To date, for me, 2012 has been the start of a creative phase.  For those of you who check out my Facebook page, you will have seen my first attempts at using pastels.  I’ve also had the urge to write more poetry of which I’ve blogged one poem and have written more and will post them when I feel the urge.

I have decided that after being a tad pigheaded over 2011 and not listening to my inner guidance as much as I should, I’m going to do it completely for 2012!  My main problem is not slowing down and I kept getting the message and even after a friend told me to slow down when I had a reading with him – did I listen?  Noooo.  Instead I had to have a hysterectomy where I couldn’t physically do anything for six weeks!!  Did I listen?  Noooo.  I kept on going on and was doing readings within two weeks of my operation!

Exhaustion was happening again, did I listen?  Noooo.  So what happened at the end of 2011?  A car accident, where I was hit from behind, and am now suffering badly from whiplash, which is incredibly frustrating for me because I’m a fast healer, but not this time!

So, am I listening? YES!!  I AM!!!  I am still doing readings, because I love doing them but am pacing myself and spreading them out more, I just can’t sit and do readings back to back for hours at the moment.  I’m making sure I lie down throughout the day to rest my neck.

Most importantly I’m giving myself time to do whatever it is I want to do to just chill out.  At this point it’s poetry and pastel drawing, seeing if I can do it via copying photos for instance and then giving ‘freelance’ a go, to just let my inspiration take over and see what comes out.

I’m wanting to move into my own premises and know what I want and what I can afford and have put it out there to the universe and I’ll listen to what they say, if nothing crops up, then it’s not the time to move and I won’t jump into something I’m not 100% comfortable with.

So, I am starting the new creative phase of my journey, I’m listening to my body and my inner guidance, as we all should and here’s to a healthy new year where Spirit won’t need to smack me over the back of the head!
