Conscious Creator Letter

Happy Holidays!

Are you experiencing the duality of December:

On one hand, “it is the most wonderful time of the year and

On the other hand, you are feeling stressed, overwhelmed and irritated?

You are in the holiday spirit - shopping, socializing, preparing, finishing, running around.

You hear the song: “It is the most wonderful time of the year!

This time you are Awake to the words of the song and to your feelings about this holiday time. It does not feel like the most wonderful time of the year to you because you feel stressed, overwhelmed, irritated, and resentful. Stop right here and congratulate yourself for being awake to the gap between how you want to feel and how you wish you felt during this “wonderful time of the year”.

Awareness is the first step to creating what you want!

It is important to stop and celebrate your wakening because if you do not, you will most likely react to the gap out of your default state, which is judging yourself. When you judge yourself, you get stuck in the pattern and keep repeating what you’ve always done in the past. It is a cycle of living by default.

Let’s transition from creating by default to creating consciously.

I believe that you are a powerful creator and when you step in the identity of a conscious creator, you can exercise one of your most important gifts - a gift of a conscious choice.

Ready to play out your conscious creation cycle?

Apply the following steps to help you feel empowered about creating the holiday experience that you actually want to experience.

  1. Ask, “What am I gaining from my awakening of seeing the gap?” vs “Why is it happening to me again?”
  2. Who am I being during this holiday? Who do I want to be?
  3. How do I feel? How do I want to feel?
  4. How can I navigate my day to day so I live in alignment of who I choose to be and how I choose to feel during this holiday time?
  5. What would be fun to create today? What would be easy to create today?

One of my coaches likes to say that “the quality of your life depends on the quality of the questions you ask”. As you answer the questions above, notice how your experience of this holiday time is unfolding daily.

Afterall, who makes this holiday time stressful or easeful?

It is you and not your circumstances!

You are always creating, either by default or consciously.

Conscious creation helps you be in your power vs being a victim.

If you cannot change your circumstances, you can change how you think about them, which in turn changes your experience of them.

As Viktor E. Frankl said in Man's Search for Meaning:

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

The choice is yours, conscious creator!

You can choose to be soulfully ambitious, peacefully productive and joyfully active during this holiday time! Yes, the duality does not have to be a reflection of two extremes.

The duality can coexist!

It is a wonderful time of the year to say goodbye and thank 2023 for all that you experienced.

With Love,

Conscious Creation
