Aliveness! Through creative practice
This course is an invitation to remember, invent, and discover ways we can engage with our creativity and get back in touch with the parts of our lives that are joyful and meaningful.
Course Goals
Why is it so hard to prioritize and actually do things that make us feel alive?
In this course we will remember, invent, and discover the ways we can engage with our creativity, and get back in touch with the parts of our lives that are joyful and meaningful. This course is an invitation... You will be asked to do things- whether it's writing or drawing stick figures or jumping up and down in your room in a way that feels good - is completely up to you.
In addition to class time, you will be asked to set aside time to work on creative projects, and spend at least five minutes each day reflecting and writing.
Structure
The course takes place over 4 weeks.
Each week we will meet to discuss the week's theme.
In addition, there will be an optional weekly session to provide support, ie time and space for actually doing.
