← CHAPTER OVERVIEW

How inner peace can help us to sleep well

Dear Creatrix,

How are you today?

Do you feel well-rested? Did you try some of the techniques yet, that make it easier to fall asleep at night? How did it go?

In the past few lessons, I’ve already mentioned the science of sleep and how there are certain things that we can do during the day to sleep better at night.

These involve food (and when and how we eat during the day), exercise, and how we can use temperature, design and lighting to create an environment which allows us to sleep well.

And we will go into more detail with some of these in the next two lessons.

We also looked at the different tools we can use to help us fall asleep at night (in the last lesson).

But there is one thing, that I believe, is most important to have when it comes to sleeping well.

And that is inner peace.

It seems to me that everybody is making this into something that’s very difficult to attain, when really, I think, it takes nothing but human decency.

When we think something is difficult, it is.

When we think that it is not, it is not.

So we might as well change the narrative here, today.

To live with inner peace is actually the easiest thing.

All you have to do for it is to stop lying to yourself and others.

And then to forgive yourself and all other people for everything, always.

Just imagine how easy and love filled your life would be if you did this.

Also, you can allow yourself to stop getting mixed up in other people’s business and only mind your own. (Really, this is the greatest relief in the world, at least it was for me)

And as an addition, you get to always be kind to yourself and all other people and beings.

If you mess up, you own your mistakes, apologize, learn and move on.

And every day, you do the best you can, simply by acting, knowing and being aware that the choices you make are based on what’s best for all – and not just to please your ego.

I am actually writing a book about how to put this into practice, and you are very much invited to read the introduction here and wait for the publication, if you’d like to familiarize yourself even more with the practice of living a joyful, peaceful and fulfilling life.

Because the more we practice this, the easier all of our lives get.

And you can really only win with this in every way.

Abraham Maslow, who came up with the concept of self-actualization and coaching as an alternative to psychotherapy, said that we have certain needs that have to be met, to develop fully and freely and shape the world around us creatively.

These include our Physiological needs (housing, food, water), Safety and Security (peace, freedom to move and express), Love and Belonging (friendships & family), Self-Esteem (ability to contribute and be respected) and Self-Actualization (to know and express in the best possible, most fulfilling & useful way).

As I see it, though, we often have to act from a place where we don’t have all these things.

In times of war, change and financial crises, security seems relatively unattainable, for example.

But even more general and in all times, life is uncertain and loss and death are immanent.

And so, to live with inner peace, authentically and to express creatively, we move from trying to control our circumstances to cultivating our inner security, certainty, trust and hope to be able to stand strong even in the face of uncertainty.

There is actually also a science of hope, which points out that hope is the most fundamental element we need to create change.

We need to be hopeful that we can actually feel better, if we want to change our lives.

We also need hope to think that we can actually step into the role of becoming the custodians of our planet (again) instead of exploiting it and destroying ourselves.

So, to trust that we can actually create the changes we need, and have hope for our future, and thus live with inner peace, as we feel we are contributing to this in the best possible way, we have to create a belief system that supports us in this and allows us to see that everything in this world is actually working in our favour – even if it might temporarily not seem this way.

So, today, in this lesson, I would like to invite you to come and explore with me, why there is hope, not only for humanity and our planet, but also why we have all the reasons to have a positive outlook on our future and how we can contribute in the best way, to create a peaceful future, not only for ourselves, but for all.

Ritual: How to Analyse Your Dreams

Analysing our dreams

Our dreams are a window into our subconscious, and analysing them and other messages we receive during the day can help us a lot to learn about ourselves, and what we really believe about something.

In this ritual, we will start using a dream journal and explore how we can change our perspective when thinking about and analysing our dreams so that we can learn and grow with them.

Let’s be grateful and practice our gratitude

Let’s be grateful and practice our gratitude

Why a gratitude Practice?

I think we’ve all heard, that knowing how to find balance, or inner peace, is the highest good in today’s world.

It’s actually valued higher than money because no money in the world can buy you inner peace.

Yet, we can all have it for free.

All we have to do for it is to stop trying to please others and just be ourselves and listen to our heart’s desires.

I feel extremely grateful that I figured out a way for myself to live in balance and experience inner peace, if not at all times, then at least at most times.

And I’d like to share with you, today, how you can have that as well.

Welcome to a New Chapter in the CREATRIX School

This will be so much fun!
Every chapter is my favourite chapter, but this one is extra special.

In this chapter, we are going to find out, how incredibly powerful we are, how we hold the answers to all questions within, and how even, or especially, our fears, can help us to explore our desires and help us to grow and come back to being our true selves.

Are you ready to become (almost) fearless? And to open up to the joys of life? And to experience the natural flow of life?

Then let’s go! 💖

Growth – Week 1 – Pt. 2

How would you like to grow?

In this lesson, we are diving into our desires and wishes and, most importantly, the questions we currently have about the world, our lives, and all there is.

Because this first week is about exploring where we are and getting to know ourselves better so that we can learn about in which direction we want to grow.

Growth – Week 1 – Pt. 3

Letting go of fear

Today, we start freeing ourselves from some of the baggage we’ve been carrying around with us. Because we wish to be free, right?

And freedom lies in the moment between a trigger and our reaction – when we learn to be able to choose our reaction, then we are free to be and live however we choose and wish to, and in this lesson I will show you an easy trick that can help with that.

The Spiritual Laws & The Law of Projection

In this lesson, we begin to learn about the Spiritual Laws and how they can help us.

And we also think about how often we don’t even know that we ‘re not well, because we’ve never actually been well, and see how we can choose the surrounding influences, and stop what actually harms us more than it serves us, to allow us to become ourselves and feel better, more and more.

The Basic Laws of Life

In this chapter we go deeper into exploring the basic laws of life and how they can help us to creating a solid basis for our lives.

Because as we’ve learned in the past week to move into new and unknown territory, which we always do when we grow, can bring us out of balance and if the ground on which we’re standing is shaky and insecure already it becomes much harder to dare to move forward, as we don#t want to add more insecurity if we are already insecure.

So the stronger the foundation we stand and build our lives on the easier it becomes for us to dare to grow and move beyond what we and previous generations might have thought possible for themselves.

Letting go of Resistance & Attachment

In this lesson, we explore resistance and attachment and how they keep us from making our dreams come true.

When we learn to relax and let go, we can allow for things to come to us.

It is a practice and can be really difficult. Because often we are much more used to trying to manipulate and influence things with our actions then actually being able to wait for things we desire to come to us.

THE LAWS OF CREATION

In this lesson, we explore the laws of creation because they are the basis for our lives as CREATRIXES.

We learn a bit more about manifestation, how the laws of clarity and intention can help us and see what it means to be in the FLOW of life and what’s blocks it.

Are you ready to create your life?
