The I.am.I™ Method of Spontaneous Painting
Facilitator Training - 2012
What is Whole Brain Learning?
Whole Brain Learning (WBL) bridges the conscious and unconscious mind, develops unilaterally the right and left brain processes in a balanced way, educating the whole human being, body, mind, and spirit. The mission of our organization is to include a Whole Brain Learning approach in education to expand consciousness by offering such programs as Spontaneous Painting.
Uniting together, we can create a people-centered initiative and coalition to effect social change. What do WE need in order to begin? We need to train facilitators who will be cultural change makers, and schools and organizations willing to participate in facilitator training programs. Wherever you live, you can teach this method to others. Where does inspiration come from? It comes from within. If we begin to educate people to discover their unique gifts, and manifest them, then we are building a culture of peace. We would like to hear from YOU! If you feel called, take the first step.
