So today what is alive in the space to talk about is two topics that are seemingly interrelated and extremely related.
The first one is courage and the next one is creativity.
And I know it takes courage to follow your convictions and it takes courage to listen to that creative impulse that is calling you,
Beckoning you to put something in the world.
And so we're just gonna just do a meditation on that and we will see what evolves.
So just take a few minutes and just I want you to breathe right now and allow yourself to get as comfortable as you can in your body where you are sitting or lying.
And in your mind give yourself permission to be fully present.
I say yes to receive all that my soul needs to hear right now.
I say yes to more courage,
More creative impulses,
More expression of my truth,
Whatever that is in the world.
I say yes to that.
I want you to say that and breathe it in.
And when you think of being courageous in whatever venue that shows up or however it shows up or when you think of being creative like creating stuff for your life or your business,
Where's the resistance?
I want you to just right now allow that to surface.
Maybe it's the little voices that tell you like oh my they're they're gonna judge you so much this is gonna get you in trouble.
Or maybe you're hearing that nobody would want my stuff.
Like I'm not that creative.
So I want you to take a moment and normally we lean away from the negative voices but now we're just gonna lean in.
We're just gonna imagine you're setting a table and you're like okay bring it.
I want to hear it all.
Go.
Go.
Just put all your offerings at the table.
All the narratives about how nobody will listen and how I'm wrong or bad or I can't create.
I want you just to allow all of that without judgment.
So imagine they're all coming to the table and all just there.
Now here you are wanting to be creative and courageous and these are all the things that are holding you back.
Some of them are your lived experiences and many are others lived experiences.
Perhaps your families or the society you live in,
The people you're with.
You might have taken on your mom's trauma or your generational shame.
Just observe it.
Now what's crazy is that we're gonna send it love.
All these pieces and parts that have done their very very best to try to protect you.
I want you to go to your heart.
Soften.
And it's like oh you're so precious.
You were just trying to keep me safe.
You didn't want me to get hurt or judged.
You didn't want me to be rejected.
You wanted to make sure I fit in and I kept the people around.
I get it.
And I just thank you and honor you for your part trying to help me stay safe,
Stay sane,
Stay acceptable.
Just take a minute.
Just breathe and notice what shifts in you and and all these little things across all these pieces of resistance.
And here's the important part.
And now you're gonna lean in and say but you gotta go because I'm courageous.
I'm creative.
And here's why I have to express that.
Here's why it matters.
And imagine you are pouring your heart out.
I'm just gonna give you a few minutes here.
Just tell that tell this and tell the world why you are called to express your courage and your creativity.
Just be in that space.
Feeling it and expressing it and explaining it.
And as you are hearing yourself say this,
Imagine that all the things,
All these pieces and parts and narratives and stories and feelings and fears,
They hear you and they just go.
So now it's just you and your soul and the expression and the expansion and the courage and the creativity and the magic that you are here to do and be and have.
Take a breath and breathe into all of that.
There you go.
Now we're gonna just do a quick moment of you walking through your life fully creative,
Fully courageous,
Following your convictions,
Having the discipline to do all the creative stuff you want.
You're walking through life.
Notice what is different.
I want you to imprint that in your body.
I want you to be able to access this state,
This version of you.
So take a moment,
Feel how it feels in your body.
Just say,
I will have more of this please.
This is the new me.
This is how I show up.
I am fully on board.
I give myself all the permission I need.
This is done and I'm so grateful for this.
So taking another few moments,
Just kind of savor this yummy energy and then allow yourself to slowly return back to your body.
There we go.
Knowing that this is yours.
This is a new set point.
You have rewired something.
I want you to celebrate that.
