Creativity and the Future of the World with Flora Bowley

This season our theme has been creativity.  We tend to think
of creativity as art, music, dance and often designate being
creative as an afterthought - something we allow ourselves to
indulge in after we’ve done our real work.


And yet, in the interviews we’ve conducted this season, we’ve
heard over and over again that some of the world’s most
innovative thought-leaders and scientists have a creative
practice of some kind that supports them in being creative in
their field.


My guest today is Flora Bowley.  Flora is
an artist, retreat facilitator, creative catalyst, and author of
five books: The Art of Aliveness, Brave
Intuitive Painting, Creative
Revolution, Fresh Paint, and
Earth is Holding You. Her colorful and layered
paintings are also used to design calendars, cards, planners,
journals, fabric, and unique product lines sold around the world.


Flora encourages us to look at the art of our life, to explore
how we can use creativity to unlock and unbind ourselves from old
ways of being and thinking.  I hope that this interview will
have you contemplating the role that creativity plays in your
daily practice.  I hope that you’ll explore new ways to
break free from the trap of hard metrics that puts you in boxes
instead of inviting you to create your own world. 


Without creativity, science is just repetition.  Propagating
the same ideas over and over again.  Limiting the questions
we ask and closing us off to the possibility of finding the
elegant solutions to our challenges. 


Without art, we can’t tap into our creativity.  If art
changes everything, the very first thing it changes is our
fundamental relationship with ourselves and our ability to move
from inspiration to fulfillment, from idea to innovative
solution. 


Join me for this powerful conversation as we explore the role of
creativity in transforming the world.


Flora Bowley (pronounced bowl-lee)
is an artist, author, and gentle guide whose creative process and
soulful approach to living have touched thousands of

Aliveness, Flora explores the vast ways in which the
principles of creativity can serve as fuel for a more alive and
awakened way of living in the world – no paintbrushes required.
