51: Creativity Unleashed: Unencumber Your Creative Spirit

Do you want to unleash your creativity? I used to block myself from being creative. Now, I experience a mental freedom that allows me to express myself with less hesitation. We can plug up our creativity with perfectionism, judgements, and false beliefs about ourselves. Do you block your creative flow? More creativity leads to better solutions, connections, and abundance. If you want to unburden your creative spirit, listen to this episode of the Releasing Mental Tension Podcast. Coach Aila Coats joins me to discuss how to drop the blocks that get in the way of our natural expression. Read some of her inspiring words: “We place ourselves in creativity jail when we’re placing a grade on everything we're up to.” “It is a process of getting yourself off your mind.” “(Creativity) is a dialogue with the Universe.” “Can I tap into creative energy any time no matter what I’m thinking and see what happens?” Aila started meditating and studying spiritual texts when she was 12 and hasn’t stopped for the past 30 years. Her private practice includes teens, young adults and their families, as well as coaches, entrepreneurs and creatives. She runs a coaching school for professional coaches twice a year. Aila published a book in 2023 called Coaching Teens Well ~ A Way of Being with Teens and their Parents. Aila is passionate about supporting humans in remembering that they are not broken, but in fact are whole and complete and capable of moving through the world with peace of mind and freedom to create whatever it is that is in their hearts. When she’s not coaching or speaking to groups, she can be found running through the mountains and swimming in the rivers with her husband and three wild and wonderful children.

50: Discover Your Inner Power: Wisdom from Nakivale Refugee Camp

Discover Your Inner Power We all have access to an inner power that gives us innate resilience, strength, and love. We can innocently cover up this inner power with negative thinking. Then, addiction, fear, and worry fill our lives. Whenever we are thinking positive, God is always near us. Whenever we are thinking negative, we are chasing God away.” - Philips Tayebwa Join me for a conversation about happiness and love for oneself. In this episode, I bring on Philips Tayebwa, a 3 Principles practitioner working in Nakivale Refugee Camp in Western Uganda.

It shows that everyone has the inner power to live a harmonious life even in the most challenging circumstances, no exceptions. Just read some of Philips’s words: “You are sleeping in yourself.” “Happiness is inside us and free.” “If I share love, I have love. I receive love.” Philips Tayebwa is the CEO of Healing Health Healing Hearts, a 3 Principles psychotherapist, trauma rehabilitator, PDC trainer, and manager of 3 Principles Nakivale.

Learn to take aligned actions, stress less, and find innate joy. Do you struggle with your mental machine? You know you are taking your meaning making machine (thoughts) too seriously if you struggle with: decisions, stress, overwhelm, frustration, anxiety, unhappiness, and insecurity. If that sounds like you, listen to a conversation I had with coach Wendy Williams. Learn to release mental tension by approaching your mind in a new way. Relax into the way you were built. When you understand how your meaning making machine works, it completely changes your experience of life. You can move forward in a more informed way. Read these powerful quotes: “I've given up on the idea that i should have a lovely life 24/7” “I don’t need to move forward on every inclination I have. Feelings come and then they go.” “Am I working with the system as it is built or am I working against it?” “The mind has the same drive as the body to keep me in homeostasis. It will take care of itself.” Wendy is a lifelong learner, awake to opportunities to shine a light on all things wise and whole. A nurse educator specializing in psychological health, she always sees people's inner spark and capability. She is super happy to provide short term coaching to move things forward with kindness and humor for her clients. Wendy weaves together her background as a nurse with experience in cancer, HIV/AIDS, chronic pain and end of life. She knows, from experience, that everyone is made to live well and flourish.
