Storytelling and Creativity: Why They Matter
What if time was not a straight march forward? Could we disrupt our own histories, Back to the Future-style? Or does imagination have its own power for paradox?
Our brains are wired for narrative. So can stories inspire deeper learning for life?
Stories are clues to how we experience life. Teens, especially, give stories the power to shape and reshape their identities. They tap into a deep universal need for understanding and meaning.
Daydreams are defined as a series of pleasant thoughts that distract one's attention from the present. The practice of daydreaming offers many benefits: de-stressing, refreshing, clearing out the cobwebs, inspiring new ideas, and sparking creativity, just to name a few.
We spend 50 percent of our life daydreaming. And now, there’s evidence that it’s not just a waste of time.
At EOY Media, we provide a toolkit to examine
the past to reach for our more perfect future.
