artistic skills are necessary, only an openness to explore your own creative potential. An introduction to shamanic journeying is given, however some previous experience in shamanic work is helpful as the retreats are not primarily in-depth introduction to shamanic practice.
