Curriculum Overview

Metacognitive Consciousness Through Intentional Creativity®  

MOTHERBOARD : Metacognitive Consciousness : A Curriculum for Curating Consciousness through identifying, catalyzing and organizing your ‘motherboard.’ Motherboard in this case refers to the set of conditions, beliefs, concepts, values that inform your identity and how you live in the world. Our hope for you, is liberation. Our teaching templates are designed to have you access, articulate and communicate YOUR content.

We will work together through virtual mediums inluding circles, masterminds, sharing our work and coaching each other. And. You will be invited to work on one big painting during the entire journey as a blessing for you, and a way of truly experiencing the power of Intentional Creativity. 

Catalyst by Shiloh Sophia. This painting came through after a body work session with Uma Mulnick, who weaves Intentional Creativity into her healing arts practice. 

We are about to explore the curriculum below, the heart of the philosophy. Here is the awesome part though, you will be APPLYING THIS CURRICULUM into self expression based real FORMS like the following...

Our creative process will guide you to

  • Create and keep a Visual Journal  
  • Design a Lexicon of Visual Language Deck  
  • Create graphics for sharing your knowledge 
  • Create templates to use over and over
  • Develop your own icons/images for teaching
  • Learn to tell story in image on paper with pen 
  • Create authentic Social Media Graphics, through drawing and digital  
  • Create graphic posters for gifts, free gifts, or for pay  
  • Storytelling in image to communicate 
  • Practice coaching with image in our group in real time
  • Learn metacognitive drawing practices to use over and over
  • Discover how to intuitively 'source' information from within 
  • Paint one big ole' painting of your 'Motherboard' (no experience needed, and not required for Certification)  

For the So many trainings are rooted in concept, ideas, and structures without the actual practice part. There is practice with client work, and in group, but really truly to EXPERIENCE it for yourself in form. By form, we literally mean, you make something in form/matter with your hands, mind and heart. This is one of the most powerful ways to learn and teach what you know.

In this video I share a little bit about the ideas behind the work and why I love it so much as a tool for waking up! ~ Shiloh Sophia


OVERVIEW of the MODULES: 

EMBODIED IMAGINATION IN ACTION

These modules will be delivered in experiential multimedia. This is a more linear overview of what we will be exploring and the content we will be diving into. You will experience it yourself, then learn how to bring the experience to your clients. Mostly, the work takes place within yourself, and by connecting your inner and outer worlds through drawing, writing, thinking, being, practicing, conversation, and trying on the concepts. Many of these overlap and don’t respond well to the linear flow because they are intersecting more than a hierarchy, yet this allows our left brains to be satisfied.  

This will be achieved through visual journaling, creative process, video teachings, and dialogue. They will be presented in a step-by-step path, leaving room for the great mystery! ALL RESULTS will be achieved through creative action and your awareness of that action as it is happening in real time via your observer.  

While we will be working directly with your story, who you have been being, we will only be visiting this story relative to where you are going. We won’t be digging up all the old baggage and re-organizing the contents one more time. Rather we will only be looking at those features of the story that prevent you from inhabiting your chosen desires. Chances are you have already done a lot of this work - but have you done it in IMAGE, WORD and COLOR? Can you SEE your results, point to them, revisit them again and again, or is it just an awareness of having done the work? Awareness is awesome, and our curriculum truly dives into that as our first module. But...have you been creative with your process of becoming, in form? Meaning you ‘made something with your hands?’ THIS MEANS YOU EMBODY IT IN REAL TIME, PHYSICALLY and ENERGETICALLY so it is happening on a lot more levels than the mental!  

Each aspect of the module will be something YOU can use with YOUR clients once you have gone through the process. Each process employs IMAGE, WORD, COLOR, and INQUIRY to arrive at the source code available to you at any given time. Making knowledge visual is actually very natural to us, but isn’t something we are taught. We are taught to watch it, in every area of our life from what we buy, to what we learn. Where in your life is image and language not happening? It is truly EVERYWHERE that something is communicated in form, except in the natural world, and our physical bodies.  

The modules are experienced through conversation in our calls and masterminds, through your visual journaling process, you working on these with your clients AND through the creative process using paint. Your creative process is WHAT will equip you to know and embody this work. Some of them are mental and mindful, others including drawing and meditating, others have dares for you to try out in your life. This creates a rich experiential tapestry for you to embody the material.  

This is an invitation to become conscious. Intentional Creativity will be our vehicle. We together will make YOUR knowledge visual, alchemizing it into VISUAL wisdom. This is embodied imagination in action.

― Daniel H. Pink, A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future

MOTHERBOARD PAINTING: We will be working on a large painting as part of our process. My idea is that this painting is the backdrop behind your desk or work area - a cosmic mandala that is a place you work out your ideas of your Motherboard. Where you compost and process...  

You don't need any painting skills and this will be a wild ride into the unknown. We will be taking the curriculum concepts and adding them into the the painting. YOU WILL BRING YOUR MESSAGE, YOUR VISUAL KNOWLEDGE into COLOR, SHAPE, TEXTURE and STORY!

Imagine being able to share this level of consciousness awakening with your clients and beloveds!  

Note: This overview is subject to adjustment as we journey. If you have studied with us in previous courses, you will notice recurring themes. With this training hopes to facilitate is how you will share these technologies directly with your clients. This is a distillation of the philosophy that animates the transformative power inherent within Intentional Creativity.  

As a coach/healer/teacher my work has changed because I now have additional tools that combine creativity with the forms of healing I have done for years (a chiropractor for 35+ years). I see an increase of depth that transpires in the "whole body healing" that can take place. I also have brief experiential offerings that can give the immediacy that is needed in the moment until a longer and more depth process can take place. I have married the healing arts in ways I never considered before and am awed by the depth it goes. SO very grateful for the inclusion of Intentional Creativity in my personal and professional life! ~ Uma Mulnick

The Experience we hope to bring you will be ecstatic, awakening, fun and so insightful. 

Here are a few of the results and experiences we hope to bring: 

Insight: You will gain greater, deeper, wider, quicker access to your intuitive capacity. This will support you in supporting those you serve to give them powerful outcomes.

Savvy: You will learn to communicate abstract ideas and bring them into form.  

Freedom: You will discover new ways of working to bring to your clients so they can do their own work.  

Transformation: You will practice using technology in a sacred way, changing the experience of using a computer to communicate messages and work with illustration.  

Inspiration: You will dive into your own ‘source’ and gain access to your information. You will be equipped with the emergent technology of Intentional Creativity  

Skill: You will learn some basics of graphic recording used in the industry to develop your own visual language.  

Resources: You will create a lexicon of symbols and codes you can use to demonstrate your ideas.  

De-stress: You will experience the power of Metacognitive Drawing and how it can calm your system and have your client move into a more relaxed state.  

Mysterious: Learn the subtle yet potent art of virtual ritual  

Imagination: You will know how to access your own visual wisdom in fantastical ways  

Clarity: You will develop a practice in image and language that you will always be able to use, in any situation, to create clearer communication.  

Smarty-pants: You will gain visual skills for seeing, thinking and knowing that are so simple, you will be surprised you didn’t use them before.  

Smarty-paints: You will learn basic painting process for use with clients.  

Kaboom-ness: You will be able to facilitate breakthroughs for your clients like never before, because they will be creating their own breakthrough, instead of you having to do it for them.  

Play: Together, we will have a fun time! Because it is impossible not to! We will be working with the idea of the ‘muse’  

Those you will work with will be able to experience your uplevelling of capacity to offer life changing experiences.  

In our work we are using the metaphor of the ‘motherboard’ to indicate the hidden ‘operations’ of human beings. The modules give us access to those ‘source codes’.  

Just like we don’t see our consciousness, we don’t see how we are operating. This is what we come in with, as in, family, origins, ancestry etc. but then there are beliefs, traditions, values, overlayed and programmed into us by others.  

My Intentional Creativity journey has made me so aware of the voice of the inner critic and the much more invitational voice of my muse. It has provided me with a more wholistic container to offering the various components of my service in a more grounded, assured way. Intentional creativity offers insight into healing personally and collectively which our planet needs at this juncture in time. ~ Margie O’Connor

Let’s wake up, then the work we do will come from consciousness and an expanded field.  

We have some preliminary work you can do between now and the training to get started. Come Apply now if you feel the call!

As an artist, I found the method of expressing my feelings and thoughts in a way that is beautiful and inspiring. As a coach I gave my wounded clients a way to see their story on a canvas and chose to paint it differently. As a grandma of 3 amazing star children I learned a way of supporting their truth and creativity. As a wife, I do not need to solicit attention. My husband wants to know what my work is about and asks me to explain things. As a daughter, I had an amazing Mother’s Day session with my mom who was able to forget her pain and move her hands on a canvas with pleasure. And as a teacher, I am forever grateful to Shiloh Sophia and the Intentional Creativity community for expanding my ability to see, hear, and to be in partnership with the Universe. ~ Svetlana Pritzker

“...a lot about what triggers a creative mode as opposed to an uncreative mode is situational. The creative mode is called for in contexts that are unclear, vague and open-ended. The opposite is true of the uncreative mode. And so the uncreative mode involves walking firmly along the "path of least resistance" through the black-and-white zone of the expected, the obvious, the accurate or the efficient. Whereas the creative mode involves turning away from the path of least resistance and venturing into the briars so to speak in an effort to forge a new path through the gray zone of the unexpected, the vague, the misleading or the unknown.”
