ARTS CREATIVE  WORK  NATURE

I encourage working in any medium to express yourself, especially using arts to depict anything from dreams and symbols within dreams. It’s not the product that matters, its what comes to consciousness during the act of making that matters. The arts can allow nonverbal depth of expression that doesn’t rely on cognitive, linear, language aspects of the brain/mind.

Listening to music, visiting art shows & galleries, dancing, singing, sewing, gardening, building in all kinds of ways; whatever you are moved to do is encouraged. I love films.

Writing in any form is a powerful path of self-expression. Reading, researching symbols, studying culture, race, ancestral material can offer further depth of understanding in your dreams and life. Knowing our cultural and racial history is essential, although painful, this increases our humanity.

I wish everyone would spend time in the natural world daily, however limited or full it can be. Breathing, moving, being with trees and/or under the sky is refreshing and offers wider  perspective, grounding and embodiment and, it comforts body & mind, heart & soul.
