  • Summary

  • Hi everyone. We are delighted that you have connected with us in the Art of Life Podcast. – a podcast that explores Life in a new way. We explore Life – not in terms of our physical and emotional experiences (which are an ‘effect’) – but in terms of the ‘cause’ of these experiences. We take you back to the start – to the deeper cause behind our physical and emotional experiences and that ‘cause’ is Thought. You could say, therefore, that this Podcast is about mental health and how to ‘think’ better and you would be partially correct. However – as Albert Einstein once said “We cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.” How we interpret these wise words, is that most problems, we encounter physically and emotionally, stem from our left-brain – logical; rational; linear; black & white; human-source thoughts. What we call the mid-level consciousness. Albert’s quote is often reworded to “What is the definition of madness? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result!” We feel this is the reason why humanity seems to be caught up in a loop of repeating problems and most try to solve these problems at the mid-level consciousness with left-brain thinking. It feels like humanity is stuck on REPEAT! I am sure many of us are experiencing, our problems getting worse and we can see how Albert Einstein was on to something! So, how do we break this never-ending repeat loop? How can we change our level of thinking to solve our problems and experience a better life – physically and emotionally? We have been on deep conscious journeys since 2012 and have discovered that the answer to this question is quite simple… We switch from our left-brain level of thinking to the right-brain level of thinking. This hemisphere of thinking is where creative; abstract; non-linear; colourful; higher-self source thoughts reside. We call this the higher consciousness. How do we switch to this level of thinking? Again, the answer is quite simple. We simply think less. As we think less human-source thoughts, it creates space for our higher consciousness thoughts to come through. So – how do we think less? The common answer to this is meditation and this is a powerful way to clear our human-source thoughts. However, as we have experienced, meditation can take time and practise to master. We have discovered that there is another way to reach the higher consciousness level of thinking, and it is simply to immerse ourselves in Nature and the Arts – music; movies; stories and art. Have you ever found yourself listening to a great piece of music or an enthralling story and it somehow speaks directly to your heart and soul? You begin to feel relaxed and peaceful; certain words jump out, which feel like a direct message for you, and then new, creative ideas come to you. YES! Us too! The reason this happens is because your higher consciousness speaks to you through nature, music and the arts - in fact it can be heard clearly, when you are relaxed and peaceful. It speaks in metaphor and symbolism – in a form which you can interpret for your own unique circumstances. Here’s a little example that happened to me just now, as we launch the Art of Life Podcast and as I sat, patiently waiting for some inspiring words to come from the higher consciousness, I needed to visit the bathroom! As I walked into the bathroom, some movement caught my eye. A cricket leapt out of nowhere and landed at the foot of a ladder. It showed me something and felt personal to my current circumstances, as I still experience little bouts of self-doubt about launching this Podcast. So what did cricket say to me? First thing that comes to me is ‘taking a leap of faith’ which felt like a motivating message from the higher consciousness. It felt significant that it settled on the ground near the ladder and the message I heard was ‘take the first step’. I also just looked up quotes about ladders and here is the top one by a guy named Thomas Huxley. “The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest upon, but only to hold a man’s foot long enough to enable him to put the other somewhat higher” I’ve not heard this quote before and yet it spoke to me deeply in this moment – a nudge saying ‘don’t just hang around where you are – get moving!’ Then it brought to my thoughts, a character in one of the stories you will hear on this Podcast. He is called Critical Cricket and he shows the main character the Critical Path to take – the most direct route – to his true creative self. So, just this one little scene felt like lovely reassuring encouragement from my higher-self – delivered through nature and this often happens to me when listening to a story, music or a movie. It’s what I call a ‘shouty message’ – some words seem to jump out at me and give me a buzz, or a slap in the face – whichever is most needed at the time! And this leads me ...
