Creative Spirituality Big Ideas

  • Every creative journey is unique. We are all on a creative journey.
  • Don’t judge ideas or dreams, your own or those of others. Unnecessary labels are judgments.
  • Negative emotions are needed as part of the journey. Learn to embrace them, and use them to grow. Release the fear of the unknown.
  • Our spirit is practiced in what we think about and in the actions we take. You cannot hide who you are. Your spirit reveals all.
  • Spiritual practices should be custom made to enhance your needs and goals.
  • Positivity enhances life, but it cannot be your only view.
