  May 29 (Tue) 2012 The Power of Journaling ($39) 6:30 pm—9:30 pm VT 57205

  Journaling allows us to absorb information more effectively. It also helps us be more focused and creative. It awakens a new level of awareness. It creates more space for deeper thoughts to come through. Our minds work at about 1000 words per minute. When we write, the mind slows down to about 100 words a minute. This course brings in an additional element by using images with words to bring balance to your right and left brain thinking. Join us to explore the power of different journaling tools and experience new ways of thinking. A VSB Fine Arts Diploma course.
