Hello and welcome to this practice to help you ignite your creativity.
My name is Jennifer White and it's an honor to guide you.
This practice is to take you deeper into your creative goals and ignite what's calling you,
To inspire you to take action.
Before we begin,
I suggest you have a notebook and pen nearby for some journaling at the end of the practice.
You may like to pause the track and collect those now so you can easily access them when it's time.
The poet Rumi said,
Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of that which you truly love.
We all know that what we truly,
Deeply love lights us up.
We have more spring in our step,
More excitement in our body.
We gain more drive and determination and we feel more alive.
When we're stepping forward into a new goal,
Into the stronger pull of that which we desire,
We can also feel a hesitation or a trepidation.
What if it doesn't work out?
What if my dream doesn't come true?
What if this isn't the right path for me to try?
But your inner voice,
Your truest voice is saying,
Just try.
Imagine that.
When we follow a creative goal,
We must learn to use our imagination.
It helps to immerse ourselves in what it looks and feels like to be living that reality right now.
Just like an artist imagining their painting before they pick up a brush.
Or an actor believing in their character's story before they step onto a stage.
And just like many Olympic athletes who use mind movies as part of their elite preparation.
These athletes visualize themselves going through every moment and motion of a race in advance from starting point to finish line.
Seeing,
Feeling,
Living every step,
Turn and strategy so they become and achieve their personal best.
Whether we call it imagination,
Visualization,
Mind movies,
Or manifestation,
When we feel our desired goals in our bones and see them in our mind's eye,
We're drawn by the stronger pull towards them like a magnet.
So let's take you down that path together.
Let's help you imagine your dreams,
Ignite your creativity,
And plan to pursue your passion in a greater way.
Let's begin.
Get yourself into a comfortable position.
Make any little adjustments your body needs so you feel balanced and centered.
And lift your heart space a little higher.
Breathe in and feel yourself settle.
I want you to bring to mind a creative activity that's calling you right now.
Something you'd love to do next.
Something that would light you up from the inside out and bring a big smile to your face.
Feel it.
Where do you feel that joy in your body?
Now let me ask you,
If life was to wave a magic wand and within the next year you were exploring and expressing this creative activity in a brilliant way,
What would you be doing?
What does it look like?
Bring any images into your mind.
Imagine you're doing and feeling it right now.
See your arms and hands engaged in it.
See your spine shifting shape as you do it.
Notice your intuition making fantastic decisions and you following them.
Notice yourself chuckle at a momentary stumble.
You know it's simply part of the growth process.
See yourself realign from the stumble and come back into easy balance.
Feel yourself expressing your joy and creativity with energy and enthusiasm.
Notice that you're vibrating at a higher level and it feels wonderful.
See it.
Feel it.
Here you are.
That's you.
Expressing yourself and exploring your creativity in a wonderful way.
And it feels fun and you feel free.
This,
What you're feeling and seeing.
This is what your heart wishes.
This experience,
This magic.
Now imagine from where you are in your life today,
What are some simple steps you can take within the next month to move you closer to this vision?
Just think one step at a time.
What would be the first thing you can do?
What would be the second?
And the third?
How can you make these three steps easy and enjoyable?
Creativity should be joyous and fun.
Our lives are richer when we pursue our creative passions and when we give ourselves a greater permission to play.
So as we start to close our practice,
I hope you're feeling clearer about your creative desires and what you truly want to explore and express.
I hope you feel inspired to take intentional action and create simple steps for your path.
And I hope you know that you deserve to love your life and to follow your heart.
Place your hands on your heart.
Breathe in.
Gently wiggle your fingers.
Have a nice stretch.
And when you're ready,
Open your eyes and come back into your space.
