Kristin Morrison encourages Becky to unleash her creativity and let her wild horse run.
Kristin and Becky take a deep breath together before starting their coaching session.
Kristin and Becky reflect on their long-time connection and take a moment to appreciate the journey they are about to embark on.
Becky is an artist who has been on a spiritual path for the past 10 years and has been exploring ways to express her creativity.
She started with photography and then moved on to painting, falling in love with it and wanting to create a business around art.
Becky has been successful at selling a few paintings through the Marsha Evans Gallery in Columbus, but has found it challenging to put herself out there.
She feels at home in nature and wants to convey that feeling through her art, even though she currently lives in the city.
Becky feels like she must be putting off a scarcity or some kind of lower frequency because she's not able to move her art like she'd like. The first painting Becky sold in the art gallery was a chickadee, and the second was a challenging painting of persimmons in a bowl.
Becky feels that authenticity needs to come through in her artwork and that she needs to feel really safe to be truly authentic. Becky grew up in a very loving and supportive home, but there was an underlying message that children were to be seen and not heard, which might be showing up as an adult.
Becky struggles with finding her own authentic style because she can paint realism, impressionism, abstract, and gets confused about what's really authentic to her.
Authenticity is a very important value for Becky, and she appreciates people who are authentic.
Becky's mother was formally educated in art, and Becky felt like she didn't have the background to put herself out there as an artist.
Becky had a challenging experience when she first declared herself as an artist in front of her mother, but over time, they found healing through painting together.
Becky's exploration of different painting styles and her eclectic mix of art reflects her authentic self.
Kristin suggests that Becky should cultivate a relationship with her paintings after they've been created, treating them as live entities and having a dialogue with them.
Becky connects with her inner child and realizes the importance of painting in nature and expressing her inner light through her art.
When you don't muzzle yourself, tap down like what wants to emerge when you let it emerge as it is through this conversation here with the wise old soul, little girl, the light, connecting with the light.
It's like holding a horse back, you know, and then letting it run. To be playful, to explore and to have fun.
She is really a wise little person. Yeah, so even though she's small and young, she's got a lot of wisdom.
It doesn't mean everything's going to be puppy dogs and rainbows, you know, because there are going to be people who are going to have a hard time.
Becky uses a figure eight visualization for breath work, imagining the light going up and down the eight as she inhales and exhales.
Kristin advocates for breath work and uses it before coaching calls to get out of her own way.
Kristin advises Becky to write down the insights she receives during active imagination, as it can feel like a dream and important details may be forgotten.
Kristin Morrison emphasizes the importance of following the directions given and honoring the three directives provided by the wise old soul girl.
Morrison encourages Becky to explore and play with the nonverbal communication experienced, referring to it as the language of the soul.
Becky acknowledges the need for discipline in writing three pages every morning and Morrison suggests setting a timer to establish boundaries and unleash creativity without editing or critiquing.
Authenticity serves as a guiding light, akin to a North Star, providing a sense of direction and purpose.
Engaging in acts of imagination is driven by the desire for tangible and solid foundations, creating a bridge to tap into the wisdom inherent in our souls.
Expressing gratitude for the wisdom shared by the older, wiser part of ourselves that guides us.
When feeling surrounded by a loving presence, it may lead to a natural increase in the value of one's paintings or effortless sales.
Reconnecting with the carefree nature of childhood can be encouraged, allowing one to escape adult worries.
Embracing the feeling of being a little girl can create a sense of being present in the moment, detached from the rest of the world.
Acknowledging the presence of a nurturing inner self is not only okay but fantastic.
Encouragement to take gentle care of oneself, including spending time in nature or simply appreciating the beauty around.
The reminder that self-love is deserved and important.
