Boost your Right Brain Hemisphere Powers with Neuroart/Visual NVC Foundations
Transform your patterns and challenges - visual art way
WHY this course?
Our right hemispheres hold intensity of big emotions, such as delight and grief, as well as power our creativity and relationality. Yet, we can harness their power and comfortably live in our right hemispheres only to the degree this part of the brain had the conditions to get structured in our childhoods. It would happen if someone warm, accepting and curious stayed with us during those emotional storms when we were little. And then in later life, we are able to hold fireworks of delight and abysses of grief, as well as enormity of some life events only to the degree it was structured. An unstructured right hemisphere is a place of nightmares to be in, and untempered by left hemisphere, an active unstructured right one is a picture of despair and depression.
Are there situations where you ever shift out of relationality of being, out of seeing a big picture and out of having a cornucopia of creative possibilities at your fingertips (all of them being the right hemisphere) to “fixing”, explaining, educating, dismissing, “to-do lists” and not noticing of left hemisphere? Would you like to have stability and support - for yourself and your clients - of a more structured right hemisphere, and all that it has to offer?
We believe that the structured right brain hemisphere is one of the keys to living our potential to the full and to the resilience no matter what rollercoaster of life we are on.
We believe that creating art shapes our brain and changes the state of our nervous system. We believe that this practice awakens and restructures our right brain hemispheres*. We offer you this introductory level course so that you can try it out for yourself and have these resources at your fingertips too.

Can I join if I absolutely can't draw?
Yes! We believe that with this step-by-step method, as long as you can hold a pen, breathe and watch a 5-10 minute video and follow instructions in it, you would be able to use this approach. Here is some work of the students who did the equivalent of this Foundation-level course facilitated by Olga.

If you are still unsure, with 10-days money back guarantee, you have everything to gain (or, at least, foundation level skills at Neuroart drawing) and nothing to lose.
What art materials do I need?
- a fineliner (a black ballpoint pen will do at a pinch),
- a piece of paper (printer paper will do) and
- some pencils, crayons, markers or felt tips (whatever you have at home will do!).
If you want to get more things or are really into your art materials, we share various tips on art materials as one of the videos in the course. The sky is your limit!
