Speaker 2 (00:50):
Hello everyone, and welcome to the Inspired and Empowered Living
TV show and podcast. And we are live Thursdays at
five pm Eastern on talkfortv dot com, W FOURWN dot
com and my YouTube channel. And today we are going
(01:13):
to be talking about creative freedom, opening and unlocking your
limitless potential. And during today's show, we're going to be
talking about breaking through your blocks, expanding your vision, igniting
your creative flow, trusting your unique ideas, and stepping into abundance.
(01:40):
And it's time for you to break free, create boldly,
and thrive. Yay. And I'm your host, Nancy Deutsch, licensed
clinical social work or certified hypnotherapist and intuitive business expert.
I can buy my counseling, coaching and intuitive abilities to
transform your life and your business so that you can
(02:05):
create more income, impact and trust your intuition. So and
this show is not a replacement for therapy or counseling.
It is for educational purposes only, and let's talk creativity.
So at the end of last show, all of a sudden,
(02:26):
I got the download I got like all of a sudden,
I got the hit that we needed to talk creativity.
Like last show, we were talking about your authentic self
and being your authentic self and learning to really tap
into it. And when you are in that energy of creation,
(02:47):
when you're in the energy of creativity, you are being
your authentic self and creativity and learning to tap into
that creative flow is crucial and essential for a thriving
life and business. In order to create your life and
(03:11):
create the abundance, the health, the relationships that you want,
whether it's your life or your business, tapping into creation
and being creative is going to be a game changer
for you. So stay tuned because we're talking all about
(03:34):
creativity and we have Anastasia who asks are we all
able to be creative? So Anathasia, very interesting that you
ask that question. The truth of the matter is every
single human being on this planet, we are all creating
(03:56):
all the time. Now, the key here is to become
a conscious creator and to be able to create from
that place of consciousness and really clarity and knowing what
it is you want to create and allow that energy
of creativity to flow through you. And so yes, we
(04:19):
are all creating all the time. Now that what I'm
feeling is I need to give my psych one oh
one lesson. So we're all on the same page. And
I see your question, Mickey, and I'll get to it shortly.
So your conscious mind, now, your conscious mind may come
(04:40):
up with an idea or you think about something you
want in your life. Because when you're working on manifesting
or when you are being creative, like allowing yourself to
create a cook cooking is creative. Can be a creative process. Painting, drawing, writing,
(05:02):
those are examples of the creative process. But we are
creating our life. Manifesting is a creative processing. Manifesting the
life you want is a creative process. So what happens
is you think about what you want. That's your conscious
mind making a very clear conscious decision, this is what
(05:24):
I want. However, your subconscious mind, from the moment you
were to conceive to present time, has recorded every moment
that you've been alive, and so there are limiting beliefs
and emotions that will block that creative flow that will
block you from being able to allow yourself to be
(05:48):
in the energy of creation. And so your job is
to understand what are those.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Subconscious block what are the limiting belief and what are
the emotions that would be blocking my creative law or
my creativity.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
And then you have your super conscious mind. And when
you have when you're in that creative flow, you are connected.
You are connected to and with your super conscious mind.
It's you being and feeling and sensing your higher self.
It is you being, feeling and sensing your soul because
(06:31):
you are in the energy of creation. And yes, you
are creating all the time, Anastasia. So everyone is able
to be creative. Now there are people who tend to
be may be more creative than others. Okay, everyone is
able to be creative, So let's just make that very clear.
(06:55):
And yes, there are some people that can be more
creative in certain areas. But I also want you all
to realize that you, each of you, is really unique
unto yourself and that you need to find and I
really want to support you in finding your creative genius.
(07:17):
What is it that you love to do that is
easy for you but not easy for someone else? So
something to think about is really getting in touch with
how your creative genius and yes, you all have it.
You all have a creative genius because that's the gifts
(07:43):
that you have come in with on a soul level.
Those are the things that you're really good at that
someone else isn't and sometimes you may not even realize
that you're good at it. And so that's what I
want to have you think about and explore during the show,
is what am I really good at that maybe other
(08:06):
people aren't. Start being opening to possibilities of creativity that
maybe you haven't been open to before. I invite you
all to be open to those possibilities. Okay, And then
we have Nicky who asks where can our creativity take us? Micky,
(08:28):
our creativity is it's it is when we're in that
creative creative space. It takes us to unlimited places and
spaces and abilities, and we can creatively problem solve and
see things and feel things and know things in different
(08:50):
ways that that normally when we're not in that creative process,
we may not be in touch with And so you'll
create is in each one of you. I want you
really to understand that your creativity is unique unto you. Yes,
there is an energy and a flow of the creative process. Yes,
(09:13):
there is an energy and flow to creativity and you
all have it. And it's about feeling, finding your zone
and being able to be in that energy. And everyone
has it and everyone can do that. Excuse me, I
don't know. I was going to sneeze and then it
did come out. Okay. So yes, So creativity can take
(09:40):
us to unlimited our unlimited potential, and that is the
power of tapping into your creative energy and your creativity. Okay,
excuse me, my allergy is a bother me, so please
bear with me. Okay. And and as always, you know,
I answering your questions. So if there's more questions that
(10:02):
come up as I'm answering, or anything else that comes up,
please feel free to ask away Misty's question. Can you
talk about the different types of creativity and how people
can use them in their life? Please? Okay, So different
types of creativity. So I talked about the energy that
(10:28):
we're all manifestors. We are all creative because we are
actually manifesting our lives, and sometimes it's conscious and a
lot of times it's not conscious. And the more that
you work on clearing those limiting beliefs and the emotions.
The more conscious you can become to create and manifest
(10:52):
what you want in your life. So you have that
type of creativity, and then you have creativity. You can creativity.
You can be creative in problem solving. So let's say
you have a problem and you cannot from I think Einstein,
(11:14):
all right, and I may not be quoting this directly,
but it's something. The quote is something like, if you
think that you can solve your problem from the same
state of consciousness that it came from, that's the definition
of insanity. But you can solve your problems when you
(11:40):
open to creativity. And so creative problem solving is another
form of creativity. And then you have creative process or creation.
People who are creative. And every single one of you
(12:00):
has something I bet you do that's creative that you
may not even define as creative, but you're creating. So
I mentioned before cooking. I know that when I'm cooking,
I can be a very creative person. And when I'm cooking,
I like to mix this spice or that spice. I'll,
(12:23):
you know, I'll just kind of get in the creative
energy and I'm in cooking mode and that my food
comes out and it's a creation. Or artists are creating
their art musicians creating their music, writers are creating their writing,
(12:45):
and you may be in creation. There may be some
artistic form that wants to come through. But I also
realized that the work that I do as a healer,
when I'm working with a client and I am in
the energy, and I am in the energy of presence,
(13:07):
because part of the creative process is being present. You're
in that energy of presence and you're allowing the energy
of your sourceness, your creative you're that super conscious mind
to come through your higher self, your soul. And when
you're in that energy, when you're in that energy, you
(13:32):
like So when I'm with my clients, I'll get ideas.
So when you're in that creative energy, ideas come through
your intuition. I really believe intuition and creativity are they're
they're like this. You can't separate them out because when
you're in the creative process, all of a sudden, you
(13:54):
may get an intuitive hit or an idea like in AHA,
that is intuition and coming through the creative process. So
when you're in the that energy. So as a healer,
you can be in healing mode and you're in the
creative process when you're at work. Maybe you're at work
(14:17):
or are you Anything can be a creation. Being, a
parent being, having a relationship, doing a specific job or task,
or anything can become a creative process. So, Misty, I
hope that answered your question. And again, if you had
(14:39):
any any other questions around what I just said, let
me know. So anything can be a creative process. Really,
and how do you know you're in the creative process?
You know that you're in a creative process when I
really the best way for me to describe it is
your in this energy of flow, your things just happen
(15:04):
easily or And also know that when you're in the
creative process and when you're tapping into your intuition or
you're in your creative genius, that's also the energy of
magic and miracles. That's when the magic and miracles can
happen for you in your life and in your business.
(15:26):
So that is the power of tapping into your creative
flow and allowing that energy of creation to flow. It's
really exciting and it's very powerful. So let's talk about
what would block you from being in that energy and
(15:48):
that energy of flow. Well, blocks are fear. So if
you feel if you feel fear that let's say there's something.
Let's say Okay, coming back to problem solving, because we
all have problems or challenges that we need to overcome
in our life and our business. So we're going to
(16:11):
have situations or challenges that we need to get in
touch with or figure out or discover how to break
through and create new solution or the challenges or the problem.
And instead of problem, I like to say challenge. So
so if you hear me say challenge more than problem,
(16:32):
that is the reason why. So when you're in that
energy and you really want to find a creative solution,
what one of the things that can really stop you
is the fear is fear factor, and fear can shut
you down because if you start saying I can't And
we were talking about this before, like last week or
(16:55):
the week before, about stopping yourself from being that authentic you.
And when you say to yourself, I can't do this,
or I can't make this happen, or I can never
paint a picture, and there's a part of you. Let's
I'll give you an example there's a part of you
(17:18):
that may be a painter. But and you've always wanted
to paint or maybe draw, and you always had that desire.
Now I believe that that desire somehow is coming from
a calling of your soul. Now this is a majority
(17:38):
of the time, am I saying? This? Isn't all of
the time. No, but a lot of the time that
desire is coming from that deeper part of you. And
then what happens is you feel the fear or the
self doubt and you say to yourself, no, I can't.
I'm just I don't have it in I just don't
(18:01):
have the talent to be a painter like poo or
you know, think of any famous painter. Okay, so you
may not be a painter like Picasso or any of
the other famous artists or painters bn goh or I'm
trying to think of painters right now anyway, So you
(18:21):
don't need to be You're not meant to be like them.
You And this is about every single aspect of your
creative process. You are meant to be you and your
creations are not meant to be like other people's creations.
(18:42):
So when you start feeling fear like oh, I can't
do this or I'll never measure up. That competitive that
comparison and the comparing and the competition that shuts you down.
And I really want you to know that that Michelangelo,
(19:03):
thank you, missy. I was trying to think of other painters.
Michelangelo is a great example. You don't have to be
a Michaelangelo. You're not meant to me. You are meant
to be you. And if you have a sense like
you want to paint or draw, you need to find
a way to allow yourself to express that creative desire.
(19:27):
Maybe try a class. And but it's the fear and
the doubt. The fear and the doubt will shut you down.
And so please start reframing the fear and the doubt
and start thinking differently. So so fear and doubt perfectionism, Ah,
(19:52):
this is a this is a real creative failer. If
you think you you have to get it right or
be perfect, and it has to be a perfect creation.
So whether it's a piece of art, or whether a music,
or whether a cooking thing, or whether it's your life
or a relationship or something you're working on manifesting, there
(20:16):
is no perfection. Let it be what it is, and
perfectionism shuts you down. And if you think that you
need to be perfect, you don't. You just need to
be you, and you need to share and allow yourself
to share and express and be authentically you. So stop
(20:41):
trying to be perfect. And then you want to understand. Okay,
so there's techniques and things that you can say to
yourself to turn it around, but you also want to
want to understand where those creative blocks came from. Now,
(21:02):
this is what I talk about, like when I'm talking
about your past, and that's the subconscious, Because when you're
in the fear or the perfectionism or the self doubt,
ask yourself, where did this begin? Or what made me
start to doubt myself as a creator or what made
(21:25):
me start to doubt myself period? And then allow yourself
to see if you can go back to a time,
to a time and a place and imagine redoing it. Now,
your imagination is key in the creative process. Your imagination
(21:47):
is what makes us different than the animal kingdom. It's
what makes us different and unique as human beings. And
so tapping in to your imagination and allowing yourself to
redo the scene and re create new beliefs. So for example,
(22:16):
I'm going to give you an example so that it
will help you. So let's let's take perfectionism. So let's say,
and I'm going to create a story. Okay, I'm being creative.
I am going to create I'm going to create a name,
and I'm going to create a story. To give you
an example, let's say we have Carly. Okay, Carly. Now,
(22:40):
Carly wanted to really open up her creativity. She knew
that she was creative and she wanted to become even
more creative. She knew that there were there were things
that she was meant to express, but she felt she
had to be perfect, and so Carly shut it down.
(23:06):
And when she thought about being creative, she felt so blocked.
She just felt numb. She you know, tapping into that,
it was just like there was nothing there. She felt
like an empty shell. And what she was saying to
herself the belief was if I'm not perfect, I'm not
(23:32):
going to be loved. I'm not going to be loved.
And the reason why she believed that is when she
was growing up, her mother was very critical, Carly, do this, Carlie,
you better get She would bring home a b and
Carlie would Carlie would bring home a B or B
(23:53):
plus or an AUS and her mother would say, why
didn't you get an A or an A plus? Who
told you? Why can't you be perfect? And so her
mother had these really high expectations for her, and so
what happened was Carley began to internalize I have to
be perfect because if I'm not perfect, I'm not going
(24:16):
to be loved. I'll never be good enough. So if
you grew up with a critical parent, so it could
be a mother, it could be a father, it could
be a caretaker, it could be the school, a teacher,
anybody could have affected you through the years, and you
started to take it on if I'm not perfect maybe,
(24:37):
and sometimes that's related to if I'm not perfect, I'm
going to fail, so why bother try it? That's another
thing that's common. And I'm getting these things from people
that I'd worked with through the years and so know that.
So what happened was Collie and I would work together
and we worked on helping her to parent herself because
(25:02):
she had the critical voice of her mother telling her
she had to be perfect, and there was a lot
of fear in there too, and self doubt because anytime
she came up with an idea or anything, she started
shutting herself down. And as we work together, she started
(25:23):
and as she started healing and replaying and redoing her
past and becoming more present. Instead of dealing with her
past and her trauma and what her mom said, she
started reparenting herself and telling herself new things like I
(25:45):
am perfect as I am, or I am who I am,
and I am loved for who I am, I am
good enough as I am, and my creation are good
enough or I my creation are an expression of my
unique self. And all those affirmations, all those things are
(26:10):
ways to reaffirm those old beliefs. Now, I really believe
that having those new beliefs is really an important piece
of the process. But you also want to do the
deeper healing so that you can clear those old energies
to help you to move forward in that energy of
(26:31):
ease and flow. All right, So, and I am going
to talk a little bit about another way that you
can get into the creative flow by my meditation that
I created. See, I created it for you, and the
meditation is it is it's the intuitive decision making meditation,
(26:58):
and that meditation can help you get into that creative flow,
can help you problem solve all the stuff because you're
tapping into intuition. And when you're tapping into your intuition,
you're tapping into the energy of your unlimited self, your potential.
And so you want to and what in the meditation
(27:21):
we talk about clearing, connecting with your higher self so
that you can really feel more of who you are.
And then you want to move and listen for the
communication that your higher self is bringing you. So go
(27:44):
to Inspired and Empowered Living dot com Forward slash Meditation
and the eed it a t I O N so
the name of the show Inspired and Empowered Living dot
com Forward slash Meditation and Rebel just put it up
(28:08):
on the screen for those of you who are viewing
and for those of you who are listening, go to
Inspired and Empowered Living dot com Forward slash Meditation and
also you can get a download a PDF and it's
now in the chat as well. So definitely you want
(28:34):
to have the meditation or the PDF that can really
help you tap more into that creative flow. It can
be one of your first steps to help you get there. So,
so a another practical tool for you is and being
(28:54):
able to break through the barriers is the five second rule.
So when doubt creeps in, and here's the thing, and
I can't even begin to tell you how many people
I have worked with, including myself, that you'll get an idea,
a creative idea. You'll get an inspiration because God, Angels,
(29:20):
universe is constantly inspiring us and empowering us. That's what
inspired empowered living is all about. Who will get You
can get like an inspiration or an intuitive hit, and
all of a sudden you'll be like nope, you start doubting.
(29:40):
And so instead of going into the doubt and going loack,
getting locked into the doubt, what you want to do
is you want to count down. This is the five
second rule of counting down five four three two on
(30:00):
take in action a positive action. Okay, Now, what I
mean by a positive action is you want to do
something that's going to help with the inspiration and empowerment.
You do not want to do anything destructive. Destructive actions
are not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about an
inspired action where let's say you had an idea all
(30:24):
of a sudden to pick up a piece of paper
or a journal and start writing and just writing. And
you start writing, so after the five seconds, instead of
going into the doubt, just write. Or maybe it's making
a creation of cooking or a painting or drawing, or
(30:46):
playing a piece of music an instrument. Stopped outing after
the five seconds and just doing let the creative process,
let yourself be inspired, and that can help you to
get back into the flow of the creative process. And
(31:06):
here's the thing, the bottom line is is that when
you are shut down, when you allow those fears or
the doubts or the lack of the limitation to stop you,
you are hurting yourself. And I really want to support
(31:27):
all of you in knowing that you can do it,
that each and every one of you can overcome and
the words that are coming to me overcome the impossible
and make it possible when you get into that creative process. Now,
another way that you can get into the creative process
(31:48):
like a creative problem solving. So another way is if
before you go to bed at night and you think
about the problem or the challenge, the challenge that you
have that you want to overcome, and you're going to
ask and you can call in your higher self. You
(32:09):
can call in your soul. You can call in God
or higher power or the universe. You can call in
your angels and guides and beings of light, and you're
going to call them in and you're going to ask,
help me solve this problem, help me solve this challenging
(32:29):
this challenge in a new creative way, a way that
I could have never ever thought of before. And you
may need to do it a few nights in a row,
or you may get up the first night or the
first morning and all of a sudden, all of a sudden,
you get an idea. Now, I really want to support you.
If you get an idea that sounds totally out of
(32:51):
the blow, write it down and ask yourself, how can
I make this idea happen? And then I'm going to
support you in brainstorming. You know, when you're doing brainstorming,
you don't shut anything down. You just write and you
just let the energy flow. Brainstorming is actually a creative
(33:12):
process of allowing possibilities to flow. And so just allow
that to happen. And so know that you can allow
yourself to be in that process, and you may keep
asking until you get a solution that feels right to you.
(33:35):
You may get several solutions, maybe you need to try
different ones. And so that's what I really want to
support all of you in doing, is being open to
possibilities that you may not have been open to before.
And so in a we really just talked about breaking
(33:58):
through the barriers, and there's so much more I want
to talk to you about the creative process and creativity
because it is how you live your life. It's all
about becoming more inspired and empowered when you're in that
creative flow, when you're in creative freedom, that you are
(34:20):
tapping into your unlimited potential. And that's what I want
for all of you. And so we're going to continue
this discussion, and of course you can always ask your questions.
You know, I love your questions. That we're going to
continue this next week from more inspired and empowered living
(34:42):
and the creative process, creative freedom and unlocking your unlimited
potential and allow yourself to be in possibility. And I'd
love to hear what happened over the course of the
week if any of you were able to open perhaps
more to the creative process or your creative flow. So
(35:06):

TV dot com W four wn dot com, my YouTube channel,

So at the end of last show, all of a sudden,
(02:26):
I got the download I got like all of a sudden,
I got the hit that we needed to talk creativity.
Like last show, we were talking about your authentic self
and being your authentic self and learning to really tap
into it. And when you are in that energy of creation,
(02:47):
when you're in the energy of creativity, you are being
your authentic self and creativity and learning to tap into
that creative flow is crucial and essential for a thriving
life and business. In order to create your life and
(03:11):
create the abundance, the health, the relationships that you want,
whether it's your life or your business, tapping into creation
and being creative is going to be a game changer
for you. So stay tuned because we're talking all about
(03:34):
creativity and we have Anastasia who asks are we all
able to be creative? So Anathasia, very interesting that you
ask that question. The truth of the matter is every
single human being on this planet, we are all creating
(03:56):
all the time. Now, the key here is to become
a conscious creator and to be able to create from
that place of consciousness and really clarity and knowing what
it is you want to create and allow that energy
of creativity to flow through you. And so yes, we
(04:19):
are all creating all the time. Now that what I'm
feeling is I need to give my psych one oh
one lesson. So we're all on the same page. And
I see your question, Mickey, and I'll get to it shortly.
So your conscious mind, now, your conscious mind may come
(04:40):
up with an idea or you think about something you
want in your life. Because when you're working on manifesting
or when you are being creative, like allowing yourself to
create a cook cooking is creative. Can be a creative process. Painting, drawing, writing,
(05:02):
those are examples of the creative process. But we are
creating our life. Manifesting is a creative processing. Manifesting the
life you want is a creative process. So what happens
is you think about what you want. That's your conscious
mind making a very clear conscious decision, this is what
(05:24):
I want. However, your subconscious mind, from the moment you
were to conceive to present time, has recorded every moment
that you've been alive, and so there are limiting beliefs
and emotions that will block that creative flow that will
block you from being able to allow yourself to be
(05:48):
in the energy of creation. And so your job is
to understand what are those.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Subconscious block what are the limiting belief and what are
the emotions that would be blocking my creative law or
my creativity.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
And then you have your super conscious mind. And when
you have when you're in that creative flow, you are connected.
You are connected to and with your super conscious mind.
It's you being and feeling and sensing your higher self.
It is you being, feeling and sensing your soul because
(06:31):
you are in the energy of creation. And yes, you
are creating all the time, Anastasia. So everyone is able
to be creative. Now there are people who tend to
be may be more creative than others. Okay, everyone is
able to be creative, So let's just make that very clear.
(06:55):
And yes, there are some people that can be more
creative in certain areas. But I also want you all
to realize that you, each of you, is really unique
unto yourself and that you need to find and I
really want to support you in finding your creative genius.
(07:17):
What is it that you love to do that is
easy for you but not easy for someone else? So
something to think about is really getting in touch with
how your creative genius and yes, you all have it.
You all have a creative genius because that's the gifts
(07:43):
that you have come in with on a soul level.
Those are the things that you're really good at that
someone else isn't and sometimes you may not even realize
that you're good at it. And so that's what I
want to have you think about and explore during the show,
is what am I really good at that maybe other
(08:06):
people aren't. Start being opening to possibilities of creativity that
maybe you haven't been open to before. I invite you
all to be open to those possibilities. Okay, And then
we have Nicky who asks where can our creativity take us? Micky,
(08:28):
our creativity is it's it is when we're in that
creative creative space. It takes us to unlimited places and
spaces and abilities, and we can creatively problem solve and
see things and feel things and know things in different
(08:50):
ways that that normally when we're not in that creative process,
we may not be in touch with And so you'll
create is in each one of you. I want you
really to understand that your creativity is unique unto you. Yes,
there is an energy and a flow of the creative process. Yes,
(09:13):
there is an energy and flow to creativity and you
all have it. And it's about feeling, finding your zone
and being able to be in that energy. And everyone
has it and everyone can do that. Excuse me, I
don't know. I was going to sneeze and then it
did come out. Okay. So yes, So creativity can take
(09:40):
us to unlimited our unlimited potential, and that is the
power of tapping into your creative energy and your creativity. Okay,
excuse me, my allergy is a bother me, so please
bear with me. Okay. And and as always, you know,
I answering your questions. So if there's more questions that
(10:02):
come up as I'm answering, or anything else that comes up,
please feel free to ask away Misty's question. Can you
talk about the different types of creativity and how people
can use them in their life? Please? Okay, So different
types of creativity. So I talked about the energy that
(10:28):
we're all manifestors. We are all creative because we are
actually manifesting our lives, and sometimes it's conscious and a
lot of times it's not conscious. And the more that
you work on clearing those limiting beliefs and the emotions.
The more conscious you can become to create and manifest
(10:52):
what you want in your life. So you have that
type of creativity, and then you have creativity. You can creativity.
You can be creative in problem solving. So let's say
you have a problem and you cannot from I think Einstein,
(11:14):
all right, and I may not be quoting this directly,
but it's something. The quote is something like, if you
think that you can solve your problem from the same
state of consciousness that it came from, that's the definition
of insanity. But you can solve your problems when you
(11:40):
open to creativity. And so creative problem solving is another
form of creativity. And then you have creative process or creation.
People who are creative. And every single one of you
(12:00):
has something I bet you do that's creative that you
may not even define as creative, but you're creating. So
I mentioned before cooking. I know that when I'm cooking,
I can be a very creative person. And when I'm cooking,
I like to mix this spice or that spice. I'll,
(12:23):
you know, I'll just kind of get in the creative
energy and I'm in cooking mode and that my food
comes out and it's a creation. Or artists are creating
their art musicians creating their music, writers are creating their writing,
(12:45):
and you may be in creation. There may be some
artistic form that wants to come through. But I also
realized that the work that I do as a healer,
when I'm working with a client and I am in
the energy, and I am in the energy of presence,
(13:07):
because part of the creative process is being present. You're
in that energy of presence and you're allowing the energy
of your sourceness, your creative you're that super conscious mind
to come through your higher self, your soul. And when
you're in that energy, when you're in that energy, you
(13:32):
like So when I'm with my clients, I'll get ideas.
So when you're in that creative energy, ideas come through
your intuition. I really believe intuition and creativity are they're
they're like this. You can't separate them out because when
you're in the creative process, all of a sudden, you
(13:54):
may get an intuitive hit or an idea like in AHA,
that is intuition and coming through the creative process. So
when you're in the that energy. So as a healer,
you can be in healing mode and you're in the
creative process when you're at work. Maybe you're at work
(14:17):
or are you Anything can be a creation. Being, a
parent being, having a relationship, doing a specific job or task,
or anything can become a creative process. So, Misty, I
hope that answered your question. And again, if you had
(14:39):
any any other questions around what I just said, let
me know. So anything can be a creative process. Really,
and how do you know you're in the creative process?
You know that you're in a creative process when I
really the best way for me to describe it is
your in this energy of flow, your things just happen
(15:04):
easily or And also know that when you're in the
creative process and when you're tapping into your intuition or
you're in your creative genius, that's also the energy of
magic and miracles. That's when the magic and miracles can
happen for you in your life and in your business.
(15:26):
So that is the power of tapping into your creative
flow and allowing that energy of creation to flow. It's
really exciting and it's very powerful. So let's talk about
what would block you from being in that energy and
(15:48):
that energy of flow. Well, blocks are fear. So if
you feel if you feel fear that let's say there's something.
Let's say Okay, coming back to problem solving, because we
all have problems or challenges that we need to overcome
in our life and our business. So we're going to
(16:11):
have situations or challenges that we need to get in
touch with or figure out or discover how to break
through and create new solution or the challenges or the problem.
And instead of problem, I like to say challenge. So
so if you hear me say challenge more than problem,
(16:32):
that is the reason why. So when you're in that
energy and you really want to find a creative solution,
what one of the things that can really stop you
is the fear is fear factor, and fear can shut
you down because if you start saying I can't And
we were talking about this before, like last week or
(16:55):
the week before, about stopping yourself from being that authentic you.
And when you say to yourself, I can't do this,
or I can't make this happen, or I can never
paint a picture, and there's a part of you. Let's
I'll give you an example there's a part of you
(17:18):
that may be a painter. But and you've always wanted
to paint or maybe draw, and you always had that desire.
Now I believe that that desire somehow is coming from
a calling of your soul. Now this is a majority
(17:38):
of the time, am I saying? This? Isn't all of
the time. No, but a lot of the time that
desire is coming from that deeper part of you. And
then what happens is you feel the fear or the
self doubt and you say to yourself, no, I can't.
I'm just I don't have it in I just don't
(18:01):
have the talent to be a painter like poo or
you know, think of any famous painter. Okay, so you
may not be a painter like Picasso or any of
the other famous artists or painters bn goh or I'm
trying to think of painters right now anyway, So you
(18:21):
don't need to be You're not meant to be like them.
You And this is about every single aspect of your
creative process. You are meant to be you and your
creations are not meant to be like other people's creations.
(18:42):
So when you start feeling fear like oh, I can't
do this or I'll never measure up. That competitive that
comparison and the comparing and the competition that shuts you down.
And I really want you to know that that Michelangelo,
(19:03):
thank you, missy. I was trying to think of other painters.
Michelangelo is a great example. You don't have to be
a Michaelangelo. You're not meant to me. You are meant
to be you. And if you have a sense like
you want to paint or draw, you need to find
a way to allow yourself to express that creative desire.
(19:27):
Maybe try a class. And but it's the fear and
the doubt. The fear and the doubt will shut you down.
And so please start reframing the fear and the doubt
and start thinking differently. So so fear and doubt perfectionism, Ah,
(19:52):
this is a this is a real creative failer. If
you think you you have to get it right or
be perfect, and it has to be a perfect creation.
So whether it's a piece of art, or whether a music,
or whether a cooking thing, or whether it's your life
or a relationship or something you're working on manifesting, there
(20:16):
is no perfection. Let it be what it is, and
perfectionism shuts you down. And if you think that you
need to be perfect, you don't. You just need to
be you, and you need to share and allow yourself
to share and express and be authentically you. So stop
(20:41):
trying to be perfect. And then you want to understand. Okay,
so there's techniques and things that you can say to
yourself to turn it around, but you also want to
want to understand where those creative blocks came from. Now,
(21:02):
this is what I talk about, like when I'm talking
about your past, and that's the subconscious, Because when you're
in the fear or the perfectionism or the self doubt,
ask yourself, where did this begin? Or what made me
start to doubt myself as a creator or what made
(21:25):
me start to doubt myself period? And then allow yourself
to see if you can go back to a time,
to a time and a place and imagine redoing it. Now,
your imagination is key in the creative process. Your imagination
(21:47):
is what makes us different than the animal kingdom. It's
what makes us different and unique as human beings. And
so tapping in to your imagination and allowing yourself to
redo the scene and re create new beliefs. So for example,
(22:16):
I'm going to give you an example so that it
will help you. So let's let's take perfectionism. So let's say,
and I'm going to create a story. Okay, I'm being creative.
I am going to create I'm going to create a name,
and I'm going to create a story. To give you
an example, let's say we have Carly. Okay, Carly. Now,
(22:40):
Carly wanted to really open up her creativity. She knew
that she was creative and she wanted to become even
more creative. She knew that there were there were things
that she was meant to express, but she felt she
had to be perfect, and so Carly shut it down.
(23:06):
And when she thought about being creative, she felt so blocked.
She just felt numb. She you know, tapping into that,
it was just like there was nothing there. She felt
like an empty shell. And what she was saying to
herself the belief was if I'm not perfect, I'm not
(23:32):
going to be loved. I'm not going to be loved.
And the reason why she believed that is when she
was growing up, her mother was very critical, Carly, do this, Carlie,
you better get She would bring home a b and
Carlie would Carlie would bring home a B or B
(23:53):
plus or an AUS and her mother would say, why
didn't you get an A or an A plus? Who
told you? Why can't you be perfect? And so her
mother had these really high expectations for her, and so
what happened was Carley began to internalize I have to
be perfect because if I'm not perfect, I'm not going
(24:16):
to be loved. I'll never be good enough. So if
you grew up with a critical parent, so it could
be a mother, it could be a father, it could
be a caretaker, it could be the school, a teacher,
anybody could have affected you through the years, and you
started to take it on if I'm not perfect maybe,
(24:37):
and sometimes that's related to if I'm not perfect, I'm
going to fail, so why bother try it? That's another
thing that's common. And I'm getting these things from people
that I'd worked with through the years and so know that.
So what happened was Collie and I would work together
and we worked on helping her to parent herself because
(25:02):
she had the critical voice of her mother telling her
she had to be perfect, and there was a lot
of fear in there too, and self doubt because anytime
she came up with an idea or anything, she started
shutting herself down. And as we work together, she started
(25:23):
and as she started healing and replaying and redoing her
past and becoming more present. Instead of dealing with her
past and her trauma and what her mom said, she
started reparenting herself and telling herself new things like I
(25:45):
am perfect as I am, or I am who I am,
and I am loved for who I am, I am
good enough as I am, and my creation are good
enough or I my creation are an expression of my
unique self. And all those affirmations, all those things are
(26:10):
ways to reaffirm those old beliefs. Now, I really believe
that having those new beliefs is really an important piece
of the process. But you also want to do the
deeper healing so that you can clear those old energies
to help you to move forward in that energy of
(26:31):
ease and flow. All right, So, and I am going
to talk a little bit about another way that you
can get into the creative flow by my meditation that
I created. See, I created it for you, and the
meditation is it is it's the intuitive decision making meditation,
(26:58):
and that meditation can help you get into that creative flow,
can help you problem solve all the stuff because you're
tapping into intuition. And when you're tapping into your intuition,
you're tapping into the energy of your unlimited self, your potential.
And so you want to and what in the meditation
(27:21):
we talk about clearing, connecting with your higher self so
that you can really feel more of who you are.
And then you want to move and listen for the
communication that your higher self is bringing you. So go
(27:44):
to Inspired and Empowered Living dot com Forward slash Meditation
and the eed it a t I O N so
the name of the show Inspired and Empowered Living dot
com Forward slash Meditation and Rebel just put it up
(28:08):
on the screen for those of you who are viewing
and for those of you who are listening, go to
Inspired and Empowered Living dot com Forward slash Meditation and
also you can get a download a PDF and it's
now in the chat as well. So definitely you want
(28:34):
to have the meditation or the PDF that can really
help you tap more into that creative flow. It can
be one of your first steps to help you get there. So,
so a another practical tool for you is and being
(28:54):
able to break through the barriers is the five second rule.
So when doubt creeps in, and here's the thing, and
I can't even begin to tell you how many people
I have worked with, including myself, that you'll get an idea,
a creative idea. You'll get an inspiration because God, Angels,
(29:20):
universe is constantly inspiring us and empowering us. That's what
inspired empowered living is all about. Who will get You
can get like an inspiration or an intuitive hit, and
all of a sudden you'll be like nope, you start doubting.
(29:40):
And so instead of going into the doubt and going loack,
getting locked into the doubt, what you want to do
is you want to count down. This is the five
second rule of counting down five four three two on
(30:00):
take in action a positive action. Okay, Now, what I
mean by a positive action is you want to do
something that's going to help with the inspiration and empowerment.
You do not want to do anything destructive. Destructive actions
are not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about an
inspired action where let's say you had an idea all
(30:24):
of a sudden to pick up a piece of paper
or a journal and start writing and just writing. And
you start writing, so after the five seconds, instead of
going into the doubt, just write. Or maybe it's making
a creation of cooking or a painting or drawing, or
(30:46):
playing a piece of music an instrument. Stopped outing after
the five seconds and just doing let the creative process,
let yourself be inspired, and that can help you to
get back into the flow of the creative process. And
(31:06):
here's the thing, the bottom line is is that when
you are shut down, when you allow those fears or
the doubts or the lack of the limitation to stop you,
you are hurting yourself. And I really want to support
(31:27):
all of you in knowing that you can do it,
that each and every one of you can overcome and
the words that are coming to me overcome the impossible
and make it possible when you get into that creative process. Now,
another way that you can get into the creative process
(31:48):
like a creative problem solving. So another way is if
before you go to bed at night and you think
about the problem or the challenge, the challenge that you
have that you want to overcome, and you're going to
ask and you can call in your higher self. You
(32:09):
can call in your soul. You can call in God
or higher power or the universe. You can call in
your angels and guides and beings of light, and you're
going to call them in and you're going to ask,
help me solve this problem, help me solve this challenging
(32:29):
this challenge in a new creative way, a way that
I could have never ever thought of before. And you
may need to do it a few nights in a row,
or you may get up the first night or the
first morning and all of a sudden, all of a sudden,
you get an idea. Now, I really want to support you.
If you get an idea that sounds totally out of
(32:51):
the blow, write it down and ask yourself, how can
I make this idea happen? And then I'm going to
support you in brainstorming. You know, when you're doing brainstorming,
you don't shut anything down. You just write and you
just let the energy flow. Brainstorming is actually a creative
(33:12):
process of allowing possibilities to flow. And so just allow
that to happen. And so know that you can allow
yourself to be in that process, and you may keep
asking until you get a solution that feels right to you.
(33:35):
You may get several solutions, maybe you need to try
different ones. And so that's what I really want to
support all of you in doing, is being open to
possibilities that you may not have been open to before.
And so in a we really just talked about breaking
(33:58):
through the barriers, and there's so much more I want
to talk to you about the creative process and creativity
because it is how you live your life. It's all
about becoming more inspired and empowered when you're in that
creative flow, when you're in creative freedom, that you are
(34:20):
tapping into your unlimited potential. And that's what I want
for all of you. And so we're going to continue
this discussion, and of course you can always ask your questions.
You know, I love your questions. That we're going to
continue this next week from more inspired and empowered living
(34:42):
and the creative process, creative freedom and unlocking your unlimited
potential and allow yourself to be in possibility. And I'd
love to hear what happened over the course of the
week if any of you were able to open perhaps
more to the creative process or your creative flow. So

join me next Thursday at five pm Eastern on talkfor
TV dot com W four wn dot com, my YouTube channel,
