When you find something is upsetting you, how do you react? If things don’t work out the way you want them to, do you get angry? Then do you become so stuck you become sore? Or do you shake off the unconstructive and negative feelings?
My mother tried to instill in both my siblings and me the importance of knowing how to step out of a stressful situation so we can respond with compassion and unconditional love.
There were many ways she suggested to accomplish this, though the main way for me was and continues to be through humor. My trainer thought I was a natural born clown. She encouraged this behavior because she saw it was helpful for de-stressing Nancy. Over time I have seen how my shenanigans helped Nancy and others break into laughter and move from being sore to being connected with their authentic self and soar. Several of my siblings preferred to respond in a different way, but being a clown has always been and continues to be my favorite way of converting stress into positive restorative moments.
Nancy once told me that according to recent research, every thought, word, or action we have affects our biology. Negative thoughts and stressful situations can have a negative impact on our health and make it almost impossible to thrive. On the other hand, a positive response to life can have a positive effect on our biology. You always have the ability to choose.
If you would like some help finding or remembering the best way for you to move from being sore to being filled with joy and soaring,
I suggest you explore the I Create What I Believe (ICWIB) program where my friend Luke will demonstrate the ICWIB activities and/or attend the FREE Drawing in the Now classes that are taught by Nancy Marie over Zoom the first and third Monday of the month from 4:30 pm-5:00 pm PST.

In a recent interview Dr. Bruce Lipton said, “…Freedom is the ability to create without the limitation of generational programming. The I Create What I Believe! (ICWIB!) Program is a gateway and a pathway into a new and better future because it allows children and (adults) to fully express themselves and to not be limited by the beliefs that have been passed down from generation to generation. This program also frees up children’s and (adults’) minds and allows their creative nature to create a better world for all of us, which is what we need right now!”
