Play is one of the highest spiritual forms of being. When we're in that state, we get lost in ourselves,
which allows the mind to receive the message of the spirit. Dr. Ellie Katz, 'playologist'

DYNAMIC DIALOGUES: Drawing on an amazing 66 years of inner and outer explorations, challenges, changes, risk-taking and a passion to “Know Thyself,” inspirational author and speaker, Barbara Brewster, will, with joy and clarity, help participants gain greater awareness, tools, skills and enthusiasm for embracing, creating and living the fullness of what’s possible for them at this time of massive personal and global changes. This is NOT a serious event. Time permitting, we’ll sample some ways to stimulate more lightness, in your life. Refer to Events Schedule for dates, venues & booking details »»
RAMBUNCTIOUS WRITING: Have Fun! Find Freedom! Discover the power of playful writing to help us reconnect with and expand our self-awareness, creativity and wholeness. Whether or not you’re a “writer,” in this gentle but exhilarating workshop we’ll shake out the cobwebs, stimulate our spontaneity and tickle our imaginations, laugh a lot—and perhaps unveil some surprising personal insights.

THE POWER OF PLAY (POP!) FOR ADULTS & TEENS: “Playing around” has profound health and problem-solving benefits, but how do we unleash our lightness? In this playshop, simple games and processes will help us to rediscover our original, yet too-often censored, sparkly and creative selves. In safe, relaxed, pure FUN we laughingly connect with others and open ourselves to a powerful tool to help reduce stress, defeat depression, and stimulate health, creativity, joy and exuberance..

LIVING FULLY (FOR TEENS): Certain qualities, principles, choices and commitments are involved in living life to the full.
