ARTIST & SINGER
All in Soul Stirrings
An invitation to return to stillness, beauty & creativity. This will be a restorative afternoon focused on a gentle unfolding to heart centered awareness. A multi sensory journey infused with the perfume of roses. Including an immersive sound bath, guided visualisation with rose quartz, reflection and journaling, a beautiful art activity and divine rose petal tea.
Some people will be literally running out of lockdown, embracing freedom with arms wide open…but as I was creating this artwork yesterday … I was sensing… for me… it will be a gradual emergence from my creative cocoon.
For many years I have been viewing Lion Island from a distance.
I painted this watercolour ‘plein air’ a while ago …sitting on bench at West Head Lookout.
Little did I know back then, that one day I would actually be living in that landscape and watching the way the sun touched the Hawkesbury sandstone outcrops of Lion Island, this time from the other side.
This morning, I had the most amazing experience… where time stood completely still …. all that I was aware of was my breath…and….connectedness to Spirit.
As I mentioned in my post last week, I’ve set an intention this year to ‘live lighter’.
I’m already feeling the benefits of letting go and surrendering to the stirrings within my soul ( as I let go of trying to control outcomes or playing things safe ) ….I’m finding that in letting go of rigid ways of thinking and staying open to what I intrinsically know and feel is true in my heart and soul, that I am actually receiving so much more in return, including a beautiful sense of oneness with spirit which brings peace and flow.
I stopped making new year’s resolutions a few years ago, I now set intentions because I find that these resonate more with my soul. This year I’ve made an intention to ‘live lighter’. Although there is a letting go of material possessions that no longer spark joy, the intention is more to live lighter emotionally.
But what I’m finding is that my intuitive inner voice (that I’m consciously allowing to guide me as I create) is so alive that the whispers are waking me in the middle of the night.
Anyone who has had a dog knows the unconditional love they give. Our hearts are breaking and we’re going to feel numb for a while but I know that her presence will always be with us.
Sunday May 12th is Mother’s Day here in Australia and this Mother’s Day I felt like doing something very special to celebrate my mum and many others who are cancer survivors.
I have just finished painting a lovely floral still life acrylic painting “Belle Gardenia” and it will go to the highest bidder (as of Sun May 12 at 5pm (AEST).
As a way of ‘giving back’ on this special day, I am going to donate all the proceeds to the Cure Brain Cancer Foundation.
To be in the running all you need to do is to type your $ bid in the comment section below, between 8pm Sat May 11 - 5pm Sunday May 12 (AEST).
