Creating Through the Chakras
If you're like most people, most likely you became aware of chakras in the late 80s with the beginning of the spirituality movement. Creativity and spirituality are deeply connected. Some say creativity is as close to God, the Source of All That Is, as you can get... this side of heaven, that is. Julia Cameron, in her book The Artist's Way, refers often to the creative spirit. One of my favorite quotes from her book is this one:
She refers, of course, to the connection and working relationship between an artist and the creative spirit. If you think you're not a creative artist, think again. Every moment of every day you're creating your life. How can you possibly get any more creative than that? You're experiencing the creative spiritual connection when you become so involved with whatever you're creating that the rest of the world fades away. You lose all track of time. You probably even forget when you last ate. Inspiration seems to just flow to you and through you. And so it does. Inspiration comes to you through your Crown Chakra. You see, your chakras are more than whirlygigs of energy all over your body. They're actually a very sophisticated system of exchanging information in the form of energy. For example, visions are received in the Third Eye Chakra. And as just mentioned, inspiration is received through your Crown Chakra. You can use your chakras for more than unconsciously receiving energy from other people and your environment, though. You can consciously use them for many purposes... including creating. Although there are lots of chakras all over your body, including in the palms of your hands and the soles of your feet, I'm going to talk about the seven main chakras... from your Crown Chakra at the top of your head to your Root Chakra at the base of your spine. Each of these chakras, or energy vortexes, are command central for a specific area in your life. I'll go through them one at a time and briefly describe their purpose relative to the creative process.
Now you know everything there is to know about chakras and their relationship to creativity. But... knowledge by itself has no value whatsoever. As long as knowledge stays in your head it's not serving anything or anyone. It's only when you put knowledge to work that has worth. Knowing about the chakras has little value until you put that knowledge to use. With that in mind, I've created a short visualization so that you can experience how you can use your chakras for creating.
Use your chakras anytime during the creative process to enhance inspiration, passion, vision and more. You'll find the flow of the entire process will be much smoother and easier, from beginning inspiration to final manifestation. Be creative with the energy of your chakras and discover the difference it can make. Love, ps. My brand new online class, Manifesting Through the Chakras, teaches you a unique method of using these powerful energy vortexes to manifest whatever you desire.
Discover the many benefits of attending a class online! If you'd like to learn more about spiritual and metaphysical things, there's no easier, simpler way than with an online class.

How can it get any better?!? Here's the list of these online classes in all their splendiforous glory:

If
a friend forwarded The Journal
of Spirited Coaching to you, 
As
you probably already know, chakras are vortexes of energy that reside
outside of your body and yet are connected to it, as in this image.
The
Crown Chakra is at the top of your head. This is where you
receive inspiration. I call it the creative channel. If you pay
attention to it when you're feeling particularly creative, you
may even sense it opening wider to allow more inspiration to flow
to you.
