“You say you recognize me,” says the first customer of the day. “You think your drawing’s good enough?”

“Maybe not the hair… but… what do you want here anyways? Can’t you just ‘assume’ your way to anything?”

“Wouldn’t do much good if any feeling of abundance you assumed caused your body to brace for impending doom.”

Why did I even open today? “Are you talking about you, or me?” I ask.

“Which one of us is hiding out in their ego store still trying to figure out what they won’t be too scared to sell?”

“Touché, Mr. Goddard, touché.”

When every breath is a life lived, your Home Creative Frequency is only ever a breath away. Surrender time – when has it ever cut you a break anyway? – and take the incredible risk of just… being. (Hence the magic of a Be Creative Hunt real-time creativity treasure/scavenger hunt, but we’ll save that one.) I popped-up a The Cymbria Store out of sheer habit and willpower (was sooo not in the mood — don’t ask) with the intention of only taking the first pic. Then, OK, sit down, OK, draw something, OK, smell something OK… Breath by breath, I began to allow myself to do the story. Suddenly, I’m giggling, squatting in the reeds having an intimate tactile tryst!

Presence is freedom. Slowly, sloooowly, my body is learning how to believe these words. I’m not teaching; I’m just allowing my most natural and innate chemical permissions to reveal themselves. Curious about yours? Breathe into your Home Creative Frequency, do the story, and dare a playful life!

Your Home Creative Frequency is worth fighting for, to find, to honour, to protect. Creativity is a birthright, and to “dare a playful life” is a both a rebellion and an audacious act of self-care. Play can be defined as “testing possibilities from a low-stress internal environment,” so getting your system in tune with the big ol’ universe is square one. You exist, so there’s gonna be resistance (literally, figuratively, whatever…). We are bound by our brain/body’s chemical permissions, until we realize the true power we have to adapt, accommodate, and regenerate — the three keys to a successful system — beyond our patterning and neural mapping.

But what to do with this responsibility? This freedom? As we holistically bring our systems back more into alignment with our core creative essence, our home frequency/energy/vibration of grateful, aware, wholeness, just trust love! Open your heart and quiet your mind. Breathe into your Home Creative Frequency with a Triple Gratitude Breath power charged physiological sigh, and go out on a Be Creative Hunt (real-time creativity scavenger/treasure hunt) to test it out… But still sometimes my gut clenches, my breath catches. Ask yourself the question, “How did my body learn it wasn’t safe to play?” Then, when you’ve opened yourself to the answer, you can begin to train a new set of chemical permissions. And you’ll realize the answer never really mattered, just your movement through it… and the play space begins to move with you. Do the story!

A Be Creative Hunt is a real-time creativity treasure hunt as a safe place space for creative freedom and exploration with an ever adapting scavenger hunt list of creative moments and expressions. But of course you need a lil danger to get the juices flowing! The safety comes from breathing into your Home Creative Frequency: a self-state of low internal stress from which creativity can flow and actualize most efficiently/effectively — brainwave patterns and energy vibrations of mind/body/spirit are balanced and open to play, love, and discovery.

The permission to be wholly yourself is a decadence of unspeakable grace. And yes, it’s a dynamic balance so don’t get caught in perfection. And that’s what makes a Be Creative Hunt so much fun! It holds the three keys to a successful system (adaptation, accommodation, regeneration) and can be practiced anytime, anywhere. Because this kind of freedom really does take practice… and might just be the most generous gift you can give yourself this year.

So get out there and smell-where-you-are, take a Triple Gratitude Breath, do a Story-scan, and join The One Breath Story Club. Cat and mouse an idea you can exhale in one gloriously indulgent breath. “Because every breath is a life lived in and of itself.” Do the story — dare a playful life! Take pictures and sketch yourself into creative abundance. No rules, just pure play! Get back to your hunter-gatherer roots and risk the one thing that from which all else matters, being yourself.
