Creativity, Our Soul's Playground

Booking now for Summer and Fall 2010
Businesses, Organizations, Churches open to ideas and talents can benefit from a half day, one day or weekend Creativity Retreat. Call Carmen at 817-726-0412 or email at carmengoldthwaite@ sbcglobal.net to schedule (or to discuss your ideas, questions and goals) for such an event.

   Schedule with us right away to get the weekend you want for your church or group and let us know which works best:

   • “The appetizer” offers a tantalizing taste of techniques to enrich a spiritual life that may seem empty temporarily; or, explore ways around and through “blocks” to your creative yearnings.

Had that and want more?

   • Then you might enjoy “the entrée,” an all day workshop where we focus on the quiet, play and breathing, opening to the spirit to bring forth the creative pursuit we prefer.

    Then, for women only…”the full course”

    • A weekend—Friday evening through lunch Sunday-- to retreat from distractions, refresh our learnings and renew the creative spirit—while experiencing our soul’s work and joy with paintbrush, pen, guitar, clay, dance, camera, whatever your talents call forth.

   “When we nourish our soul, our creativity springs forth,” our beliefs as well as those countenanced over the ages: Carmen Goldthwaite and SJ Mackenzie

   I partner with musician and therapist SJ Mackenzie in facilitating these retreats and workshops.

   So if you’re ready for your artistic talent(s) to spring forth…schedule a retreat for your group or church or contact us to be notified when a workshop or retreat is forming:
