A Turning Point...

What does this book have to do with living a creative life? Knowledge and the unleashing of creative energy.

Four years ago (actually its really 15+ years but that is a story for another day) I had a goal to live a healthier life because I wanted a body that could support me in achieving my creative dreams. This year when I brainstormed my Ease-filled Stepping Stones, one goal regarding my health was to learn more about food health and menopause. I wanted to move my creative life forward without my health being an obstacle. 

At the end of January I received a medical test result that was the jolt I needed to finally move the dial to full blast, choosing a louder healthier creative life rather than the quite life of an ill artist. 

This choice was at my turning point. It was the change of direction I had been waiting for, looking for. For a few weeks now I have made some small achievable changes to my life and one of them includes gathering new knowledge by reading Fast Like A Girl by Dr. Mindy Pelz. 

Applying this new health information has given me more energy to live my creative life. I have the energy to write, plan and create instead of feeling exhausted and limb heavy. I have a clearer mind that helps me listen to my intuition and make intentional choices. I am able to move along my stepping stones with more ease.
