Conscious Creativity
Voicing the Wisdom Within
A sense of the sacred emerges through conscious intentional creativity, as a voice emerges in times of great emotion and inspiration. All around us, people explore their creative embodiment through movement, voice, and language. It is our imagination, our spirit, matching the dancer’s, singer’s, and poet’s dream. We move because they move.
We are left with wonder for the richness of self expression, the creative choices that are available, and endless possibilities as the exploration of life, and healing continue…
Creativity As Rebellion
Daily acts of creativity are tiny rebellions, advocating for the rights of ostranenie, to see deeply with new eyes what is random and ordinary, as strange and extraordinary. Here’s a quick and dirty list, to help reclaim your inner creative.
- Cultivate Curiosity. Ask questions, allowing for the unknown, and possible failure.
- Cultivate being in the here and now. Trust in the process, immersing in the present moment.
- Cultivate Mindfulness. Notice the space between the thoughts where there is stillness and quiet, connecting to yourself, and all that is.
- Cultivate Sensuality. Use all of your senses, taking yourself out into nature, or somewhere unfamiliar.
- Cultivate Simplicity. Embrace the lure of becoming, following your energy, intuition, and the Creative Force.
Creativity As A Bridge
The endowment of creativity, the omnipotent divine universal force, as it flows through and surrounds us, is a state of wonder, and reverence. It’s the longing to connect, diving past the inner critic, and deeper into the well where {mind, body, and spirit} reside as one. The fruition of creativity bridges the great divide between self, and other.
By following what you love, what you find beautiful, and what you fear, you begin to individuate. There’s a perceptible shift of connecting creativity, play, and imagination to the realms of spirituality.
And, we are the conduits.
be in balance
intentionally and spontaneously
bringing a thing into being:
an unexpected moment
a new belief
or a piece of art
when you seek beauty, it will find you
