Synopsis

The Creative Connection is a practical, spirited book, lavishly illustrated with colour plates of artwork and action photographs. First published in the USA in 1993 by Science and Behavior Books, we are proud to be publishing this ground-breaking book in the UK. It describes the Creative Connection® process developed by Natalie Rogers, which interweaves movement, sound, art, writing and guided imagery, tapping into the deep wellspring of creativity within each of us. Natalie says, 'Vital to the creative process is an environment of psychological safety and freedom'. This reflects her deep belief in the philosophy of her father, Carl Rogers, which emphasises empathy, openness, honesty and congruence.
