Exhilarating things happen at NOVIZKI Marathons….

The marathon is an opportunity to profoundly experience the NOVIZKI Method in a short number of meetings.

Throughout each one of the marathon days, participants will acquire new tools that kindle self-understanding and provide an eye-opening insight into one’s own life.

The NOVIZKI marathon calls upon a combination of first-hand art-making, and introspection, taking participants through a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. These guide participants towards the unearthing of new and powerful inner resources that can then be implemented in daily life. We teach NOVIZKI techniques that can change behavior patterns, assisting people to reach new heights in life.

Through the lens of the unique NOVIZKI method, participants can see things from a new perspective after a just few meetings. The tools taught at the NOVIZKI marathon are intuitive, simple, and easily accessible to all participants. We believe they have simply been forgotten about, or hidden underneath the many layers of modern life’s constraints. Through these tools we reconnect our practitioners with their strengths and values, helping them overcome those negative thoughts that hold us back in life.

Previously, such curriculum could only be accessed through art-based psychotherapy training at a year-long NOVIZKI Art Coaching Program, or as a patient to a NOVIZKI therapist. The marathon provides us with an intimate group setting, ideal for delving into this enthralling school of thought, and promoting self-discovery and empowerment.

The ‘marathon’ format provides participants with an opportunity to experience the NOVIZKI method in first person, in a short but in-depth personal journey. Participants are encouraged to devote themselves to the change they aspire to make in their lives.

Over the years, we’ve learnt that NOVIZKI group meetings change the way people relate to the world. Participants undergo transformations that improve their well-being and build better relationships with their partners, parents, friends, family, and even in their careers and communities.

Cognition and emotion are interdependent to one another, crossing paths at our creativity. Throughout the marathon, we will feel the different art materials, create with them, and observe ourselves through our own creations.

The NOVIZKI method doesn’t require drawing ability or any other artistic skill. This is because creativity is a human quality that exists in all of us. Our work throughout the marathon will be observing artwork from a new vantage point, discovering new things about ourselves.

During the marathon, we learn how to actively listen to ourselves and others, demystifying many parts of daily life that previously went unnoticed. Similar to the way soundwaves are invisible, yet we know they exist – The marathon teaches us to connect with the less-conscious parts of minds, so that we can overcome the obstacles that stand in between us and our dreams.

Once practiced, this skill inevitably leads NOVIZKI practitioners to discovering new meaning in life, and becoming sources of inspiration to themselves and their surroundings.

Powered by art and creativity, the NOVIZKI method opens new doors in life, encouraging participants to step into new realms they never knew existed.

The NOVIZKI method identifies our uniqueness, our creativity and our inner power and resources. Once this solidifies, all human beings can achieve anything they wish for in life.

From this position wea can firstly recognize our hopes and aspirations, then cultivate the change required to achieve anything we set our mind to.

During the NOVIZKI marathon, we create a new world we’d like to exist in, using visual art materials and our pure imagination. Participants are able to reach new understandings about themselves and generate lasting change that leads to an amazing life.

The NOVIZKI marathon is YOUR marathon. By reading these words, you acknowledge your own desire to work towards positive change in your life. See this as a contract with yourself, to rediscover your uniqueness, creativity and resources.

The process is a challenging one, and occasionally cynicism and doubt surface. We work towards overcoming these creativity-killers, inspiring participants to fully believe in their idea – and invite change into their life.

Firstly, we will learn how to look at ourselves from a new perspective. This surfaces new understandings about our lives that were previously concealed. Once we better understand the essence of our inner selves and the different aspects of our lives, we utilize these understandings throughout the Marathon.

Secondly, we identify the obstacles that are holding us back from achieving our dreams, and we learn how to utilize our inner resources from an empathetic standpoint. We can then embrace positive memories and rely on our imagination to empower us to work towards our aspired future selves.

During the third step, we venture out into the world observing the change we’ve made in ourselves. This deepens our internal locus of control – reassuring the power we possess over our own lives, encouraging us to generate meaning in our own life and our environment.
