Accessing Your Creative Energy
These meditations/visualizations are designed for creative people, writers, artists, performers and anyone else who wishes to gain greater access to their true self, the source of their creative energy. This is for those who are seeking ways to keep their creativity flowing. These meditations are here for you to use for yourself or share with a friend. If you intend to use them as a teaching tool, Id like to know. I am available for designing personalized meditations for individuals and groups. And I cant resist a bit of a sales pitch here. My Zaddack Tales series (click here to go to novels page) has similar tools buried within the stories, so if youre in the mood for an easy read while you unknowingly absorb more information, check them out.

In the beginning
Accessing your true creative self requires little effort. You already know how to do this though you may not think you do. You can spend one minute or one hour, whatever feels right. The specific images mentioned here are only suggestions. If something else pops into your head, use it. There is no right and no wrong, only energy. If something here doesnt feel good to you, dont use it. Take only what works for you and discard the rest. Above all else, enjoy yourself and smile, for there is no better place from which to access creative energy than from a space of no effort.
Meditation Strategy 2 Releasing Fear
Fear blocks the doors to true creative self. Most of us spend a great deal of energy keeping that fear piled up because were afraid to let it go and become our true selves. This is because the manifestation of our creativity is unique and once we set it loose we will be different than anyone else. In a society where fitting in seems to count, we contort ourselves constantly to blend in. But then were not living OUR true life; were living someone elses (like your moms or dads). Were not doing what we were born to do share our own unique creative gifts with the universe and beyond. The challenge then is, without judgment, to permit yourself your own unique expression while allowing others their unique expression and finding joy in the differentness in each of us.
So, how do you open the door to true creative self? How do you stop living according to others expectations?
Imagine you have an energy system, like blood, flowing through your body and around it. Pick a color that feels good to you and let your energy be that color. Just know that is it.
From that special place in the center of your head, ask yourself where in your body you have fear thats blocking access to your true creative self. Accept whatever answer you get. Your fingernail. Your heart. Your hair. Your butt. If you dont get an answer, make one up. (If at any point you find yourself getting spaced out, when you come back to yourself just continue where you left off). Now, give the fear a name like Barticus Smelnick. Something that makes you smile. Give the fear a body and a face, humanize it. If you keep seeing a monster keep changing it back into a person. Dress it in a way that amuses you. Tutu. Tap shoes and striped knee socks. Whatever. Next, imagine yourself walking up to that fear thats residing in your kneecap or wherever, and shaking its hand. Notice the door behind the fear. Then simply, gently, move this funny guy/gal aside or poof her away with a special magic spell.
Then open the door to a place of radiant, abundant creative energy. This can be whatever color, whatever form. This energy is you your creative energy. Imagine the door dissolving and the energy spilling forth and filling your body.
Repeat this meditation if you want and search for other fears, other doors.
This meditation is one way to start accessing your true creative self. Enjoy.
