Certificate in Art of Health

What is the Certificate in Art of Health?

How do we find, live and maintain a
healthy and artistic way of life?

How can we educate, encourage & support
the process in others?

This programme will take up these questions, explore and integrate these ideas for those who are:

  • Working or intend to work, in any area of health, therapy, healing or medicine.
  • Interested in working with Art as a means of development.
  • Wanting to explore a new direction in your artistic career.
  • Involved in the field of teaching, early childhood or adult education

Do you want to:

  • Explore and understand a deepening connection to the needs & meaning of the human being.
  • Develop an understanding of yourself in the world through the realm of sense experience.
  • Experience an enlivening of your own learning and artistic abilities.
  • Explore & experience colour, movement, form & metamorphosis.

This is an art-based foundation course in holistic health, which can be recognised as professional development within employment in educational, therapy and health settings.
This programme offers a lively and exciting extension to all these fields of work. Previous knowledge or ability in Art is not a pre-requisite.
This programme is approved by the NZQA and the Ministry of Education. New Zealand students are able to apply for Students Loans.

Seminar topics include, "Awakening Consciousness"

 

“ As we look at the world of the twentieth century and the demands that life makes upon us,
it is little wonder that our senses are assaulted and brought into disharmony. 
Is there anything that can be done to bring a compensating healing influence into our battered sensory organisation? 
Yes, there is;
there is art. 
More than anything else, art heals our senses and keeps them healthy.”

– Joan Salter
