Creative Regeneration with Kim Noriega

Regeneration—renewal, restoration, to be returned to a state of vigor especially following damage or loss—or a global pandemic. If you feel depleted and uninspired, or simply want to infuse your creative life with more joie de vivre, the Creative Regeneration process can rekindle your creative fire—that spark of sheer joy.

Creative Regeneration is a unique, four-part process, developed by Dr. Sarah Luczaj. You are likely familiar with some of the components—meditation, Gendlin’s focusing, free-writing, and intuitive painting. Each has value in and of itself. Combined, they have a synergistic impact that is intense, potent, and cumulative.

During this two-hour workshop, Kim Noriega—a certified Creative Regeneration facilitator—will take you through all four components of the process. Additionally, every participant will receive their own Ebook version of Dr. Luczaj’s book, "Creative Regeneration" for continued reference. You will need some supplies on hand for this workshop: whatever you’d like for meditation—a candle, incense, etc; pen and paper for freewriting; and paint—whatever suits you—and paper for the painting component. No knowledge or experience in any art form required to attend.
