The Joy of Spiritual Creativity Can Save Your Life
Have you been so afraid that you were unable to do anything? Have you experienced feeling frozen in your situation? A solution to moving above your static state is to create.
Creativity brings great joy both as spirit and for your body. Creativity helps you balance your spirit-body duality because you create spirituality through your physical vessel the body. In fact your body is the creative vehicle for you, the spirit, in the physical world. Your spiritual creativity allows you to manifest your desires in this physical world.
If you question what to create, remember the simple vibration of creativity will activate, enliven and rejuvenate you, so create anything! Bake a cake, sing a song, visit a friend, meditate and motion begins again. Create something and you change your energy. If you are frozen, take a walk, meditate, breathe deeply and while your body changes your spirit/body relationship changes also. Meditation will help you see what to create, as well as, how to create it.
“Our spiritual ability to create and destroy is another ingredient in meditation. We need to be able to destroy or let go to clear away unwanted concepts and make room for new ones. We must create to continue to change and grow. We create and destroy to heal so it is important to become conscious of our creation process. If we create without letting go, we become engulfed in our creations. We cannot destroy or let go without creating something new to fill the empty space. We need both sides of this dichotomy to balance our creativity. The circle of creation includes both our abilities to create and to destroy.”
A friend asked me what to do when she was feeling so afraid she couldn’t function. I told her to create! “What do I create?” She asked, and I said meditate on “what”. My friend had focused her meditation on what she wanted to clear from her past and forgot to create what she wanted to create in the present. By focusing on creating in the present she balanced and healed. My friend remembered she wanted a house and in the process of creating she brought herself back to life. She found her ideal job, new friends and a new life where she is learning to express her spiritual talents into her physical world.
My favorite way to create is meditation which allows me to bring spirit and body together creating motion on both levels. This balance of spiritual and physical realities supports creativity by helping me, the spirit, to connect to my physical reality and have a neutral, spiritual perspective of my world.
Meditation helps you get in motion, see what you want to create and how to create it. Bring back the joy in your life – create!
