The most magical state I have experienced is flow. When I’m there, I feel as though I am being guided by something, by divine elusive energies—something that’s not exactly me. The world becomes a playground, full of marvel. I become a child in search of wonder. I wanted to brush against this sensation more often, eager to share it with others. Through experience and reflection, I came up with portals to experience this form of uninterrupted play.

Creative Practice workshops are spaces of guided play. The practice is highly meditative, each bubble of experience has a focus of exploration that nourishes and forges the brain-body connection.

It’s a practice in curiosity and patience: with our habits, with ideas, with fear. We strengthen our ability to seek and harness the creativity that is already happening within and around us. 

With a distanced, watchful awareness, we separate the act of practicing from the result, the vessel from the idea, creating access to the wells of experience stored in our being. The goal is to enter a subliminal state, the source of creativity, the curious inner child, while paying attention to the rise of harmful consciousness (judgement, planning, fear, shame) and slowly changing the rate of its occurrence.

We open a portal for transcendence to occur, to receive the elusive creative genius if it visits, and reach a state of uninterrupted marvel. The key is to have the stubbornness to keep showing up.

These notions, when practiced regularly, will translate to a larger life driven by curiosity rather than fear.

I deeply believe that we are all inherently creative, and possess the wonder of imagination. It ’s our ability to stay on that ride, to be taken by the “flow”, that is constantly interrupted by fear, frustration or boredom. In order for us to realize the vault of our capacities, we must be brave, repeatedly strengthen the muscle of courage in the face of the unknown, where ideas are waiting to be realized, where creativity lives.
