The Power of Creativity![]() Going into the spring, often the spark of creativity reigns high. The days are inspirational with all their beauty, flowers, scents, bright colours and spring skies. Or perhaps the gentle tap of fresh rain storms, mixed with thunder and lightning clear the space. If you are a creative you will know that when that creativity, wanes, it is a clear insight into the person, or situation. For myself, the time since Easter, was hard to bring creativity forward, illness was around each days start, and energy was perhaps fleeting, an hour here in the morning or there, but just like new buds, I knew that it was ending, when the creativity begin to well like soft, ready shoots. Going to the water helped to rekindle that and aid with repair. With the passing of Earth Day, Arbor day and May Day, nature again propels us into our spark. Recent events, put a damper on the spirit as well, with a change in the climate of a larger project, and often we are left to redefine ourselves and our place. "Bloom where you are planted" those words were etched into my brain by my mother, perhaps one of the greatest sentences that held a place of power for me and ultimate truth. Bloom, where you are planted. Sometimes, every day begs us to start over, and that is the power of creativity. Each day we are creating, whether consciously or not consciously. It's when we are conscious in our building, our creativity, that the most wonderful things, begin to happen. We are seeing a climate in this world, where narratives of control and separation run rampant, but who is creating that? We could begin to say...we are, collectively. So with each new day, let's begin to sing a different song, a song of peace, a song of unity, a song of joy. Make a joyful noise...this passage I also grew up with reminds me of the power of song, to stimulate and inspire our creativity. While we are creating, we can create anything that we want to learn about, experience or explore. Teachers, parents, and children, need the opportunity to make the most of their life and their time here, by creating learning that suits them, moves, them, inspires them and creates a spark of creativity. Our Create-A-Courses do just that. Have you wanted to learn about the stars? Wanted to explore the artists of today or the past? Wanted to navigate the oceans of the world through exploration? Wanted to learn new strategies to teach? We can create that with you, right here! Create a Classroom

Breaking Duality, Positive Femininity creates a Healthy Humanity - This is not just for women, not just for adults, all our definitions, and agreements that we hold about ourselves and each other may be getting in our way to remove old habitual forms of control, such as the (Arch) type models that lead up to a pinnacle, versus a circular model. This is a look at human relations, conditions, precepts, and unspoken agreements we hold that keep us locked in dualistic battles of right, wrong, and power over, versus power with. This is a journal exercise to illicit a beginning understanding of duality in our common mental framework and how that is pitting people against each other, and leading to things like toxic masculinity, toxic femininity, and toxic models of government, leadership, and business. Even the subtitle, may illicit discussion and guess what? That is where we are in this world, re-defining. So let's get cooking, and start to delve within to create some healthy discussion, discourse, and dialogue, first with self and then we will share with others. Group Course coming soon.

Materials: Bring a Notebook, Pen, and your hand-out. In all things, whether, working in the garden, your home, your work, keep creativity at the head of what you do, and lead with a wise heart. Remember our teachers, in this difficult time that they live and work in and remember, many teachers work up to 60 or 80 hours a week, as much of what they do comes home with them. They are understaffed and often underpaid. If you truly want to make a difference in a teacher's life...press for more money for schools. Our focus, is mismanaged right now and "our right to bear" often outweighs our right to live. This is as blunt as I will be. Consider doing something for your mother, not just a card or flowers, but something that allows her to let go for the day. Do the dishes, plan a meal, anything doing, is always best. Often, quiet time, or a journal and an art museum, might make a mother happy, or seeing her kids again after a long, long time. But let her relax, just one day of the year at least:) Self care, is family care. We look forward to our new series "Ten Minutes of Time" and hope you join us for the premier of our new learning series. This will be one of our more intense series with truly in depth studies that bridge all ages and stages. Do you want to become a collaborator with Naradahaus.org? Do you want to be spotlighted?
