Awakening Creativity and Spiritual Intelligence

The evolving nature of human consciousness compels us to ask what education is for in the 21st century. This narrative study examines how the groundbreaking work of several holistic educators catalyses personal transformation and restores authenticity and wonder to learning. These educators have developed new, insightful practices rooted in perennial philosophy and humanistic psychology that awaken creativity as spiritual intelligence--a cognition that synergises concrete intelligence (physical, emotional, logical) with higher order intelligence (imagination, intuition,vision). Anyone interested in modern education will appreciate learning about soulful practices that encourage learners to discover and reclaim personal creativity and insight, self-awareness and love as integral aspects of learning and living.
