Welcome back to the space,

Beautiful humans,

Beautiful souls.

I am dropping in here into this space,

One as a recommitment to myself and my creativity.

A recommitment to my values of communication and community.

And a recommitment to being what I wish to see in the world.

Part of that,

That I feel like we all experience but I'll speak for myself,

Is that we often face fears.

And at times when we feel most stuck or stagnant,

It's because that fear is stepping in to the driver seat.

The fear is taking a hold on our life force energy.

The fear is keeping our body in a state of dis-ease or dis-harmony.

And I often ask myself,

Tara,

Are you choosing love or are you choosing fear?

And one of the pieces that I can articulate within my own journey at the moment is that when I am unconsciously choosing fear,

I'm also not asking myself that question.

The perpetuation of that through moment to moment,

Day to day,

Week to week,

Month to month,

Is that there then becomes this disconnection and this re-emergence of stories that once held me bound,

That reappear.

Now,

In the past and in the present,

I've made those reappearances mean that I'm not where I thought I hyphenated should be.

Or I'm here back in this space and therefore I should stop trying and quit.

Or XYZ is not meant for me or ABC is too hard.

And I'm sure you can apply that to your own version variation of that.

However,

When I allow myself to hit the pause button and really be self-accountable,

Self-responsible,

I know and understand that our healing journey,

Our journey to deeper truth and embodiment and wholeness is forever unfolding.

And when I can love myself in both fear and love because we cannot escape the duality,

My capacity to be with the whole of myself opens up.

And then from that space of acceptance,

Of accepting myself,

Of accepting where I am,

Of accepting the emotions that potentially I am trying to avoid or equally maybe I'm clinging to so that I don't move forward.

When I allow myself to deeply accept that,

My capacity to be with the full spectrum of my truth opens even greater.

And this is a part of the conversation that I really wanted to rawly,

Unscriptedly drop in here.

And to be in acceptance of the totality of what we are experiencing and to feel that acceptance viscerally within your body,

Welcomes us into this opportunity to expand our capacity for love,

Truth,

Joy and possibility.

We can so easily choose to suffer because suffering and pain sadly has become a comfort zone in our world.

And this is not to just dismiss any pain,

Suffering or trauma that is currently presenting in worlds beyond our own known realities and worlds because those experiences truly do exist.

But there also is this point for some of us where we're reaching a state of deeper embodied wholeness which ultimately energetically has an impact and an imprint that we want to make on the world.

Then our ability to breathe that in and to be that is what we are then being invited to welcome and choose from within ourselves first so that we can be that out in the world.

One of the things I know to be true is how when we're in a state of fear and it's not about making fear wrong because fear is a part of being human.

However,

Fear will block creativity and creativity is so deeply profoundly healing.

And so when we feel safe,

Our creativity unfolds like a beautiful flower.

So to understand how fear blocks creativity,

I invite you to take a moment to imagine yourself telling a story.

And first imagine telling the story to someone you love and someone who really loves you.

And when you're telling that story to this person,

You probably feel a deep warmth and energy as you fill in the details of your tale to your friends delight.

Yeah.

Now imagine yourself telling the same story to someone who for some reason makes you feel uncomfortable.

The wonderful twists and turns the fine points and the colorful images that unfolded in your mind for your friend more than likely probably won't present themselves.

Instead of warmth,

Energy and creativity,

You'll actually probably feel the opposite sensations and a desire to armor up or shut down.

When we feel unsafe,

Whether we fear being judged,

Disliked or misunderstood,

Our creative flow stops.

The river doesn't flow in the way that it naturally likes to flow because the riverbank has become shaky in its structure.

So alternatively,

When we feel safe,

Our creativity unfolds like a beautiful flower without conscious effort.

And I'm speaking to hear real authentic creativity,

Inspiration that is fueled from within yourself or hitting you not from scrolling on social media or looking at what he or she is doing.

Or wanting to create your version of what that person has created.

Rather,

It is a true embodied flow,

Which that in of itself is really vulnerable to be within in this world at this current time.

I feel that knowing this gives us access to maximize our own personal creative potential by creating the conditions that inspire our creativity.

By nurturing the soil and planting the seeds in our own gardens to nurture and nourish our own creative environments.

In order to really be in flow,

We truly need to feel safe and unrestricted from within our bodies,

In our nervous systems.

However,

Achieving this is not as simple as avoiding people.

I know that we cannot avoid people always who make us feel uncomfortable.

Sometimes we can be alone in a room and still feel totally blocked.

When this happens though,

We know we've come up against elements in our own psyche that are making us feel fearful.

We're reaching an upper limit and perhaps we're afraid that in expressing ourselves,

We will discover something we don't necessarily want to know.

Or it will open up and unleash emotions or ideas that we don't want to be responsible for.

And hand on hand,

Hand in the air,

I know this in all of its arrays is something that I've personally experienced a few times over this far on my journey.

I feel sometimes maybe we're even afraid we'll fail to produce something worthy or we're afraid we will produce something worthy.

And therefore,

We fear the success and the impact and the implementation of what our creativity naturally wants to unfold from within us.

So I want to invite you into a practice when you're up against fear,

Internal or external,

Ritual can be a powerful and creative antidote.

Before you sit down to be creative,

Try casting a circle of protection around you,

Visualising yourself sitting in a ring of light,

Protective fire or angels calling upon God's source,

The universe.

And imagine that this protective energy emanates unconditional love for you and wants to hear,

See and feel everything you have to express.

Allow yourself to take a moment to bathe in the warmth of this feeling and then fearlessly allow yourself to surrender yourself to the flower and the power that flows through you.

Every act of creation that extends from love is truly healing.

It's revealing to us new possibilities and new worlds through the art of feeling.

And this naturally shifts into raising the vibration and the love of the earth.

This is not a time for us to give up.

Our contribution to the earth is needed more than ever.

And I'm saying this to whoever needs to hear this alongside me.

Sometimes we may feel as though there is no point and that everything is stacked up against us and that your creative expression is just another voice in an extremely noisy room.

I want to tell you that it isn't.

We get to forget the algorithms.

We get to forget the noise,

The numbers and the material parameters that we've created,

That the world has created,

That has had us limit the infinite flow of the creative life force that wants to birth through us.

This conversation here today is your invitation to feeling flow,

To choosing to welcome yourself into the pleasure of the entire process.

We are growing into a culture that is encouraging apathy.

This is where our energy is currency.

Our creativity is currency.

The two of them expanding our frequency for truth,

Love and possibility.

Your awareness in this moment is the most valuable thing there is.

Your awareness of self,

Your awareness of how other impacts you,

Your awareness of your environment,

Your energy,

Your actions.

And then with that,

What we have the opportunity to do is focus our awareness on things that we are choosing.

Focus our awareness on peace,

Loving kindness,

Compassion,

Connection,

Community,

The things we wish to see.

Bringing our focus to those places generates a natural domino effect from within ourselves,

Not to bypass any current reality,

But to equally be in a state and space from within to regenerate a new reality.

Focusing on creativity allows us to contribute to raising collective consciousness,

Frequency,

Healing,

Truth.

This is where our delightful creative souls and hearts are an essential aspect of collective creation on the earth because everything you create contributes to our unification.

Whatever creative desires moves through you,

Follow it.

Paint that picture,

Write that song,

Cook that meal,

Sculpt that pottery,

Write that story or that book or that poem,

Create those children,

Birth those babies,

Design that living space,

Paint your home,

Do up your car,

Change your hair,

Make that coffee,

Create that picnic,

That holiday,

That travel adventure.

Every act which brings something into being through you is in art creation.

We are creative beings.

This is our essence on the earth.

Our energy will either ascend or descend.

And so if we aren't creating or being ascending,

You are likely consuming and over consuming and descending.

And you will naturally be able to notice where you are on that spectrum just from hearing me say that sentence because a density may have appeared within the field of your energy and body.

Every act of creation in a world where binge consuming information keeps us paralyzed from taking the actions that we wish to take in our own life,

We get to radically protest and become the most embodied sacred activists for changing from within ourselves.

Choose love.

Love is healing.

Love your fear and choose to go beyond it.

You are changing the world one creative act at a time by following your truth and standing in your bliss.

By loving the light and the dark that reveals to you new worlds of possibility from within yourself.

You are extending love and healing towards humanity and the earth.

You are the muse,

The art,

The artist,

And the medicine of you,

Your life,

And your journey.

Take it by the reins and let it infuse your senses and heart and be a part of being because you are a beautiful flower.

And when you feel safe within yourself,

That flower will bloom.

Thank you for dropping in with me.

Thank you for being here.

Thank you for being willing to be in conversations that allow you to meet yourself.

Thank you for choosing your healing and your wholeness,

Your art and your heart.

Speak soon.

Absolutely beautiful - your words made so much sense to me. Thank you 🙏🏻

Beautiful, encouraging words. I was distracted by the music at the beginning but it softens later in the talk.
