Creative Visualizations
Creative visualization uses your imagination to help you create the life you love. You can also use it as a spring board into deeper states of knowingness and inner guidance. This is an aspect of the workshops I run.
If you are you interested in learning some simple techniques on how to be more in tune with your naturally joyful, creative self you may like to listen to an audio visualization on this page or go to our Visualizations Archive.
"Joy"
There will be a new visualization every month, so you can collect them and have your own resource. You can receive them via email hot off the ethers by subscribing to the free ezine (Click here). They will cover all kinds of themes from opening your heart more, to creating greater health, clarity, abundance and love in your life.
Below are some more insights and tips on creative visualization.
Why Visualize Daily?
A daily dose of Creative Visualizations makes the difference between walking through the day asleep and frustrated, and dancing through it awake and happy.
Why? Because when we tune into our highest self on a daily basis we can develop the habit of being in the state of enlightenment and joy. Negative thought patterns gradually change into positive ones that make us feel good. I like to visualize before painting or starting my day so that I can bring the highest good into my whole day. Brain synaptic connections that create negative behaviour gradually shift to connections that create more positive experiences. The more we become habituated to tuning in and allowing pure energy to flow through us with positive thoughts and feelings, the more we will become a walking light bulb, lighting up our own world and the world of those around us.
Whatever you focus your attention on will be attracted into your life. You will become that thing. The creative life force will manifest whatever you think about, whether good or bad.
Here's how that worked for me. When I first started painting places I had visited in meditation, I realized that as I was painting them I brought the energy from these places not only into my painting but also into my life and into other's lives too. My life was becoming the paintings.
"You"
When we work creatively with our desires -doing a creative visualization or drawing or writing about them - they become very charged and are far more likely to manifest. Being creative with an open heart inevitably brings more beauty, joy, and happiness into our life.
Being tuned into our true self leads to a more abundant, relaxed, trusting everyday life. Visualizations can become one of the tools for achieving this happy state.
"Abundance"
Add Sound to Your Visualization
We are ultimately pure energy vibrating in light and sound.
For a creative visualization to be really powerful try working with sound as well.
It works like this.
We resonate with the sounds we hear. That's why we all like different kinds of music because we are made up not only light vibrations but sound too. Some sounds are extremely charged and can hook you up with your higher self. When you sing these sounds with love in your heart you have the formula for a direct dial to soul, to love or your inner knowingness. It always needs to be done with a surrender to the highest good. If you are going to visualize wouldn't it be great to be in tune with what is for your highest good, so try using sound too.
The sound of HU is a sound that resonates with soul. It is a very pure sound and can gently open the heart. It is an ancient sound that has been used for millennium. You sing Huuuuu in a long drawn out breath repeatedly. It can feel strange at first when you are not used to it but after a while as you soften with it, it feels really good.
I use it whenever I feel I need some guidance, to calm down, to feel some love and mainly as a way of keeping me dialed in.
If you sing this every day, you gradually start resonating with Love and the creative flow more and more and therefore become a magnet for it.
If you would like to try singing a Hu or two with me just click here and I will guide you through it (1:30 min).
"Into Your Heart"
Evening Visualization and a Little on Dreams
This one follows on from the morning visualization. Do it just before you go to bed or even whilst lying in bed.
Stand under the Waterfall again and plunge the water light right through your body clearing any unuseful attachments from the day. As you do it you can say, “I clear and release anything that is not for my highest good.” Then think of all the things that you can be thankful for the day, however small. This can be difficult at first if the day has been tough, but just thinking about it will attract more things to be thankful for into your life.
Then ask a question you have about your life before drifting off. Write down your dreams in the morning, even the tiniest whiff of them. Every day your dream state will give you a piece of the puzzle towards your question. Writing down your dreams acknowledges that you honor your inner worlds and they will open up more easily for you in your waking and sleeping state. It leads to greater intuition and understanding of your life, clearer visualizations and more ease with painting and creative processing. If you don't remember your dreams, just write any vague feelings or impressions that you had, this will start to unlock the door.
Here's a Dream I Had That Became This Pastel
I had this dream and it was so real I got up straight away and sketched it quickly. Later that year my husband took me out on a sail boat as a surprise for my birthday and as I stood looking out to the ocean, breathing in the sea air I realized it was the moment from my dream. Later the sketch became this drawing. It also later became a journey I took to see the Black Madonna in Sainte Marie sur la Mer.
