Did you know you were born 
with these Innate Authentic Multiple Intelligences, I.am.I™
They include: emotional, creative, intuitive, imaginative, spiritual,
symbolic, visual and kinesthetic ways of knowing.
​

​In a world culture that increasingly prioritizes intellectual knowledge for the job market, society needs to rethink priorities and seek a balance that also values and includes educating the Innate Authentic Multiple Intelligences, I.am.I™ - our emotional, creative, spiritual, symbolic, intuitive, imaginative, visual and kinesthetic original ways of knowing. The acronym I.am.I™ Method of Spontaneous Painting was chosen to honor these intelligences.
​

Creative self-expression is a natural human gift we ALL can develop if given the opportunity. Whole Brain Learning programs, such as Spontaneous Painting, provide people - from the advantaged to the homeless, and populations with or without special needs - with effective tools to develop their innate authentic Self. When large numbers of people actualize their authentic Self, they can align with their unique potentials, life direction, and develop their I.am.I™

WHAT IS 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. 

The Whole Brain facilitator is trained first and foremost to listen empathically. She also creates and sustains an emotionally safe environment where individuals learn compassionate tools for relating to oneself and another, connecting beyond cultural stereotypes and prejudices, without blame or criticism, and ultimately deepening human connection. The act of Spontaneous Painting is a curative process, which catalyzes the symbols of one's Authentic Self (true identity), resulting in qualitative changes in our relationship to ourselves, and the way we relate toward one another.

The Whole Brain facilitator understands and supports the creative process and characteristics of the creative personality. In order to develop the creative personality in others, the facilitator needs to develop these qualities within and personally experience the transformative process of rebirthing their Authentic Self.  How might our lives be different today if we had been taught from kindergarten to adulthood by trained facilitators who valued not only our performance but also supported our creative potentials and human greatness. 

Instead of coping with painful emotions through addictions to food, drugs, alcohol, or suppressing them which leads to anxiety, depression, rage and even violence – approaches to Whole Brain Learning like The Spontaneous Painting Process offer individuals healthy, creative outlets to express all their emotions.

Objectives of the Spontaneous Painting Process and
Whole Brain Learning (WBL)

1. To understand the dynamics of the creative process and the blocks that inhibit the process of the creator. To discuss the conditions which are favorable for developing a creative environment in which risk-taking can occur. To be familiar with the characteristics of the creative personality. To understand the dynamics of the creative personality and develop teaching methodologies to encourage these characteristics in participants.
   
   
2. To stimulate creative intelligence through engaging in various activities such as creative writing, visualizations, artistic forms of expression in various mediums, Biodanza movement, and other forms of corporeal expression, Mindfulness Meditation, and other vias of stimulating creative thought.
   
   
3. To become familiar with various states of consciousness, natural intelligences and language systems besides those of rational and intellectual perception, for example: kinesthetic, emotional, intrapersonal, interpersonal, musical, linguistic, logical, spatial (space-time), spiritual, symbolic learning and various symbolic language systems which express in artistic creations, dreams, myths and fairytales.
   
   
4. To develop emotional and spiritual education and explore new teaching methodologies in this field.
   
   
5. To promote opportunities for participants to transmit to the canvas the emotions they experience at an unconscious level, awakening Self-awareness.
   
   
6. To encourage the participants in their search for understanding another potential of art. Study the intimate relationship between creativity and archetypal image, and how Spontaneous Painting is a way of expressing an immanent and transcendent reality, through the exploration of essential unconscious contents that aid in strengthening one's authentic Self identity.
   
   
7. To introduce the learning of communication skills for working with groups, facilitating comprehension of the systematic processes occurring in groups and how to create harmony and facilitate methods of meaningful interaction and open discussion.
   
   
8. To encourage participants to develop an internal source of inspiration and develop the self-confidence to believe in their intuitive, creative voice (or muse).
