Mick Kubiak is a psychotherapist, writer, and host of the Designed To Be Awake podcast. With poetic insight and unflinching honesty, Mick explores the subject of awakening to who we truly are—the Self that lives eternally at the heart of each of our lives, beyond the reach of our limited egos. She explores what it looks like, on a practical level, to wake up, surrender to what is, and live with full presence. Her forthcoming book, Inner Housekeeping, is a meditation guide for beginners that focuses on emotional hygiene and creating inner space. Each week on her podcast, she weaves together psychology, spirituality, and lived experience, offering reflections that bring the seemingly heady experience of enlightenment down to earth.

Essentials of Co-Creative Partnership: Connection to Nature Unlocks Creativity
Co-creative partnership is just as the words indicate; being an equal partner where the members create together to bring about balanced manifestation.
This conscious act of partnering with Nature brings about a union of form and spirit where all life can thrive. Co-creative partnership is not a technique but a way of life that we all carry within us.
Embedded in our cells is the memory of a time when we lived close to Earth.
During the time before we left Nature we wouldn’t dream of doing harm to that which is the source of our sustenance. But a deep amnesia has taken over and we have forgotten how to live in co-creative partnership with Earth and all her beings.
The separation from Nature that this amnesia has created is resulting in some very big challenging, changing times.
It is imperative that we begin to wake-up and remember that we are actually kin to Nature and together we can create a world where all of life thrives. During this slide presentation we will continue our journey of remembrance as I shine light on some of the components that make for a dynamic partnership with Nature.
Join me in discovering the Essentials of Co-Creative Partnership and start rebuilding your connection to Nature.
