This week’s exercises kind of made me laugh just because 1. creating a wonderful smell is a little too apt of a job for a perfumer and 2. everything is a little harder scheduled around a move. I’m not even sure when/how I’ll be able to do my artist’s date – apparently I signed up [...]
I’m going to preface this by saying that in my path to creating a sense of abundance, I really have to undo a lot of messages embedded into my being about scarcity. This was a highly volatile week, and on top of it, I’m stressed out over a move where Mike and I must take [...]
My artist’s date was a haphazard affair, in part because my plan A, to lay out somewhere and look at clouds, was met with oppressive humidity and an absence of a blanket that I’d be OK throwing on the ground. I love my area parks, but I know what goes on in them: I’m not [...]

I haven’t been blogging much this week because the exercises involved aren’t exactly out of my way. Most of it involves purging excess or working with what you already have. I’m moving, so guess what I’ve been doing from the get-go? It’s all about visualizing my new space AND moving out as much of my [...]

Julia Cameron was right, this week will be volatile. Not only am I hitting deep psychological issues, there are unforeseen consequences because of the decade plus of magic and energy work. I’m an energy sensitive, and this is really making me do something about that. The Money Beliefs Exercise People with money are entitled jerks. [...]
I’m hoping to be a bit more on-the-ball this week; looking back over last week I had a LOT going on, some of which is directly and indirectly relevant to the work I’m doing here. Morning Pages 7 out of 7. I agree with the assessment that there is a page and a half truth [...]

My favorite excuse not to create is what I call the “gottas.” I always have a long list of obligations and projects, and in an effort to get out of the “hard” work, I choose the least creative option – data entry, mind numbing coding, adding endless widgets to my blog… and if that doesn’t [...]
I gave in to an unusual compulsion to have my Artist’s Date be music-related. Given that music was a source of torture and a huge block to my genuine creative desires, I was surprised at the direction to do so, but beyond pleased with the results. Also, I’m still doing quite well budget wise: so [...]
Chapter 5 Exercise: If I were 20 and I had money: Given my cirumstances at 20, I have a pretty good idea what my 20 year old self would have done, much to my family’s chagrin. My parents were proactively out of touch with modern college life, and their values about it crippled me in [...]
