Imagining things

by Kate Johnson, in category creativity

This today from a blog I loved and lost, and found again. “The term “imagination” in what I take to be its truest sense refers to a mental faculty that some people have used and thought about with the utmost seriousness.

Everyday creativity

by Kate Johnson, in category creativity

Here I am, listening to Miles Davis, trying to suss out a tangle of notes from a client project…  If you were to look from the outside, you’d see me hunched (horribly) over my keyboard, tea gone cold in my mug, my brain following paths looking for the ease that indicates the ah ha that… Read More

Gratitude

by Kate Johnson, in category retreat

In our busy lives, it is so hard to carve out time, even small bits, to explore our own edges, to push our boundaries, to try new things. It is hard sometimes to find time to do the things we already know we love! Thank you to everyone who took part in the Campfire workshop… Read More

Campfire: Closing Campfire

by Kate Johnson, in category Campfire, Uncategorized, workshop

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIX28aHasPU?rel=0&w=420&h=315] This weekend was about allowing ourselves to be brave, in small ways, by taking ourselves out of our comfort zones of known behaviors, of known skills, of known territory. This was about exploration, and serendipity, about happy accidents, and stolen moments. This, for me, was about strong tea and gluten free cupcakes, waist-high… Read More

Campfire: Shoulds and Self-Compassion

by Kate Johnson, in category Campfire, Uncategorized, workshop

I am not sure anything is more beautiful than long shadows on snow.  The sky is an insane blue today, so clear, and the sun is low but warm. And I have needed to *make myself pay attention*, get out of my own way, notice the beauty that is right there, right outside my window.… Read More

Campfire: Perspective

by Kate Johnson, in category Campfire, Uncategorized, workshop

Starting this morning with a breath. Snow is sparkling through the air. Yes, there is so much to do today for so many people. So much shoveling. So much to get ready for the week. For those of you feeling there is too much to do to really delve into this, I have an invitation… Read More

Campfire: Fantasy vs Reality

by Kate Johnson, in category Campfire, Uncategorized, workshop

Fantasy:  I retire to my well-lighted, warm studio with high ceilings, where I also have a comfy chair or two, and a well-stocked fridge. And a tea kettle.  I do my work (yoga, paint, write) to the sound of music or birds or silence. I have enough of whatever I need: time, space, energy, stuff.… Read More

Campfire: Strong tea, permission and a plan

by Kate Johnson, in category Campfire, Uncategorized, workshop

      Good morning! So here we are, it is morning and there is snow and wind and a day stretching ahead with a 2 year old cooped up in a small apartment and… OY.  Oh well, even when it is not ideal, even when there is not much space, creativity needs to anyway!… Read More
