You need to play more…

Play is a vital aspect of human life, for adults as well as children. The act of play is a 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/psychological understandings of personal initiation, this workshop illuminates how you might bring more 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
