Mindful Creativity
Living Peace Yoga 2/20 The Boulevarde, Toronto, New South Wales, AustraliaArt, like meditation, allows us to create space between our sometimes negative, anxious thoughts and connect with our true selves. Art can help us access a deeper and more quiet part of ourselves; help us enter into a state of flow and present moment awareness; dive deeply into a cocoon of concentration."All true artists, whether they know it or not, create from a place of no-mind, from inner stillness”. Eckhart TolleThis workshop places the inner state of the yogi / artist as the main focus, witnessing the creative process as it takes place - the creator is both an artist and a witness. Begin to connect with your inherent creativity, letting go of expectation, judgement and unhelpful conditioning.Create sculptural forms using a combination of found objects and art materials using simple weaving and binding techniques. You will be guided through the processes of creating and assembling sculpture/collage. We will collect natural materials from the lake foreshore (practising the principles of Shinrin Yoku); you are also most welcome to bring materials from your own collections (string, beads, feathers, stone, seed pods, fabrics etc).
