As you have moved through the process of this book, you have faced many of your demons, released and transmuted old pain, and connected to a deeper sense of worth and inner knowing. By revealing more of these parts of yourself to the world at large, you impel others to do the same. The more each of us connects with our creative essence, the more freedom and joy we are capable of. Another way to say that is, by sharing your creative truth, you connect others to the truth within them. As each of us aligns with our creative essence, we are less likely to carry misery and spread it around the world.
By becoming more creative, compassionate beings, we come up with more ideas to change the current global status quo. We are less tolerant of dehumanizing groups based on socioeconomics, politics, or geographic locations. Unity begets unity. In this way, you are experiencing yoga and creativity as personal and global activism. You don’t have to become a banner-waving activist; the creative process you took through this book is enough. Now share it with others. Your authentic voice is important. We are listening.
Once we have learned about the obstacles in our own way, explored five paths for connecting beyond those blocks, and accepted our neurological heritage as embodied spirits, we can set to the task of living this life. Yoga for the Creative Soul is a book you can return to again and again through the rest of your life and—although your personal growth themes and karma will be similar—you will be different every time you come back. Throughout the book, I discussed underlying yoga therapy principles. Yoga therapy supports you in understanding your mind—the emotions, beliefs, perceptions, and choices that lead us to joy or despair. We are transformed by choosing our own perspectives and taking conscious, intentional action. Stay connected to your deep motivation. Follow these exercises and practices and get into a creative flow, then keep it up!
Thank you for sharing the journey and engaging with this book. I wish you much joy, freedom, and insight on this yogic path of connecting with your creative soul.
