The Creativity and Meditative Art approach that I offer is based on the ART THERAPY AND PAINTING process that Meera Hashimoto has developed over 40 years and is ultimately based on Osho’s vision of creativity.

A creative act, in this understanding, is born out of a silence within us, it has spontaneity and we will be surprised by ourselves. True creativity happens, when we become more sensitive, more open, more alive. We let existence flow through us and express itself through our hands - we become just like a passage, like a hollow bamboo. We tap into a state of being, into meditation - non-serious, joyful, innocent, loving. When we experience this in painting, we can bring the same quality also into our life - to anything that we are doing.

By nature, we are all creative, to live means to be creative. But because of our conditioning and what has happened in our life, when we grew up, we become blocked, we are afraid to express our nature and show ourselves.

In my workshops, I offer a safe and nourishing space to explore painting as a form of meditation and self-exploration. These workshops are not about learning to paint in a traditional sense — they are about giving yourself permission to be authentic, to feel, to express, and to rediscover your aliveness and the joy of creativity, without pressure or expectation. Besides painting we include meditation, dance, body exercises, group dynamics, therapeutic exercises and personal sharing. The workshop program includes: Primal Painting, Portrait Painting, Creativity of the Inner Man/Inner Woman and Painting in Nature.
