← CHAPTER OVERVIEW

What would an ideal friendship look like for you?

Dear Creatrix,

How are you today?

Have you been thinking about your friendships and what you would like to change when it comes to the relationships you have with your current friends or friends you’d like to make?

Because we are going to start diving in today.

As this is the last day of the first week, and the first week is all about assessing what we like and don’t like about our current situation to find out what we want to keep and cultivate and what we are ready to let go of, we will take some time today to think about all the friendships we had in our lives so far.

Who stayed and who disappeared?

Who would you maybe like to reach out to again?

Or who are the people who might currently take up more space in your life, than you would like for them to take up?

And who is missing?

You know best what your situation is like, and what you need.

And then we can begin to think about why good friendships are so important for a fulfilling life.

In Chinese medicine, people are considered healthy when all areas of their life are running smoothly. This also includes a fulfilling social life. But this is not only true for Chinese Medicine.

When we look back at the Wheel of Life, which you might have filled in in the last chapter, we also see that the more all areas of our life are in balance, the more smoothly our life runs.

We can see the same in the Wheel of Colours, in other ancient wisdom traditions and in any holistic approach.

We each are the centre of the universe. Because our world, what we experience, the way we grow, evolves around each of us. We are the centre from where we see the world, from where we act and evolve.

But we are also one part of a whole – we don’t exist in a vacuum.

So our relationships influence our well-being.

The CREATRIX School is all about strengthening our core, our essence, growing our roots, getting familiar with who we are, how we work, our soul’s, our life’s purpose and how to live it – joyfully. And then to reach out and to connect with others.

In the Family chapter, we investigate our primary relationships, the ones we formed early in life with our parents and the ones we continue to hopefully nourish with the people we call family.

In the Relationships chapter, we talk about our intimate relationships, with one or more partners or lovers, or boyfriends, girlfriends and non-binary friends.

And in the Community chapter, we talk about a larger group of people we connect to, our community and our outreach to other people and how we can change the world together and on a bigger scale.

By forming a CREATRIX Crew of eight or so people in this chapter, and by getting clearer on what is important for us in our friendships, we will begin to form a steady base for our growth and development, but also for our joy and stability in life.

And for us to do this in the best possible way, we start by getting to know ourselves and our hopes, dreams and wishes better.

I’ve already asked you quite a few questions, and there are more coming, so be prepared. 🙂

In the last lesson, I asked you to start to imagine how you would love to be and what you would lo…

Ritual: Connecting without Recreational Drugs

Ritual: Connecting without Recreational Drugs

Let’s make new friends – while being sober.

Drinking alcohol seems like such a normal part of the lives of many. Just looking for stock photos of ‘friends’, it’s difficult to find pictures without alcoholic beverages in them.

We get offered free drinks at restaurants, and often people act as if you are insulting them, if you don’t choose to have a drink with them. But we don’t have to be an alcoholic to not want to drink. We may simply wish not to cause unnatural highs and lows, that don’t serve us.

Welcome to a New Chapter in the CREATRIX School

In this chapter, we are going to focus on the friendships in our lives and how we can make new friends, in any phase of our lives, and how we can grow and also heal with with our friends.

And we will start this chapter by asking ourselves some questions to find out where we are and where we would like to go in terms of friendships and true connection.

How can we overcome loneliness? 🩷

Let’s explore more of what we are wishing for and see how we can overcome loneliness – individually and collectively.

Because we do all need each other. Friendships can bring us closer to our shadows, and they can help us heal. More friends are not necessarily better than a few good ones – and in the end, it all boils down to what we really wish for.
What’s that for you?

How can we be a great friend?

In this lesson, I share a bit about my own story with friendships, and the different stages of letting go of my past.

And then from there we continue by thinking about what we would like to have in terms of friendship now.

What are your friendship roles?

We start this lesson again, by looking back at what has worked for us in the past when making new friends, to see if we can still use some of the same strategies and what we’s like to change when meeting new people now.

And then we also look at the different friendship archetypes to see how to make sure that we are covered in all areas when forming new friendships now.

What the Wheel of Colours can tell you about your needs when it comes to friendships

The Wheel of Colours can help us to understand ourselves better, and there are certain colours and fields that can help us with creating conscious friendships.

One of them is the colour white, which tells us in which are of our lives we need to the presence and connection to other people the most.

Why does it get easier when we self-actualize together?

All problems in our world can be solved by raising our consciousness.

Because the higher the consciousness, the more we realize we’re all one, and that we all benefit from rising together, from helping each other to thrive as our unique selves.

So, in today’s lesson, we are going to explore this and how we can support each other in practical ways.

How can we build conscious friendships?

In the last lesson, we opened up to the idea of creating a support system for ourselves, so we can thrive and grow supported by community.

Today, we will explore our values, to make sure that we will be supported in a way that aligns with our soul, and our unique needs and wishes.

How to set our intentions

Let’s look at how to set our intentions for ourselves and to support others with theirs.

Setting intentions and supporting others with theirs is a spiritual practice as well, as it can teach us how not to limit ourselves and others, and it can help us to act in non-judgemental loving and supportive ways.

Friendships – What’s mine? What’s yours?

Today we will have one final look at our friendships and get really clear on what is our responsibility and what isn’t – and when it’s time to be open to change with other people and when it might be wiser to move away from current friendships, relationships or other situations.

Becasue it can be difficult to move from the familiar to the unfamiliar – yet it’s worth it.
