Program Description:
In our culture it's considered appropriate to let creativity take a back seat to other perceived priorities. However, Oriah Mountain Dreamer believes creativity is a necessary part of an engaged and fulfilling life, and a valuable key to our spirituality. We often feel self-indulgent when we take time out for self-expression, but she helps us recognize why it's one of the most important things we do all day. She explains, "Whether we write or paint or dance or compose, we are making meaning from the events of our lives, and that feeds our souls and shows us who we are." As a much loved author and teacher, Ms. Mountain Dreamer shares many techniques that will make it easy to for you to let creativity become part of your daily practice. She explains how to effortlessly produce better work than you believed was possible, and offers ways to use time and space to find your muse-on the way to finding your soul.
