Conscious Creating

Happy JULY All!

From an early age, we are encouraged to utilize our imagination in play and decision-making. We are introduced to concepts such as:

* Colors: their names and the objects they most accurately describe (e.g., vegetables, fruits, animals, grass, trees).

* The various shapes that exist.

* The creative processes we employ through words, writing, speaking, singing, and other forms of expression.

* Creative play with toys like blocks, plastic figurines, dolls, tea sets, Lincoln logs, Legos etc. painting and coloring as well as  outdoor play.

* Creative ways we move, crawl, walk, stand, skip, talk, sing, dance

* Creative choices in how we feel, express our emotions, or refrain from doing so, and the ability to question our and others’ beliefs.

Ultimately, we are spiritual beings engaged in a creative process of discovery in human form, designing our lives.

As we grow, we are influenced by various factors, including guidance, coercion, command, and resonance with the beliefs and expectations of our parents, authority figures, peers, community members, government, and others.

Some individuals believe that our lives are reflections of our personal designs, shaped by choices made in past life agreements, this lifetime, or inherited through our DNA and ancestral lineage. While some choices are conscious, others may not be. Through practices of awareness and mindfulness, we can become more aware of our current choices and nurture ourselves through the necessary changes to move forward.

Science is gradually catching up with the teachings of spiritual elders and teacher regarding the benefits of grounding our energies, visualization, focus on the breath (are you breathing shallow or consciously), awareness of what your body is telling you when something feels off and honoring it all while  practicing a deep heart felt space of gratitude for the power which you hold as a spiritual being living a human experience, in order to create with more clarity.

Scientific research like that of the “Heart Math Institute” is revealing that not only our minds but also our bodies retain our experiences. The key lies in navigating these layers of experiences with awareness and compassionate care. This requires diligence, patience, and often repetition. We possess the ability to shift our beliefs to align more closely with our true desires. Through awareness and heartfelt practices, we can transform old beliefs, patterns, and habits.

Some simple steps  towards gaining a more comprehensive understanding of your current state and progress:

1. Energy Direction: Identify the primary sources of your energy throughout the day, including people, places, and objects. Are these areas conducive to a productive and healthy lifestyle?

2. Bandwidth Assessment: On a scale of 1% to 100%, assess your current bandwidth or capacity to handle any potential challenges.  What steps are you taking to increases your capacity levels when they are low?

3. Energy Projection: Reflect on how you project your energy. Are you Aware and Mindful of how you are showing up in the day?

4. Outcome Evaluation: Consider the consequences of your energy direction. Do you find the resulting emotions, sensations, and perceptions are helping you in anyway? If so, how and if not, why not?

Here is a fun easy way to help you recognize how you are feeling and how to create from a conscious awareness throughout your day: your day:

Starting with you morning routine. When you wake up, visualize your experiences as colors. Here are a few of mine:

Example:

* Sunlight streaming through windows: Yellow and joyful.

* Shower water: Refreshing, soothing, liquid white light.

* Brushing teeth: Cool, with a soft hue of blue

* Brushing hair: Grounding, brown tone.

As you choose your attire for the day, consider your mood and the colors that would enhance it and what colors you might add to this:

* Calm: Blues

* Energized: Reds

* Joyful: Yellows

* Grounded: Earth Tones (Green/Brown)

* Safe: Black

* Combination: Yellow for joy and Earth tones for grounding, maintaining a joyful yet balanced frequency.

Alternatively, opt for bright blue with black slacks or a skirt for a calm yet steadfast sense of security.

Colors provide valuable insights into our energetic state and can serve as effective tools for guiding our choices in life.

Home and Office Color Analysis:

Reflect on the colors present in your home and office. How do they influence your emotions?

Consider incorporating colors that promote calmness, joy, inspiration and grounding into your home or work environment.

Don’t forget to journal your insights and effects that your conscious creating is having on your mood, choices and beliefs.

Happy Creating!

With Love and Gratitude,
