Dear Ones,
Are you up for an adventure? My new online course, The Dance of the Critic & the Muse: A 7-Step Initiation Into the Voice & Vision of Your Soul, starts today!
You need to know something, though… Whenever you dive into the territory of the Inner Critic, things can get a bit wild. There can be lots of stops and starts, as well as “gates” that can prevent you from seeing what’s really happening behind “the closed doors” of your prefrontal cortex. That’s because the Critic’s influence can show up in your brain as a “normal” function that’s gone awry.
In contrast, the Muse expresses in your body through your senses, informing your brain about different perspectives.
This can create a disconnect between your mind and body that absolutely influences your consciousness in direct and indirect ways…
In this experiential 7-week journey with me, I’ll guide you in easy, fun, and highly transformative hands-on exercises that can help you heal the fragmented divide between what you truly feel inside you and how you’re showing up in the world…
You’ll experience a mind-and-body collaboration.
I’m hopping up and down with excitement about sharing this special time with you, which you’ll experience as an initiation that will help your creative Self flow and your authentic, soul-led self-expression ignite.
I’ve intentionally kept some of what we’ll be doing a secret… Curiosity and the element of surprise are essential to truly experiencing the transformation that’s possible through the embodied expression of Intentional Creativity that we’ll explore.
To comfort your left brain, you can read about the seven Initiatory Gates you’ll be “walking through” during our seven weeks together, here. Yet, once you read it, forget it immediately, so you can re-enter the space of inquiry with the Muse filled with curiosity!
I could share all you’ll discover and experience in this new course to show you what a powerful choice it is for your healing and transformation. However, I imagine there’s something even more powerful than that coming to life in you, right now, as you read this.
If you’re trying to decide whether or not to join us, perhaps just ask the Muse. The Critic will tell you that you don’t need one more course, and that you’ve already learned enough about her. She may even try to convince you that the Muse doesn’t actually exist.
This course can help you. And my biggest promise when you join us is that how your brain works will be deeply altered — for the better — through this experience. The inner narrative of your Critic will be alchemized, giving you access to creative flow states that can help you step out into the world, and into your life, in more authentic and joyous ways.
You’ll experience liberating self-expression, as your time with the Muse delights you and turns you on to explore sensations that have been dormant. You’ll learn how to connect mind and body through Intentional Creativity practices, such as metacognitive drawing.
You’ll discover that knowing your voice and vision is not a self-explanatory journey. There’s work to be done… and you’ve done what’s most essential, because your voice and vision are connected with your actual speaking and actual seeing.
You’ll learn that what’s really important is how they function in your life. Can you see clearly what you know? Can you clearly speak your truth — what you feel?
During our time together, you’ll be working with pen and paper, because it can give you greater access to your brain — combining the power of its right and left hemispheres.
Most exercises will be a surprise. We sometimes need to trick the Critic a bit. AND yes, I realize that many of you may be scared of drawing, perhaps feeling you’re not talented.
Well, this kind of drawing isn’t about knowing how to draw. It’s about what happens in your brain, eyes, and body WHILE you’re in the act of creating.
Will you be brave? Do you have a secret wish to create? Have you been nursing your self-expression in the dark? Maybe your Critic is raging right now… the louder the Critic, the hotter and more important the topic!
If you’re interested in quantum physics, consciousness, and the dance of form and energy, and you’re ready to change how you think, see, act, and show up in all areas of your life, this is literally the place to start.
You can change all kinds of things in your life, but if your seeing and listening is clouded by your Inner Critic, you can’t clearly hear your own true voice or see your own soul’s vision. Thousands have testified that the practices we’ll explore in this course have shifted the way they live their lives… instead of life happening to them, they’re now happening to their lives.
Your experience will be your own, unpredictable and wild… After all, all of this — the modules and your experience of them — is subject to the Muse.
Come play with us, be surprised, and engage in unravelling the riddles that have kept you and your story held captive. The combination of neuroscience, creativity, poetry, ritual, embodied actions, and dares — and to bring this to life in your own experience — is super hot, if I do say so myself!
You’ll be invited on adventures you’ve never taken before…
and have a good time doing it! YAHOOO! Let’s go on an adventure!
