LIVING ART: A profound training in the creative process
Living Art is a week-long, retreat where the depth of the creative process takes centre stage. From January 12–19, 2025, join us in the inspiring surroundings of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, for a experiential week that goes beyond any traditional workshops. Led by experts trained in the renowned teachings of Robert Fritz, this retreat will teach you the structural approach to the creative process, one that is fast, clear, and amazing. This learning will have profound impact on all of your life building processes.
During the workshop, you will be able to explore four of the most critical life issues
there are:
▪️ Identity
▪️ Purpose and Existence
▪️ Freedom and Control
▪️ Parental preoccupation
By working through theses issues, you may experience a change of your underlying structure, that will enable you to live your life according to your highest aspirations and deepest values.

Connections

What can one expect from LIVING ART?
The workshop is a full learning experience, with more to absorb than the length of the time you are there. Over weeks and months, you will notice many new changes in your life. It is as if your life is given a fresh and new beginning, in which the depth of the creative process becomes available to you in your life-building process like never before. We could call it a new orientation, a new underlying structure, a new lease on life.
The process of assimilating the creative process in your life does not come from pep talks or a change of attitudes. It comes from creating. The workshop structures several various types of creative projects for you to experience directly. Just as in learning to swim, you need to get into the water, to learn to create, you need several direct hands-on experiences of the creative process.
FUN! The workshop seems to fly by as each exciting day is not only profound, but also a great time. People develop wonderful relationships with their fellow participants, and toward the end of the workshop, they don’t want to leave. For many, not only is the workshop life-changing, but one of the best times they have ever had.
What were your most valuable learnings from the retreat?
“I don’t have to change myself or others to create my life. A lot of my struggles are becoming irrelevant just by refocusing on what is the outcome I want”
