Your Life Purpose, The Universe, and Bare Faced Truth.

September 3, 2021 / Clive Austin

Want a short answer about how to find your life purpose? Try this one out for size:

Be the bright and vibrant (or subtle) colour that you are now, because in all probability, it may all end in beige.

Too cryptic for you?

By all accounts if and when the energy contained in the universe peters out in universal heat death, what remains of it will just be something that is just inert, and, by some accounts, beige in colour.

Whether or not this is an accurate prediction is a matter I happily leave to theoretical physicists, cosmologists, and metaphysicians.

The poet in me knows that, despite the accuracy of the theory, there is an allegorical value in it all the same. It echoes something of the reality of life as I see it.

Leaning into Life and Remaining in Balance

August 30, 2021 / Clive Austin

One of the central themes of ©Live Creative is the idea that, to a significant degree, you can create your life, or at least elements of it. It also acknowledges that the essence of life, as it flows through you, is creating you. That these are two sides of the same process.

In part, how we meet life, and how we respond to the ways that life meets us, is what leads us to certain quality of experience.

Food & Life: Relating as the Exchange of Information

August 10, 2021 / Clive Austin

The actual act of living is way to complex to reduce it to simple formulas and words. And yet, here we are.

Relating, adapting, and creating.

How we relate to the world, to ourselves, and to those we share the world with is fundamental to what events and experiences shape our lives.

It is a very useful frame to have when looking at how one might go about changing things for the better. You could do a lot worse than to start with the following three questions:

Think Yourself Happy – The Dangers of Positive Thinking

June 8, 2021 / Clive Austin

There are limits to how far a single piece of advice might be of help when it comes to changing life for the better.

This should be fairly self evident, and yet the internet is rife with suggestions like the one that all you need to do to change your life is to change your vibration. The idea that by changing how you think and how you feel then the material world will somehow fall into alignment around you.

The thing is that this is not necessarily wrong or even bad advice. Changing how you think, and being present with your feelings is not bad advice, it’s just that for some people, it’s not enough.

In fact, for some people, for whom the issues are so deep beneath the surface, or so close to their face, such advice may even be harmful.

What is an Artist? One Who Lives the Truth of their Soul.

June 4, 2021 / Clive Austin

It’s a line I’ve heard all my life.

“Well let’s hope you get somewhere with it.”

“What do you mean?” I ask.

“Well let’s hope you make some money out of it.” She said.

A light goes on. Finally, I see the situation with more clarity than I ever have before.

Are You Around 28 to 30 Years Old and Feel Like You’ve Hit a Speed Bump?

May 29, 2021 / Clive Austin

Firstly, You’re NOT alone.

The degree to which the events and qualities of life that are experienced here on planet Earth are in any way connected, either causally, or as a correspondence with the heavily bodies, is, for me at least, always going to be an interesting question.

A Practical Approach to Self Hypnosis

May 28, 2021 / Clive Austin

What you feed yourself in food, in thought, in word, and in deed, becomes you.

In the same way that your diet effects your body, the language you use and the thoughts you have influence your psyche – your psyche being the sum total of your conscious and unconscious, mental and emotional life. Your Soul if you like, which, I would like to add is not the counterpart to your body, but rather, the flip side of it.

You may have heard me use the allegory that consciousness, and, by extension, life, as being like standing on a shore between two great oceans; one within and one without.

How we adapt and alter our external environments, when we create our world in such a way as to invite us to participate in ways that shift our perceptions and perspective about life, what might be the results?
