A nurturing space for change…

Many of the posts here at CreativGrowth are ideas developed in the Visual Thinking classes I’ve been teaching at LMU for 18 years. I have been a fan of Shakti Gawain’s guided meditations since my early 20’s. She is the author of Creative Visualization, which is a book / audio book full of exercises that seem to switch on my creativity.

Another work is about Creative Sanctuaries. I use a variation of this in class, basically you relax, walk down a path to a special, safe, beautiful place which nurtures you. I often see the view shown in this photo, looking out over the coast of Kauai from several thousand feet high.
