Change yourself, change the world
The Practice of Creative Mind
Developed by Dr. Stephen Gilligan
Creative Mind sees life as a creative evolution of consciousness through multiple levels: Spirit, Nature, and three levels of Mind (Collective, Individual, and Integral).

It sees core identity as a "community of mind" that connects all parts of a system: light/shadow, self/other, family/cultural/gender members of a community, etc.

The interconnectedness of these different levels and parts is the distinguishing characteristic of a creative system, and their disconnectedness is the basis of all persistent suffering and symptoms.

Creative Mind teaches that realities (both positive and negative) are constructed and, most importantly, teaches a set of methods for creating sustainable positive realities.

Creative Mind strives to connect people and communities to the "ever present origin" of creative consciousness, so that a new sense of self and community can develop.

Creative Mind is the newest generation of the work that Dr. Gilligan has been developing and practicing for over 40 years.

And now, both for personal transformation and professional development, we are pleased to announce the first Coach Certification Course in CM.

This is a 1-year online training comprised of 9 modules: a 1-day introduction and eight 3-day programs. These 3-day programs can also be studied individually.

Graduates of this program will be certified as Creative Mind Coaches and become part of the CM professional community.

Come join us!
We stand on a great threshold, where every part of our lives is challenging us to change: the environment, our governments, our relations with each other, our connection to our core self and our many contradictory parts.

It seems that the very fabric of our consciousness needs to transform.

At such intense transitional points, the past no longer works and the future is not yet clear.

At times like this, we need a creative mind.
