In this episode, Ariel talks about the power of the idea. “Which idea?” you ask, whichever idea will make a difference in your life. We’re going to branch out and get into some creativity development today!"23andMe to Showcase New Research at American Society of Human Genetics Meeting," 10/19/22. www.23andme.com 23andMe white paper on genetic research. https://permalinks.23andme.com/pdf/23_21-PRSMethodology_May2020.pdf Getting into creation mode:
First thing--especially when you are brainstorming your way out of a problem--release assigning blame! Blaming shuts down creativity faster than any other behaviour, in my experience. Don’t blame me! You can take responsibility--but move on from that.
Relax. Do something to get yourself out of stress. That could be getting a massage, exercising, receiving intimate touch, having a great meal, meditating, having a great conversation. Once you are out of a stress response, your mind can come up with alternative solutions.
Start imagining there is another way to come up with an answer, a solution, or solve a problem.
As ideas start coming to you, write them down, voice or video record them.
Don't edit ideas. Accept all of them.
Once you get some ideas, sort through them, re-combine or re-organize them until you find something that works.
Take a moment to appreciate the process!
Then take action with your idea! See what happens!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Have you ever had ideas that were life-changing? Maybe it was an incredible change in perception – something you’d been holding on to for decades suddenly released and you could look at everything else differently, which happens in healing sessions a lot. Ideas are really powerful, our perceptions of reality, how we think we can do things, what we think we’re capable of experiencing and what we think we can have.
One of the things I’ve seen with people is that when they change the way they think about their lives and the way they think about possibilities that could come to them, the way they think about what they’re available to do, what they’re capable of doing, then they start having other experiences in their lives.
How do you recognise a great idea? I experience a great idea internally is something that lights me up, makes me feel excited and helps me feel open. These are all energetic qualities. I associate those feelings as having that connection with a flow, which is the term I use when the energy is moving in a synchronous fashion, where things effortlessly work out, where you have an idea that flows to another idea. If you’re in touch with this kind of sensation, openness or inspiration when you have a great idea, with practice you can recognise it. When you feel that it’s one of the ways you know that there’s something in that idea which works, flows and it will take you to where you’re looking to go.
Being creative and idea-generating is an excellent way to problem solve because you’re in a solution-creation mindset. Which is expansive and resilient rather than limiting by complaining about problems and shutting them down. How can you get into that creative space? When you’re brainstorming your way out of a problem you have to release assigning blame, blaming shuts down creativity faster than any other behaviour. You need to just take responsibility and move on, don’t spend your time in negativity, it doesn’t open up ideas, operations or solutions. Move on from that by relaxing, you need to get out of a stress response in order for your brain to come up with creative solutions. Record your ideas and save them for later, don’t edit them just accept all of them, you can sort through them later. Take a moment to appreciate the process and what you’ve worked through, but then take action on your idea and see what happens.
BEST MOMENTS“Creativity is a superpower and one that can really help us work our way out of getting stuck.”“Going to museums, festivals or concerts is a great way to experience where people have taken their ideas and explored them.”“Ideas that were developed by science fiction writers have been developed into actual technology that are used in daily life, like the Apple Watch which comes from Dick Tracey comic books or flip cell phones from Star Trek.”“Trip planning is a whole experience unto itself and you have to be really creative sometimes to organise timetables and make everything work.”ABOUT THE HOSTAriel is a Licensed Massage Therapist, Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist, Reiki Master, Empath and Psychic who has been involved in holistic healing since 1988.
