Creativity Coaching and Career Coaching Groups...
Connect with the joy of creativity. Make space for your spirit to soar....
Currently art and soul offers;
~ one-day, weekend or two half-day playshops, e.g. Wish Flags, Nourish
and Flourish, Power Mandala
~ ongoing weekday courses over several sessions e.g the Writing Nest
Most playshops are oriented to either art-making or writing, yet there is often a flow across different forms of creative expression.
Playshops take place either in a lovely space in Glebe, Sydney
or in conjunction with various organisations, such as NSW Writers' Centre, Sydney Community College, Grafton Artsfest, North Sydney Community Centre and Quest for Life Centre.
Art and Soul also offers sessions within organisations or for existing groups, making use of art, writing or playback theatre as fabulous, creative, strengths-based ways of team-building and visioning.

Other groups on offer are....
Creative Wellspring
Boost your creative health
There will be a gentle, strong holding structure
- a safe space for you to nourish your soul through art-making or writing from the heart.
Each session will include an art or writing warm-up activity
designed to free up and honour your unique expression,
followed by an opportunity to engage with another guided creative process
OR to work and play with your own creative project if you have one.
There will be room for individual guidance and facilitation within a small group.
You can expect to leave each session with
~ your artistic spirit well-fed and watered
~ a deeper connection with the creative you
~ the satisfaction of being further down the track
of a creative project if you have one
~ insights and discoveries from the creative process
about how to live your life more fully!
Flow
Just beneath the surface in each of us...
Would you like to free up, energise and revitalise yourself and your writing?
Are you stuck? Blocked? Not sure how to get started? Or perhaps you are fine with starting, but somewhere along the line you fizzled out and came to a standstill. In this course, we engage in simple, enjoyable exercises, which you can take away and use at any time - even when you're not feeling inspired.
You could think of these exercises as touch points along the meridians which carry creative life force - the stream of energy flowing just beneath the surface in each of us.
Let's then indulge in some 'acu-writing', or 'word-chi' to free the flow.
You can hope to complete the day refreshed and buzzing with confidence to express your true self.
Wish Flags
bringing your dreams into being
What are your heart's wishes? Gently connect with your inner vision.
Allow images, shapes and colours to bubble up from inside you.
Paint, draw, stitch, collage, feather, sequin your vision onto paper or fabric.
Fly your Wish Flags as ongoing guiding images to bring your hopes and dreams into being.
No art experience is necessary for a richly satisfying experience.
Nourish and Flourish
the art of self-care
Free up. Connect with your heart of creative power.
This is a double-whammy feast, where you explore what nourishment means to you
and you conduct the exploration using yummy art materials.
Mmmmmm.
The focus is on process awareness rather than getting it right.
Experienced and inexperienced art and soulies welcome - where we are is where we begin
