Win this workshop:

I will select 1 winner from those of you who comment on this post between Today, July 17, and Tuesday July 21st. The winner will be posted on July 22 and will receive a free "ticket" to this amazing on-line workshop. Visual Journaling is a tool for all who feel they need to do some work around integrating the left and right sides of their brains.

To Enter:

Just comment below and tell us why you think Visual Journaling will help you and what you think it can help you with. Are you experiencing a creative block? Are the two sides of your brain getting along or is one more dominant than the other? What is your biggest barrier to engaging your left brain or for that matter the right brain? Be imaginative, be creative and don't be afraid.


PowerFULL Magical Visual Journals: a creative process that can change your life (seriously!)

Most creatives suffer from split brains, and often spend their lives wondering what's wrong with them. But the split brain syndrome is not only found in creatives, the traditionally educated engineers, managers, MBAs etc. also suffer from the same syndrome. The symptoms of Split Brain Syndrome are a limited ability to integrate both the logical and the creative, in other words a lack of whole brain perception.

Designed to provide similar material and guidance as the live version this class will be an online workshop that includes:

  • 90 minute self-paced mp3 tutorial
  • Full-color course workbook loaded with examples and visual journal prompts
  • Access to private workshop discussion forum moderated by Lisa Sonora Beam

According to "Lisa Creatives tend to be visual, action-oriented learners. We respond to visual stimuli. We also need to be engaged in a personal, meaningful way with the material we are learning. For the past 20 years, I have taught visual journaling as a powerful way to develop problem-solving abilities and gain insights in ways that linear, nonvisual approaches to thinking and learning don't access."

visual journal workshop mandalaIn the Power Visual Journaling workshop you will learn:

  • The secrets to creating a journal you will actually work in and use regularly
  • All about art supplies: the best, cheapest, funnest— and most meaninigful— ways to incorporate imagery into your journal
  • Ways of dealing with procrastination, self-criticism, judgments and other emotions that keep us from not working
  • How deal with wanting your pages to look "artistic" and still get your rough ideas down. Yes, you can have both!
  • All about writing: what to write, when to write, how to write and layer images—learn the techniques that work for you
  • How to return to your journal after an absence
  • Ways of finding support and comraderie for your creative process that support your ways of working
  • What we mean by "Secret": Surprising and fun ways of getting your ideas out without fear of prying eyes
  • How to integrate your practices: What about morning pages, dream journals, gratitude journals and other stuff?

What you'll get:

These are incredibly powerful practices that align your conscious and subconscious mind, and make the most of your left and right brain strengths. We will practice and apply these tools using fun, engaging visual journaling processes that you can adapt and continue to use on your own, long after the workshop.

You will leave with a custom-created visual journal brimming with texture, pattern, color, and verbal and visual cues to kick start your imagination, along with plenty of inspiration and support to keep going long after the workshop.

I love visual jour­nal­ing, I have done it in the past but I have also recently got­ten more into dif­fer­ent styles and ideas. Within the past cou­ple of years I have fallen into quite a rut, a lot of unsorted emo­tions, depres­sion and recently deal­ing with the death of an extremely close friend. I have found that tak­ing the steps to over­come my fear of the blank page, and express­ing myself freely and with­out any hes­i­ta­tion both ver­bally and artis­ti­cally is one of the most ther­a­peu­tic things one can do .

Visual jour­nal­ing is a great tool. I have Lisa’s book and would love to win this class!! I keep a visual jour­nal, but I could use the extra tips on using the jour­nal to help me focus on grow­ing my art and writ­ing busi­ness.

I just found your blog today. It seems to be packed with so much infor­ma­tion I will have to come back sev­eral more times to digest it all.
I would love to win the ticket because I am a main­frame com­puter geek work­ing with a great data­base prod­uct at the moment which is what pays the bills. I am also work­ing on build­ing a fine art pho­tog­ra­phy busi­ness.
Although I’ve taken class(es) in mar­ket­ing and read books and use social net­works, I still feel there is some­thing I am miss­ing per­son­ally. Maybe this left/right brain link is that thing.
But win or not, I’ll be back to read more and learn all I can so one day I can hang up the big blue job and go with the one includ­ing all the col­ors of the world in my pho­tos.
Peace, Judi
