Uncover your natural artist within with these simple shifts.  Th e most incredible artists have a passion for making their art. They enjoy the process and simply allow something to emerge from their inner creative nature. We all have passion available to us, but many aren’t connected to it at all. By simply making our inner life a priority and allowing enough attention to discover and develop it, we can connect with our creative energy more deeply than ever before.  Be aware. Everything you do is already creating. Even when you drive along the freeway. Start with realizing you already are an artist and allow everything you do to be a part of your art form. Create your life in your ideal ways. Keep your eyes open and pay attention to the mysteries and miracles before you every day. It is a great opportunity that you have to be aware of this and consciously create each action as a deliberate work of art.  Enjoy the dance of it all. When you dri...

My notes, adapted from Gregg Braden's book Walking Between the Worlds, one of my most life-altering reads from my all-time favorite author. The Three Universal Fears Your charge of universal fears, though often unconscious, is your promise that you will create patterns of relationships showing you these fears. With few exceptions, our experiences of pain, suffering, illness, disease, and emotional trauma have their roots in these core universal fears. These are the three basic underlying fears many of us experience: 1. Abandonment and Separation We feel left or abandoned by our creator without explanation or reason. We feel alone . (Ex: "our father who art in heaven" vs. "our father who is everywhere"). Expressed as : relationships where you are devastated when they fail, always being the one who gets "left" in the relationship, and/or being the first to leave a good relationship so that you are not hurt. 2. Self Worth We are not ...

Giving to others that which you want is the quickest way to getting it for yourself.  This is the creme of the crop lesson of the Law of Attraction.  And let it be known that I am ALL about service and giving.  Not just to receive, but to truly give.  It's one of the highest forms of Love. However, the purpose of this post is to get you stop and think for a moment about one particular angle....   What do you do right now in your DAILY life that moves you towards your goals?    What are you doing every day that is exciting to you, motivating you to strive forward?   Are you doing it enough? Making sure we have a strong inflow of motivation is a great gift for ourselves.   What is coming into your stream of consciousness day in and day out?  Does it encourage more growth or fear? Most likely you can use a tune-up on your intake .   Some examples I've found helpful are:  listening to audio recordings and watc...

Life is challenging. At times it seems like a test - or perhaps a final exam. It can feel like a culmination of your previous lessons where everything is on the line and every move you make is extremely important. At these pivotal points - and sometimes in our regular daily active life - it can seem impossible to make it. Or perhaps not worth the trouble. But these challenges are the exact things that we need to grow. As we master our smaller lessons, they get bigger and may seem impossible at times. It's important to trust, especially when everything is on the line. Notice it always works out somehow. Check your faith and your "talk" or ideals. While you're at it, step more fully into it. "Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see". ~ Hebrews 11:1 Although you can't always see how everything can work out, you often can see the next step to take. There may be several options and it m...

I have a lot I want to do, yet I want to enjoy it all. I don't want too much rushing or working too hard that I’m exhausted. I’ve learned the hard way that I love balance and free time – and it is very good for me. When life has changes such as school starting or internal shifts in direction, I start over with fresh a clean slate and creatively develop a new intuitive strategy. One that allows me the lifestyle that’s important and has ultimate freedom within it. So this week is one of those times when it rises naturally again for me with school in session and client scheduling to figure out. I am ready to create a new template of time. I find life most refreshing when I am aware of my boundaries from a higher perspective with clarity in direction and then consciously explore and create my preferences in the details. It’s something I do incessantly out of curiosity. My little game with myself. Sometimes I get carried away figuring out what I like ...

Curiosity is one of my favorite characteristics. Someone who is genuinely inquisitive and open to learning more and more is invigorating and exciting to be around. I love information and learning. However, I’ve found that many of us have a tendency to over-consume information that isn’t particularly valuable to us. This habit of taking in excess information dilutes attention and delays progress. Many haven’t even considered there could be such a thing as too much information. Below are some things to ponder on and open to in your exploration of yourself and your lifestyle. Choose your sources wisely. Be conscious of your intention with each information source you decide to look into. Many news teams prioritize banking on advertising with techniques such as focusing on fearful topics to keep viewers glued. Our thinking and mental dialog – also known as our programming or internal script – creates our perspective on life, heavily weighing on each experience we...

Summertime reminds me of beach days, timelessness, family, friends, and fun. It’s always been my favorite time of year. What I treasure most about it is the essence of it. Beyond the details of plans, to do’s, and work, remains the grand feeling of this season. What stands out most are the long days, afternoon walks, and family gatherings. Now that I’m older it’s easy to get caught up in “shoulds”. I could busy myself with them for a lifetime or more. I can think of plenty of tasks that will help me farther my goals, bring in some dough, or get things off my plate. And it feels wonderful to accomplish them. However, looking in the eyes of my beautiful children, I’m reminded of what truly matters most. A simple family game or a walk under the stars – the time shared together is what these young hearts hold dearest. And thank God for their welcome reminders. Tuning into their natural state, I can feel so much wisdom: Slow down from time to time Enjoy those aro...

Where do you spend most of your day? Chances are this may include your desk, car, or kitchen. Most of us have some space that we regularly spend a good portion of our day at. How do you feel about these places you frequent? Take this opportunity to revive your hang outs with a fresh look and readiness for ultimate use. Create the following two areas in your home and/or work space: Creative Center Start with your work center or the spot that you do most of your daily work in. Set up this space for readiness, creation, and making it happen. Have all of the tools that you need and use often easily within your reach. Clear things out of the way that you don’t use so often. Set up your priority work daily and set aside any excess to allow free space while doing your thing. Have a favorite drink within reach and play some tunes while you work to make it a little more fun. Make sure to take breaks from your work area every so often to recharge your energy...
