Cindy Male: "Course for Correction: A Guide to Find Your Creative Potential"
As a creative, one becomes invested in life through the unique relationships formed with self and others. As a creative, one is challenged to establish the desire to assert change. Each of us can examine the need to repurpose the intentions we have for ourselves as well as our children and students so that they may find mental clarity for prosperity. Spiritual funding is required for an enlightened outcome, mental funding for liberated ideas, and physical funding for successful work. If we are limited in our prosperity of any one of these three agents of change, we cannot create effectively.
Art and yoga are two vehicles that synergistically connect abilities of the physical body, capacities of finite mind and the perspectives of infinite mind. Spirit, an aspect of the infinite mind that holds non-physical creative abilities, is the unifying force among the diverse energies of the cosmos. Through spirit, one can experience the relationships between all things; through mind, one can affirm purpose; and through the physical, engage wisely with the world. This book reinforces the need for conscious curriculum and solicits the individual to accept the responsibility of making conscious change in self and society. Using breath, yoga, art, and meditation, this short read guides us toward becoming creators of a more authentic community. It leads us to create a life with less fragmentation and a more visionary spirit.
The 21st-century's ubiquitous technology advances our global society by shuffling interpersonal content instantaneously and constantly, thus providing opportunities to manipulate a culture’s point of view through whimsical and often erratic perspectives. As a collective, we create our lives, consciously or unconsciously, through venues such as online gaming, social media, and movie streaming services. We have the privilege of not only becoming part of the thread, image, or concept to which we align but to collectively build a ‘truth’, or fantasy, each and every time we visit our screen. We live in that fabrication, and that fabrication influences our ‘Truth’. Using art and yoga in self-directed learning, Course For Correction: A Guided Journey to Find Your Creative Potential addresses the need to re-purpose our motivations, in life as in art, so that our beliefs and convictions do not mimic the unstable world of cyberspace.
The fifty sections of Course for Correction describe how the complexity of creativity manifests in each of the physical, mental, and spiritual levels of knowing. A consistent practice of engaging capacities of finite mind with perspectives of infinite mind must be built in order to manifest a creative proficiency that allows a person to boldly experience and confidently express oneself within the world. This book compiles scientific information, cultural philosophies, personal experiences, individual revelations, and involvements with art and yoga to help plant the seed of desire to dig deep, remove individual and collective creative blockages, and begin the journey of personal creative growth toward conscious living. I offer tools that motivate, suppress, and ground the synergistic creative impetus within. This guide holds curriculum that cultivates latent talent and augments current educational strategies. Make a commitment and be patient with yourself and others. Change is time-space. Begin now!
