You need to play more…

Play is a vital aspect of human life, for adults as well as children. The act of play is the doorway to creativity, social connection, and overall wellbeing. However, it often seems difficult to embody the spirit of play in our day-to-day lives.

You might say that THROUGH THE EYES OF A CHILD is “inner child” work, but not in the way it’s usually described. Through understanding the connections between play and indigenous understandings of personal initiation, this workshop illuminates how you might bring joy, ease, and style to your work and relationships.

In this free online event, Lee Saville-Iksic presents a synthesis of work from the fields of anthropology, neurobiology, transpersonal psychology, and applied mythology, offered through the lens of his own 18+ years of experience as an artist, educator, and parent.

Who is this for?

• Parents, school teachers, grandparents, educators, and caregivers

• Artists, poets, writers, musicians, and other creators

• Seekers, storytellers, and soul-searchers

• Those with an interest in depth psychology and personal development
