Who it is for

This live session is for you if

  • You have tried free videosYou draw along with algorithms from YouTube and would like to understand whether you are doing it right and why it works.

  • You want to learn the method properlyYou would like to understand NeuroGraphica® step by step with a certified instructor, so you feel confident drawing on your own.

  • You see your patterns and still repeat themYou already understand a lot about yourself, and some familiar reactions and choices keep coming back in your work, your relationships or your life in a new country.

  • You want a tool that is always with youA marker and a sheet of paper are all you need to work with a question at the moment it comes up.

Why learn the method

Why learn NeuroGraphica® if there are so many free videos?

Every line you draw sends a signal from your hand to your brain, and when the steps follow each other in the right order, the way you see your question slowly begins to change.

Drawing along with a random video can be pleasant, and still you often don’t know which step does what or why one drawing feels so much lighter than another. The Basic User Course gives you that understanding, a bit like a manual for your own mind.

Who hosts the live session

Hi, I’m Natalya

Psychologist and NeuroGraphica® instructor

I live in Veghel and have given NeuroGraphica® workshops all over the Netherlands, as well as sessions for teams at Prodrive, Feminique and Moaie. Before that I taught art therapy online.

I also teach Ashtanga yoga at Take Practice, and in both practices I see that change comes more easily when the hands and the body take part in it. I keep the pace slow and the atmosphere warm, so everyone has the space to find their own answer.

Questions

Good to know

What if I can’t draw at all?

You don’t need any drawing experience, because NeuroGraphica® uses simple lines, circles and colour spots. If you can hold a marker, you can do it, and on the course we train the hand from the very beginning.

Is it based on science or is it esoteric?

The method was developed by psychologist Pavel Piskarev at the Institute of Psychology of Creativity and brings together neuroscience, Gestalt psychology and art. In the live session I explain what happens while you draw, so you can feel and judge it for yourself.

Where does it take place?

The session is online, and you receive the link to join after you register.

What time is it where I live?

The session starts at 15:00 Amsterdam time (CEST) on Saturday 17 October.
