Creativity & Play
Creativity and play are key to human development - not only as a child but as an adult with the benefits of both spanning personal and professional life.
“There is no doubt that creativity is the most important human resource of all. Without creativity, there would be no progress, and we would be forever repeating the same patterns” Edward de Bone

Allowing yourself to play goes against everything that you are expected to do as a grown up, however letting go and having space and time to play is proven to have huge benefits. There are many different ways in which we can play and I have designed workshops where play can be incorporated into your personal or professional life.
“We don’t stop playing because we grow old… we grow old because we stop playing” George Bernard Shaw
