All the arts we practice are apprenticeship.

The big art is our life.

- M.C. Richards

“Live in your fullness” is an exhortation.

It is an impassioned encouragement to no longer live small, but to live instead in vibrant fullness; to integrate all the various facets of our selves; to live in wholeness and alignment with who we truly are and who we wish to become.

One of the most powerful tools for self-discovery and exploration is creative expression.

I am convinced we are wired to create.

Creative activity is transformational. It is health-balancing, mood altering, life-affirming, and empowering.

When we engage in creative activity, we tap into a universal energy - something larger than ourselves - which swirls throughout the natural world. In the creative flow, we can step outside of our day-to-day existence and ride a satiating wave of focus and vitality.

My intention with LIYF is to share some “tools for creative wellness” that have been transformative for me with the hope that you find benefit as well.

As you explore this site, may you discover more facets of your remarkable self - and may you feel free to Live in Your Fullness.
