The Creativity Manifesto<\/h1>\n

Audacious Creating. \u00a0Amazing Support. \u00a0Contagious Healing.<\/em><\/h3>\n

Care of the soul is quite different in scope from modern notions of psychology and psychotherapy.\u00a0It isn’t about curing, fixing, changing, adjusting or making healthy, and it isn’t about some idea of perfection or even improvement.\u00a0It doesn’t look to the future for an ideal, trouble-free existence.\u00a0Rather it remains patiently in the present, close to life as it presents itself day by day. Care of the soul is a sacred art.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thomas Moore from Care of the Soul: A Guide for \u0003Cultivating Depth and Sacredness in Everyday Life <\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The work we do at Healing Icons is a sacred art. We delve deep into our subconscious minds, our hearts, our pasts and presents, to care for our souls through art-making. To help guide us in this process, we\u2019ve written the following creativity manifesto.<\/p>\n

“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”<\/em><\/h2>\n

Antoine de Saint-Exupery<\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Listen to your \u201cInner Voice\u201d.<\/strong>
    \nIt is crucial to the artistic process.<\/li>\n
  2. Engage and let go.<\/strong>
    \nTrust the process.<\/li>\n
  3. There is no right or wrong way to create,<\/strong>
    \njust different ways.<\/li>\n
  4. Art belongs to the People<\/strong>
    \nnot just to the trained \u201celite\u201d.<\/li>\n
  5. Everyone has creativity<\/strong>
    \nwithin their being.<\/li>\n
  6. Art is a language<\/strong>
    \nfor expressing our \u201cinside\u201d voice.<\/li>\n
  7. Art leads us<\/strong>
    \non a \u0003journey into self-discovery.<\/li>\n
  8. The creative process<\/strong>
    \nis just as important as the product.<\/li>\n
  9. Art teaches us many ways to view<\/strong>
    \nand interpret of world.<\/li>\n
  10. Infuse your life with Creativity<\/strong>
    \nIt will feed your soul and heal your spirit<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
