Baba’s Station, NY

There are so many reasons to give thanks today. I have finally made a major change in my life over the last couple weeks. I’ve mentioned a few times, here and privately in the Crealitation Community, that I am journeying through a painful “Independency Portal” these days. What does traveling through an Independency Portal mean? It means that through my Crealitation practice I’ve discovered my greatest difficulty. Dependence. I’ve been a committed detective in my own life. I’ve had my magnifying glass out. No stone has gone unturned and thank God, the Universe, the University (or whatever you want to call it), I’ve finally discovered that I’ve been dependent and co-dependent on certain kinds of people and things for as long as I can remember. In response to this discovery, I’ve decided that my gift to myself for my 40th birthday (this Summer) is to be Independent of anything that doesn’t bring me pure joy. I’m now in the process of letting go of the dependencies that most bother me, one by one. This is fun, challenging, and liberating beyond belief. It kind of feels like ripping off old Band-Aids, hard at first and then deliciously empowering, ah to let my emotional skin breathe! So, I’m starting with the number one dependency in my life. Being in business with my husband just isn’t fun. It hasn’t been for a long time and I’ve been very dependent on him for organizing all my media and administrative work. This is a sticky, relentless, pattern handed down to me from my mother and father, and from my grandfather and grandmother too. It’s been an uphill paddle since we started and I’ve finally accepted that it just doesn’t work. This is truly my time for a Spring rebirth and for Baba to have his own business (and for me to have my own again). Thank you Crealitation! Using this method, I’ve found my greatest difficulty and so my magic. I’d rather be a happy husband and wife team (and great parents to our wonderful Louise) while working happily with other people who I don’t sleep with. No more business partners in bed, no more mixing power struggles with love relationships. There, I said it. Wow. What a big step, to declare that out loud to you. Thank you for listening.

Baba at Winter Maple Syrup Station That Brought Him So Much Joy This Year.

Baba at his desk. Thank you Baba for working with me all these years and thank you for remembering it’s time to let go of that role and crealitate your dreams.

Many changes are being made as a result of this letting go. Stay tuned and I’ll share more with you next week. In the meantime, the above Crealitation shot is from my Baba’s Crealitation Journal and to the left is a shot from mine. Together, we’re helping each other rise above the noise. Thank you Baba for being a wonderful Crealitation Teammate and for knowing when it’s time to crealitate a real change.

More soon…

Topaz’s Station, MA

There’s a saying that I hold close to my center when I’m feeling overwhelmed by life. If you’ve been journeying with me on this road for a while, then you’ve heard me say it before.  I repeat it here again today as I’m in bed with a cold that has me behind on my work and has had Louise and Baba in bed all week too. Life is messy, love the mess.

My Crealitated Art Farm

Creating reality is a wonderful ride but sometimes, it can get scary. It requires the courage to dream and it can be like you’re walking a tight rope in clogs. The ease can turn into an edgy dream out of nowhere and suddenly we forget that the illusion is our healer. But… if we stop long enough to get in tune, to be at peace with our own mess, we can remember the truth about Lucid Living and find the magic of our difficulty. That’s one of the most important practices of Crealitation. How do we stay tuned and practice Lucid Living? Gratitude. No matter what kind of mess has covered us up and made us forget that we’re possibility incarnate,  if we give thanks for the gifts we have, more gifts will come soon. We must tune into who we really are to crealitate who we want to be. Above is my friend and assistant Topaz’s station by the way.

Professor Tundra disappeared one night and in order to call him back, I remembered his return as if it had already happened, a Crealitation Practice. My future memory served me well. I remembered us camping out on the front porch and him coming back. And so it was.

Kristin’s Station, MA

This week, I am once again, too fully engrossed in excavating the Mythology I’m writing to write here much at all. I am so busy mining my own computer and staying on my prescribed crealitation schedule that I can only drop a brief note to say how much I love you, and life. It is key to my crealitation success that I stick to my schedule, though it is much easier said than done at this point. My crealitation schedule allows me to live my dream curriculum. This is how I create and harvest my work at the art farm. This work has been in gestation for over  a decade and it’s time for me to give birth to it fully. Thank you for my health, this dreamy life, this old farm house, my supporters, and all the fears that challenge me to be more present in the Now. Thank you to Kristin and Topaz, my studio assistants (and crealitation teammates) for helping me uncover the story that is meant to be told.  We’ve had a great couple days of collaboration here at the art farm. Then, Baba made grilled cheese sandwiches and salad today as we all discussed the news of Boston’s trouble.

Even in the face of challenging national news, it feels wonderful to be fulfilling my current assignment today. Above is Kristin’s Station by the way. Beautiful! It reminds me to remember the power of my own commitment.  This blog is about practicing the art of creating reality by the way. Crealitation is a way of being awake in the world and leaning into your pain, loving the process of being human.

There is only one thing I can say. Today, I am too deep in my mythology work to write more than just a few words and post a couple photos.  I am deep in it right now. Below is my station shot from this morning. More soon… L

Caroline’s Station, MA

This image of my friend Caroline’s Crealitation Station reminds me to take the time to breathe and study who I am. When we breathe, journal and feed our brain with inspirational work daily, we’re happier people. Thank you for sharing the image Caroline. Meanwhile, I’m sitting here in my studio, surrounded by research notebooks, books, and stacks of papers covered in doodles and notes about how to play Crealitation. What is your gift? How do you live your bliss? Who is Guiding you? The questions are scribbled across papers and filling journal after journal in the room. There are maps and charts and diagrams all over the place and plenty more information still stuck inside my head. I think of myself as a transmedia storyteller and a musical mythologist.

We are all welcome to find peace.

Camp Now is where I am writing from right now. It is our new “Art Farm” in the Hudson Valley. My husband Baba and I used Crealitation to manifest this place. Now we live on and own these beautiful five acres. We bought our little Art Farm this past November and have been settling in since. We are also crealitating our brand new content creation company called Camp Now Productions and have manifested enough investment to begin taking our company to the next level.

I have a story in my heart. It can effect positive change in the world. It came to me in a dream and I’ve been working with variations of the story for the last ten years. I’m now, finally “crealitating” the opportunity for myself to have nothing to do except sit down and complete that story by my birthday.

Crealitation Evidence, In Search of Gratitude Assignment

So, here I am, sitting at my grandfather’s desk. A painted portrait of my old Cattle Dog, Dharma, stares at me, as if to say firmly, “it’s time to finish Book One now.”

Today’s Crealitation Shot

As you can see to the left, his portrait sits on my desk and stares at me. Now that Spring is coming, I can finally plant his ashes. I have been carrying them with me since March of 2010. I swore I would not let them become one with the earth until I finally crealitated the home of my dreams. And here I am, living in the home of my dreams, my own Little House On The Prairie.

My favorite TV show growing up was Little House On The Prairie. Have you ever watched it?

I am so thankful I finally have a place to bury Dharma and grow the Dharma Tree. I wish I had time to tell you all about Dharma Dog and how he guided me to find this home but I only have time to give thanks for this perfect mess of my wonderful life, past, present and future. I can hear “Free To Be You And Me” playing downstairs. Louise is wandering around being the Little Guru that she is. She’s wearing her pig pajamas and entertaining herself beautifully while her dad and I get a bunch of work done. I want to go play with her but it’s my crealitation homework to finish this letter by 3:30 and I know it is important that I stay in close communication with you.

From Sabrina’s Crealitation Station, MA

I have hundreds of Journals I have kept over the last 15 years since I started practicing Crealitation. They are full of wonderful evidence about my life process. After all these years of coaching people and transforming my own life using Crealitation, I have decided to go public with my process. The creating reality game curriculum is called Crealitation, Course One: The Magic of Difficulty and it is designed to remind you who you really are. You are not alone and Crealitation helps you find your Gift and fulfill your Potential in this lifetime.

Baba and I on our recently crealitated romantic weekend getaway

This past Winter, Baba and I started arguing more than usual. Maybe we had Cabin Fever or maybe it was just time for us to go to a new level and we had to break through the storm to find the sun. We kept “triggering each other” which means we’d each, unintentionally, cause the other to feel bad about themselves. It is the nature of the human condition to want to spread itself via making people feel bad about themselves, so, of course, naturally, the other would then lash out to get rid of the conditional feeling. We kept falling into the trap, what we call “worm holes,” and wasting precious time and energy being mad.

From my Crealitation Journal a few weeks ago

Now, here’s what I did and it worked like a charm. Every time Baba made me mad, instead of reacting, I whipped out my Crealitation Journal and wrote down what Baba, or anyone, was doing to make me mad. I can’t tell you how awesome that tactic is! Seriously. We hardly ever argue anymore.  In using this technique, it’s not that we don’t talk about what happened later. We do. Later, when I know the coast is clear and we’re nowhere near a worm hole, I may open up my Research and talk to him about what happened earlier. Or, I may not. I may just reread what happened to myself and realize how happy I am that I didn’t waste my time and energy on that head trip that no longer matters to me.

My Little Guru teaching on the importance of Kissing the Sky

Try not to lose site of the 4th dimension.

Beneath are a couple shots of my station in action, as well as a couple of shots of my Little Guru, Louise Dharma-Moon. (By the way, in Crealitation we are asked to learn from our Children in fun ways). For example, she is now teaching me to listen to Jimi Hendrix, a CD she dug out of our old collection a couple weeks ago. She guides me to rock out with her by the fire every morning before work.

Evidence of My Exercize to Exorcize Crealitation Assignment

I wish I could show you the funny little video of my Louise eating cereal in pink monkey pajamas while singing her favorite Hendrix song, but I’m not allowed to use it re copyright infringement. By the way, at just under two years old, my Little Guru already has her own Crealitation Journal too, which is super cool because I get to keep her doodles in a sacred place and someday I’ll have a collection of her journals to show her.

Speaking of which, I hear her calling. Excuse me, I need to go hang with my Guru and kiss the sky.

Patrick’s Crealitation Station, South Dakota

My name is Lizzie West.  I’ve been practicing the art of creating reality for a long time now, since I was about seven years old. Feeling out of control as a kid gave me a seemingly unquenchable thirst for peace. As an adult I now choose to take actions that allow me to live in a state of excited calm, so I can quench that thirst and be in a constant state of appreciation. How thankful I am for my birth family’s mess of addiction. The mess they worked with has led me to seek out a creating reality method that allows me to become fulfilled. I call this method and mindfulness practice Crealitation.

It is my favorite hour of day. I just completed my morning Crealitation Station Time, which brings me a great sense of peace. I now write to you from my beloved studio on the second floor of our old farmhouse on Railroad Lane. The current Camp Now Art Farm has a red roof, a big front porch, a smoking chimney, and several acres of snowy hills.

In this blog I am publically sharing the process of crealitating my life. I am creating, and taking, Crealitation Course One: The Magic of Difficulty. It is a course that helps us define our gifts and share them with the world.  Crealitation gives us tools to help us transform our human condition into our gifts.

My crealitated Transmedia Team, Baba, Topaz and Kristin at the Art Farm

We’re all the main characters of our lives and the detectives of our own human stories. We go in search of our pain so that we can transform that pain into peace, for the good of ourselves, and the world. We find our dependencies so they can turn them into Crealitation Tools. More about all that later. We’re all in this predicament together. The quicker we do the work necessary to liberate ourselves from the trappings brought on by our human condition, the sooner we’ll remember how to “in*Habit” our bodies and enjoy the rest of our lives to the fullest. May we all fulfill our potential and help others do the same.

Toril’s Crealitation Station, Norway

Welcome to The Magic of Difficulty, my ongoing adventures in creating reality. Tonight I begin a whole new book of my life. I’m so thankful to be here with you. Here I am sitting in my beloved writing studio, on a snowy March evening. I’m living in my Dream home and everything is just like I remembered it would be. The snow is falling, Julie Andrews is singing “Go To Sleep” from the Mary Poppins movie that’s trickling in from Louise’s TV set in the other room. (That TV is a machine she inherited from her grandmother who is her namesake by the way). The musical VHS tape was left here for her by the previous owners of this new home, a wonderful farmhouse we bought this past November. We now live on five grassy acres of upstate NY land with maple trees all around us, enough to feed our family and friends miracle water for a year.

Professor Tundra on the Art of Purring

My big white cat, Professor Tundra, is lying on the bed purring in my studio. He guides me to be slow. My husband Baba is downstairs cooking Mexican food after a long day in the home office. Later he’ll help me put Louise to bed and work into the night making Maple Syrup. I call our home the Art Farm and two days a week, a team shows up here to help me harvest and manage my work. This story is about how I “crealitated” and continue to “crealitate” my dreams. It’s about being an artist, a mom and Crealitator. What is a crealitator? It’s someone who is creating their own reality. If you don’t create your reality, your reality will create you. Those of you who know my work know I’ve been saying that for a long time now. I write to remind you that you’re not alone. We’re all in the same boat, healing from this human condition.

That’s why I’am right now, in the process of creating and doing my own course, Crealitation Course One: The Magic of Difficulty. I am slowly inviting you to join me. For the past couple months I’ve invited a few curious friends to play with me via email invitation and it’s gone very well so far.

At the top of this letter is a shot from one of those friends in Norway. Thank you for sharing Toril, it was just the shot I needed to see today. Below is a shot of my “Little Guru” as I call her in Crealitation. Today she taught me to love potato chips and not to take myself too seriously. Thank you Louise.

My Little Guru, Feb 2013

I now go in search of The Magic of Difficulty. As I understand it to be, in order to find my Magic, I have to find The Magic of My Difficulty first. So, below are a few shots from my Crealitation Station (a bliss station) this week. My Crealitation Station is the place where I excavate the journey of my soul. My Crealitation Assignment this week was to start writing this blog and here we are. Thank you for being here with me as I document the ins and outs of crealitating my life and all the projects that follow.

PS: By the way, in my Crealitation Time yesterday, I remembered something that Baba told me when we first met fell in love 8 years ago, “life is too short to worry about the things we have no control over.” That helped a lot back then and it helps me even more today.
