In her last newsletter she inspired me to write this blog, in a way that I could give myself permission for it to be good enough and have the courage to do that. I am pretty busy at the moment, not too overwhelmed (articles coming about that soon) and wanted to write at least something that was short but ok, so here goes.
Quote from the book - "Traditional methods of prayer and meditation have been elusive for me in the past ... For me; painting in my meditation. It is my gift from Spirit, a tool to help me as I journey down all the roadways in this life ... toward the joyful discovery of who I am really am." - Jeanne Prom.
I feel that this resonates with me. I am not a writer, a painter, a sculpture, an artist but we are all absolutely creative in many ways. My creativity I believe is through my passions of occupational therapy, creativity coaching and soon counselling, supporting others to connect to who they are, give themselves permission to be and soar. I do this more and more through creativity, creativity coaching and narrative.
I have been exploring myself more many, many years for lots of reasons. In latter years to get to play with creative modalities. Just love, in heaven for me. I am so curious and intrigued what this road trip will reveal.
I wondered if you noticed anything in the quote that sparked a thought for you. How would it feel to write about it, draw it, create symbols or not and just notice how you feel.
A writing prompt if you wish ...
If I was planning for a road trip, what 3 things would I take and why. Have fun.
High Five!

Yay! Tickled pink to have inspired you to write and post this! Way cool.
Hmmm...fun prompt too. Three things that I would take on a road trip:
- Loads of great music to listen to - because in my work when I'm writing, brainstorming and coaching I don't get to listen to music (singing the words which I can't help get in the way!)
- Perhaps a permission slip to go off the beaten path at least once during my trip in hopes of discovering an entirely new and unexpected experience.
- Lots of water and healthy snacks to balance out the inevitable "fun" road trip food that I would indulge in sooner or later. :)
All the best from my creative oasis to yours Liz,
Jill
