Creative Heart
Sunday, May 3, 2020 — 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM
Gaia recognizes the benefits and efficacy of allying art and coaching to enrich and profoundly transform the culture of organizations. Many studies demonstrate the relevance and effectiveness of right brain approaches like practicing art in the workplace. Arts-based learning is already used in many sectors in business from law firms, Fortune 500 companies, to local councils and community-based organizations.
Go Creative ! Corporate Coaching modules are well tested, unique, hands-on art workshops that help organizations foster creativity, work more efficiently and grow to be healthy and successful.
Creative Heart is a hands-on sensitivity training to practice empathy, respect, healthy communication and to cultivate awareness of our human diversity.
Workshop objectives:
- Create a gentle openness and build trust between colleagues
- Learn and practice conscious communication skills
- Address unspoken bias, blind spots and stereotyping
- Understanding and accepting of differences
Gaia has been engaged in a regular mindfulness practice for the past 19 years. Attention to the breath, connection to the present moment, awareness of feelings, inclusion of emotional intelligence and conscious communication tools are all used as a foundation for her workshops.
Participants will come away with:
- Opening to change and embracing diversity
- Softening, learning and growing
- Truly hearing and receiving each other
