A Holistic Approach to Creativity and Vitality

1-day interactive workshop for 10 - 50 delegates

Developing Balance in the Organisation

Holism from the Greek holos (whole) is defined as an approach viewing wholes as greater than the sum of their parts (OED). Creativity and problem-solving requires the generation of new ideas and solutions which are often found outside the problem. Holism allows one to expand our imagination beyond the mere obvious. And just like 'holistic medicine' looks at the person as a whole taking various factors into consideration, not just the physical body symptoms, so too creativity should not be the domain of the mind only, but is very much linked to our perceptions of the physical world and our well being. Holistic creativity is about relationships between parts and ideas. It allows us to bridge poles, link body and mind and generate solutions to our problems.

Everyone should be creative. We are talking here of idea creativity rather than artistic creativity. Everyone can benefit from learning holistic creativity and problem-solving (for instance, 'kaizen', continuous improvement, is practiced by all in all walks of life in Japan). This workshop is based on some the best techniques found both in the West and in oriental philosophy. You can learn to excel in creative problem-solving - something that will help you in all aspects of your life.

It is said we only use 10% of our mind, so 90% remains latent potential waiting to be released. Yet very few of us actually learn ways to unleash that potential. Recent brain research has found that intelligence is not fixed, but can be learned. Techniques have been developed which are sometimes remarkably similar to age-old proven wisdoms found in Eastern philosophy. Is it possible that scientists have confirmed what ancient spiritual texts have stated since the beginning of time? In this workshop you explore some of the findings, East and West, modern and ancient, which can help you achieve far more than you believe, by awakening secret powers within you.

When you discover some of these powers and wisdoms, and understand to relationships between emotions, intuition and thoughts, you can awaken your power to bring wellness, abundance, health, security and peace to your life. Join this practical workshop to discover a magical vitality you probably did not know you had. You can cope better with paradoxes and dilemmas and achieve your full potential!

THE ONLY WORKSHOP WHERE YOU CAN EXPERIENCE A CROSS-SECTION OF WESTERN AND EASTERN WISDOM IN ACTION.

Who should attend:
The workshop is for those wanting better quality solutions to their challenges. It is also for individuals and professionals, who feel there is something missing in what they do in their daily lives, or who are seeking for a deeper meaning or purpose. Or it is also for those who simply want to expand their horizons, experience something quite different or find greater fulfillment in what they do.

Overview:
The workshop is based on some of the latest findings in science, blended with spiritual wisdoms and techniques of Eastern philosophy. This is a highly interactive workshop, with a lot of exchange among participants. At the end you will not only have recipes to take home, but you will also have made some new friends. You will learn a great deal, and you will be re-energized. Come and join us in a floating day of adventure, mystery and fun!
