Imagination Activation: how trance states cultivate creativity
hosted by Corporeal Writing
This is a workshop for anyone who wants to utilize trance work, altered states of consciousness and their active imagination to cultivate their creativity. We will work with a variety of techniques inspired by hypnotherapy, shamanic journeying, psychic channeling, ’spirit writing,’ quantum physics and the animistic framework to move past the critical mind into an expanded, receptive and imaginative state of being. From there we will meet and engage with helpers, places of power, and our own creator archetypes to better support and understand our creative self, our abilities, and any pieces or projects we may currently be working on or dreaming up.
