Creativity
Find your inspiration and increase your creativity! Creativity is a huge part of life; some would argue creativity IS life. You do not have to be a professional fine artist or “fuzzy” type to develop your creative capacity. Creative thought and action in daily life brings color, joy and increase capability to any aspect of your life. I am hugely indebted to Julia Cameron and her book The Artists Way for setting me on the path to fulling living my creative life. From her work, my quest has gone far and wide to bring you articles, gadgets, books, films, videos, projects and exercises that can expand your creative arsenal. Here is an arsenal of my most favorite inspiration and creativity boosting goodies; I get excited just thinking about all this cool stuff to do!

While I understand that this is a highly simplistic statement “your genetics are affected by lifestyle, ” it is absolutely true! Epigenetic science (the science of how our genetic code is influenced by a host of lifestyle factors) is revolutionary. Actual Western Medicine doctors are speaking out in greater numbers about the influence of everything from subconscious thoughts to holistic energy medicine, diet, yoga, your friends and yes, you environment upon your expressed genetic code. Indeed this means that when you polish up your life holistically, you will have a better chance of avoiding the less awesome genes you may carry. Continue Reading…

We can absolutely get smarter, each and every one of us. Becoming smarter requires training and exercise for your mind, and it doesn’t have to be tedious and lame. Even video games can boost intelligence! In the field of learning, it has been proven that constantly challenging yourself in various ways is key to continued growth. If you don’t keep challenging your mind, it will become lazy, just like your body. Coasting through life ultimately means you are not staying at the same level… you are declining. Even if you are active and if you do the same set of exercises over and again, ultimately you will not benefit as much from them over time. When you are in any kind of rut, you will go through the motions and yet not feel the intense feeling of having to push, to dig or shatter resistance to get to the next level. You’ll sort of dwindle, and we can’t have dwindling! Lets all get smarter, instead!!! Continue Reading…
In life, there will always be a force to oppose your force. There will always be resistance, and people who thrive on that resistance become innovators. It’s Yin & Yang. Its the tension between dark and light, yes and no, stretch and sit still that is engaging. Its really funny when you are so psyched up and excited for change and at the same time you cling to the present, no matter how crappy it is. That’s the dichotomy of many of our lives- we crave evolution and yet we struggle to hold on to things the way they are- even the way we look- with equal fervor. Its not a disorder or a human failure- its the natural laws of physics, of nature, at play in life. What do you do, though, when you are so at odds with yourself that you can’t quite take a solid step forward? Continue Reading…

We learn from our sense of touch. We made judgments based on touch, and our emotions are altered bu the sense of touch. Did you know that by loading a room with specific “feeling” textures and weights you can influence an experience of space for yourself or others? Continue Reading…

It is endlessly fascinating that the notion of our own personal “glowing field” of energy- not just within us but surrounding us, is being measured and discovered to be a real thing. You can feel the energy of certain people; you can see the energy around certain people. When you are excited and grounded and happy people will tell you that you glow. You actually DO glow, at least that’s what has now been measured as a fact. Lets take a look at ways that the glow of energy that surrounds us may affect our wellness and impact our world…and explore a few ideas to increase that glow!!! Continue Reading…
