Living a creative, spontaneous life can mean a lot of things to different folks.  I recently was introduced to the book Improv Wisdom: Don't Prepare, Just Show Up.  It has a wonderful way of putting in words how so much of my life has been lived.

She has 13 maxims she outlines in her guide to living a creative life.

1. Say Yes
2. Don't Prepare
3. Just Show Up
4. Start Anywhere
5. Be Average
6. Pay Attention
7. Face the Facts
8. Stay on Course
9. Wake Up to the Gifts
10. Make Mistakes, Please
11. Act Now
12. Take Care of Each Other
13. Enjoy the Ride

These are great ways to live a beautiful, spontaneous, heart centered life.

Why not choose one to do today!

For our next session, bring your creative project and heart felt intentions.   Monday April 26th, 7PM CST.  OR just show up with an open heart and curious mind. 

This is considered by some to be the most powerful full moon of the year.  Let's harness the energy and charge up our creative projects together.

In creating we are truly using our imagination to bring something into existence.  This sounds a lot like the process of Manifestation spoken of by so many spiritual teachers.

I like watching these videos, and so I will share before we meet again.

I have been playing particularly with the idea of the power of words.  

I give you a challenge on your creative journey this week to write a poem, or some sort of affirmations using the words of your future, desired outcome.

We had fun at our New Moon session doing just that, and I created another song bringing together the image of love engaged community.

Now it is your turn to do the same for your desire.  Don't be afraid to share it with others.

Enjoy!

I have looked into my hearts desire and seen
A picture of what the world could be
And so I choose to let go of doubt and fear
and welcome all those who share the dream, I know they're here.

And I believe my community is near,
to share the song my heart longs to hear.
and I believe and so I will see
All the goodness in the people right in front of me.

People are good and here to help
they share their gifts and they share the wealth 
of their spirit as their soul longs to fly free.


People are Good and Here to Help

APRIL CREATIVITY CHALLENGE!!!
​
 We invite you to join in a fun challenge to bring more joy into your life.

To begin, just pick one or more creative activities to do each day for the month of April.  Maybe try writing a poem, or song, or draw one picture a day.  They don't have to be good.

Just do one (or more) creative activity each day for the next thirty days.

I personally started this challenge at the beginning of 2021 and decided to write one poem, draw one picture, and write one song each day.  It was a big surprise to me that what I continued was not the drawing, or poetry (actually I am not a poet at all) but the songwriting stuck.

Perhaps you will try with multiple options, and then end off with one, or maybe you will continue to switch around.  The creative activities do not have to be elaborate, but do keep a journal of some sort so you can look at what is emerging from your creative subconscious. If you would like to participate as a group, register for the course here.

Creativity is more than just fun, it is a way to tap into that deep inner creator.  How do I create what I want in the world?

I recently have been focusing my creative energies on this concept. I listened to a book by Neville Goddard (search his stuff on youtube) on the power of thoughts.  I have seen this tendency for thoughts to materialize in the world, so why not make my thoughts be more loving, kind and filled with abundance.

Here is the first song inspired by this idea.

The Speech of Fulfilled Desire

What you desire to see without
You must learn to see within
Before it comes to pass
You must channel your inner vision

What is your aim
Does it match your inner conversation
tell me who do you want to be in this world
what do you want to see in this world

Every fact of your life
Is your thoughts matched with your desires
So start to think and see
What you truly want to be

What is your aim
Does it match your inner conversation
tell me who do you want to be in this world
what do you want to see in this world
