The Life-Changing Magic of Rediscovering Creativity as an Adult
When we’re young, we’re encouraged to play, learn new things and express our creativity in endless ways. As we grow up, we find out that we can’t carry that same energy into adulthood - that society places an expiry date on learning new things. If you’re a grown up, it’s time to be responsible, serious, predictable - there’s no room for play and discovery.
Not only is that no fun at all, it also robs us of two things that make life worthwhile - curiosity and creativity.
Meeting life with an attitude of curiosity is one of the distinguishing characteristics of a successful life, but we’re often taught to block ourselves off from that.
The good news is, we can interrupt this pattern and bring unexpected curiosity into our daily lives. But first, we have to welcome creativity with both arms, and be okay with things being messy and unpredictable.
How do we make room for expression and creativity? How do we break away from feeling like we’re too old for play and discovery? In this episode, we talk about how to get back in touch with creativity, and why it leads to a more enriched life.
Things You’ll Learn In This Episode
Continuum of choice vs. limited options
As a society, we have a tendency for polarities and limiting ourselves to either-or choices. How do we open up the possibility for so much more?
Open your fan, express your creativity
Creativity is something we all have but we have to break out of our routines to find it. How do we find what makes life feel like a celebration, rather than a duty?
Why creativity is scary
Many of us are uncomfortable with the messiness of creativity because it’s the opposite of the perfect persona we created for love and approval. How do we embrace the messiness from a place of safety?

Drops of Love: How to Cure Self-Destruction and Self-Sabotage
มุมมอง 416 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
The path from self-destruction to self-love isn’t a straight line. Often when we commit to a kinder relationship with ourselves, we falter and self-sabotage and that leads to guilt and shame, which leads to more self-sabotage. But shame will never fuel a real transformation. What if we could interrupt this spiral with something more friendly? What if we could tap into even the tiniest amount of...
Beyond Compromise: How to Find Real Solutions That Fulfill Everyone's Needs
มุมมอง 9614 วันที่ผ่านมา
When two or more people find themselves at the crossroads of a fundamental decision, the advice they are often given is to compromise. But compromise doesn’t actually lead to a solution that fulfills everyone. More often than not, it leaves both sides feeling like they got robbed, and it kills the connection necessary to come up with something better. Good news - even in the most seemingly impo...

In the event of an emergency ... the body takes notice, but the problem is, people often try to ignore the body or stop it from responding. From panicking and hero-ing to pretending that nothing happened, we tend to come up with ways to avoid the healthiest response of all - feeling. Between a stimulus and a response, there’s this tiny and beautiful opening for us to go with the feeling. When w...
Unlock the Power of Attention: How to Shift from Chaos to Calm Instantly
มุมมอง 6328 วันที่ผ่านมา
In order to be, play and love, we have to become very intentional about where we’re placing our attention. Now, we might think attention is something we do from our critical and conscious mind, but true attention comes from our body wisdom. When we give attention to the right things, we get into the flow and that opens up so much aliveness. Even in the most chaotic situations, like a crowded ai...
Attention…Nourishing Medicine or Destructive Drug?
มุมมอง 35หลายเดือนก่อน
Attention is one of the most important aspects of human existence, but also the most misunderstood and misused. When we give attention to ourselves in a nurturing and curious way, it’s a powerful medicine that supports our essence and self-love. When we seek it through external validation it becomes a destructive drug we can never get enough of. So many people get these two things mixed up and ...

As mothers, we truly get to experience the magic and miracle of the female body as we carry our babies. Growing another human being makes us bring attention to our bodies in a profound way.

Because the process of having a baby is governed so heavily by the mechanics an...
Overcome Emotional Eating in 2 Steps
มุมมอง 329หลายเดือนก่อน
For women, one of the biggest battles we fight is with the size of our bodies. Parents, media and society as a whole have conditioned us to believe that our bodies are wrong. Cue the deep-rooted lack of kindness towards ourselves, the spiral of suffering, the fraught relationship with food, and an endless pursuit of physical perfection. Every food choice we make - whether it’s healthy or unheal...

    I agree that it’s a good theory but it has to work in worst case scenario and I don’t believe the constant giving and receiving and attention is an adequate answers to the tragedy and harshness that life brings..the rugged individualist you speak of is not meant to be alone but to stand for the idea that if the worst comes I’ll be ok if my world comes crashing down on me I’ll be able to pick up and carry on I’ll be able to face this and I won’t turn away from a good path out of desperation. Making the individual dependable under all circumstances and therefore more worthy and likely to receive these transactions of attention and giving/receiving types of relationships.. the videos represented theory only works when there is a provider present or at least a close to equal collaborator…the “rugged theory”works in worst case and in the best case

    Yes, but... Would also be get to emphasize that it is legitimate to perhaps need training to not "knee jerk it back". Overcoming, aggressive programming is not necessarily an 'instant choice'. The choice first and foremost is to learn about how not to be ruled by our past-then to put it into action. Dr. Steve

    I love this conversation. I found this podcast while googling Sense Foraging. A thought about "flooding". In the place of overwhelm, my mind goes to doing everything humanly possible to stop the problem and skirt disaster. Basically to survive this present incident. Recently I saw there will always be another incident, and so keeping myself "safe" is really fallacy. Very much like having an addition and seeking a fix. Sitting in the flooding is actually safe, even though I have believe it to be dangerous. Wanted to jump in and add this.
