Creativity Focusing uses a practice we call Arts To Focusing Joy (AFJ). Arts to Focusing Joy celebrates the joy of owning your creative being-and-becoming

Focusing Joy is to be found in the one place that is always there for you. You can't miss it as this place is your living body. Actually you are your living body

Your living body is a being-and-becoming, means: There is more than just a body that 'is' or 'lives'. The living body is no physical thing nor some existential dimension. The living body is a moving forward towards something and a pointing towards something that always is a new becoming

You may lose your creative spark and your joy of being-and becoming now and then, along with your connection to you being your body. You may come to moments where you cannot feel the body from within at all. But as the living body is always there, is always you, you can find back to feeling your body and the place inside of your body that is home. You can get back to your creativity and Focusing Joy by doing art that comes from movement and intuition. Continuity in doing embodied arts is the doorway to finding your way back home

Your Body has infinite possibilities of forwarding a More of aliveness. Your aliveness has infinite possiblities to show up and get expressed. Artistic expression has infinite possiblities as invitation

The moment your are expressing yourself through arts that come from the body, you are connected to this multitude of infinite possibilities

Access to all of these possibilities comes with a joy that only you can have. It's the joy of being your creative living forward. This joy is the seed for action that can turn your life upside down toward living creatively to the fullest

Your Felt Sense or body sense is a vage kinaesthetic body feeling inside, giving information of how it is like to live a situation

The body sense is owned by your body to hundred percent. It is stronger by nature than set up intentions, self-doubts or the Inner Critic

Your body wants you to live, that's what your body is made for. To make you live, your body sense is serving you. The body sense is supporting all parts of you to make you grow ... even when you feel stuck and suffer from self-doubts

For to make you grow, your body is highly creative in getting negative conversations inside silenced down. In fact your body is supportive in transforming your negative conversations first and for the most. For that your body allows you to receive ongoing information coming freshly  from the Felt Sense

The creative force of the body sense and your inner artist (the natural force of creativity) are one. The voice of your inner artist can express in many artistic voices. It's perhaps the most vulnerable part of you and the part that speaks your most authentic evolutionary language

To pursue what is the most of your creative self, you need the strongest kind of support possible. The strongest support is support from inside-out and outside-in support. The inside-out support occurs when your inner artist is uplifted by Felt Sense-based arts

Art-making from the Felt Sense emerges from the body and the body's being-and-becoming. Practicing Felt Sense-based arts always leads to a next being-and-becoming (both in the body and in your artwork). This next always feels fresh

Felt Sense-based arts gets you unstuck. It is a moving forward, a pointing to a More of what activates your inner artist to get stronger and unstoppable

When you listen to your Felt Sense as you engage with the arts, you land at a place that feels like spark land. You will find powerful, personal art expression and creative highlights

The more you create along the path of Felt Sense-based arts, the more you will notice your inner voices being transformed. They change from doubts to creative advisors you will not want to miss on your journey towards the landscapes of spark-land

Artistic talent or experience in making art has nothing to do with coming to a place that feels like creative spark-land

What is needed to get there is to know about creativity, to follow the three basic principles of art making (external support), and to process your art from the Felt Sense (internal support). Thus, you are supported by psychological information and art information, and you are supported by the experience of art making itself. Both internal and external support make your art bolder and more you

The three basic art principles (design, value and color) are doable for anyone, regardless of prior artistic knowledge (or lack thereof). Working through them keeps your inner artist awake. This can be important at times, as taking artistic risks can make you feel vulnerable and in need of support. As a side effect, you will create artwork you love

We inform you how creativity works from a Focusing perspective and teach you the three main principles of art making (design, value and color). We guide you through the steps of artistically processing these principles into the land of your Focusing Joy (outside-in support direction)

Focusing joy is different for each of us, so there is nor right or wrong in where you land

Exploring the arts that you love will transcend the average. It will transform your creative spark into radiance: You do art that is and becomes the most of you
