• Difficulty (1-5): 3
• Class Size: This class is limited to 20 students.
• Course Description: A 12-week course in three parts dealing with creative blocks (writer's block if you will) through spiritual exercises releasing our creative energy. Using the basic principles as set forth in Julia Cameron's, The Artist's Way, we will travel on a mystic journey toward creative recovery. Part of this recovery will be accomplished through our daily journal or 'Morning Pages'. We will learn to protect and nurture our inner artist and squelch our Censor or 'logic brain' who is our second, third and fourth thoughts, and ultimately detach ourselves from this Censor to arrive at the creative freedom we're looking for. This is a 12-week course of self-discovery.
