RIGHT-BRAIN WORKOUT

Betty Edwards, in Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, says that our culture trains us into left-brain dominance to keep up with our fast-paced world. The left-brain is the assembly-line taskmaster. Edwards introduces simple exercises to gain access to the imaginative right side of the brain, the source of feelings of inner peace, global thinking, free association, and “aha” moments. Right Brain Workout unlocks the doors to your imagination! With regular practice of the exercises ”non-artists” are able to experience the bursts of imagination that artists, inventors, writers and other creative people depend on for innovation and creativity. You are not “drawing.” You observe the edges and shapes of an object and record your eye movement, just as a seismograph records earth movement.

Imagination Arts™ teaches an effortless process to help bring your left-brain and right-brain into balance so you have more brain power in your life. Lecture: slide show, motivational talk, explanation of the process, why it works, benefits. Experiential: do the exercises, feel the results. Handouts for additional exercises for home, school, office.

Facilitated by Kristen S. Boyesen, Life Learning & Creativity Coach. Member Mind-Body-Spirit Connection Speakers Bureau, Cleveland Coach Federation, and COSE. Director of Out-of-the-Box Thinking for Imagination Arts.

PARENT-CHILD BONDING

There are very few activities parents and children can do together where both parent and child can be equally challenged, equally experiencing something new, equally successful and equally vulnerable. Such a sharing between parent and child creates new bonds of closeness, awareness, and understanding of each for the other.

Imagination Arts™ is a fun and relaxing approach to connecting with the world and with each other. The easy observational and participatory exercises facilitate a harmonizing balance between mind and body while providing an opportunity to share a new experience together as a family.

Lecture: short slide show, motivational talk, explanation of the process, why it works, benefits. Experiential: do the exercises, feel the results. Handouts for additional exercises.

Facilitated by Kristen S. Boyesen, Life Learning & Creativity Coach. Member Mind-Body-Spirit Connection Speakers Bureau, Cleveland Coach Federation, and COSE. Director of Out-of-the-Box Thinking for Imagination Arts.

MEDITATION THROUGH OBSERVATION

Imagination Arts™ exercises take the mind out of its seemingly endless pattern of thinking, planning and doing, and allow it to become calm and quiet. Attain a natural, peaceful meditative state while being fully awake and alert. Forget your notions about meditation! The exercises introduced in this class are more like entertainment than an approach to restructuring your life. Producing results in as little as five minutes, the technique can be used as a refreshing break at the office, daily practice, or with a group to focus attention before a meeting. The exercises are based on the book Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards. Edwards writes, “awareness of the passage of time fades away, and words recede from consciousness.

Meditation through Observation teaches an effortless process to facilitate a harmonizing balance between mind and body. Lecture: slide show, motivational talk, explanation of the process, why it works, benefits. Experiential: do the exercises, feel the results. Handouts for additional exercises for home, school, office.
