The Architecture of Release: Sculpting with Kuumba

  The Architecture of Release: Sculpting with Kuumba https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-architecture-of-release-sculpting-with-kuumba--71087749 They’ve got us fooled into thinking that creativity means we have to constantly produce. Every day, the culture tells you to add another side hustle, learn another skill, put on another hat, and wear another mask. We are walking around exhausted, carrying a hundred pounds of "more." But what if Kuumba—true Creativity—isn't about painting on a blank canvas? What if it's about taking a chisel to the heavy, hardened stone of expectations and scraping off everything that isn't the real you? On today’s episode, we explore the Orange energy of Kuumba through the lens of subtraction. We aren’t building today. We are demolishing the false narratives of who we are supposed to be. Call to Inaction: “A tree does not grow by holding onto its dead leaves; it grows by letting them fall.” What mask of "strength" can you stop ...

Gratitude & Grace on the Journey

Image
On this Journey it is important that we begin to show gratitude for all the blessings that we receive. This is a challenge in a world that seems to want to help you find all that is wrong in your life. Let us take a closer look at this thing gratitude and then talk about an exercise that can help you in finding those bright spots. I know that many of you may think that there are no bright spots, but trust me they are there. Through my research and even more importantly my experience I have learned that the human mind and brain are tools to be used in life. We can train them to seek out certain things in the world. If you chose to seek out things to be grateful for you will find them. Without going into the complicated science of the brain, and what we know of the mind these tools have been shaped by evolution (if you prefer God) to seek out what we want from the world. This effect is the result of us descending from hunter gatherers in the past. Hunters had to be able to read signs,...

Starting Small Habits

"A journey of a thousand miles begin with one step", is a quote I often refer to when I feel like I am stuck. I often like to look at these words of wisdom, but sometimes I forget the power of these words. Not only does a journey of a thousand miles begin with 1 step, but so does a a short trip to the corner store. All of life's action begin with a small step. When we think about it any major change that we make in life starts with small steps or better yet by creating small habits that enable us to use the power of leverage and momentum to move us to where we want to be. My recent studies have led me to looking at quantum physics, and from looking at this amazing science, I can clearly see the power of the small. We often overlook the power of the small, bu many of us have experienced this power in our personal life, both negatively and positively. For example if you have ever experienced the bite off the cold or flu virus you know what i am talking about. This s...
