 Rosalind
is a visual artist. We started doing sessions around
the time she received a big painting commission for
a new hotel being built in Chile. She attributes the
inspiration for her artwork in this project to her private
Mind Mirror EEG sessions, which also held her steady
through its conclusion. What I find so significant about
her experiences is that they allowed her to reconnect
to her inner core of creative inspiration (theta) that
may have become clouded over the years while assuming
all the external responsibilities of a professional
artist. This is the essence of Creative Mindflow: everyone
knows deep within what really inspires them and what
steps they need to take in order to turn their inner
visions into reality. Rosalind is a classic example
of bringing her experiences from deep levels of consciousness
back into beta reality. We all can learn from her insights.
"The mind-mirror / awakened mind experience
with George Pierson has played an important -- I would
say central-- role for my work as an artist from March
through October of this year, and I feel certain it
will continue to be a part of my evolution as an artist
and as a person. The three sessions, at the beginning,
middle and end of a large commissioned project I had
taken on helped me in a very deep way to find my "compass":
they connected me to memories, feelings and aspects
of myself which emerged in the work I produced in the
form of unexpected insights, confidence and actual accomplishment.
Through the whole process, I have been able to recover
the excitement and passion for my work, which I felt
only when I first began painting many years ago.
I have become more and more convinced that art that
is truly meaningful, for me, is intricately tied to
the "place" from where it springs (its source):
instead of imposing "ideas" or trying to figure
out verbally "what to do" and worry about
formal or academic issues, the awakened mind experience
allows those sources that are "close to the heart"
to flow and to take their natural form in visual terms.
This, I believe, is a treasure for anyone involved in
creating.
George has been wonderful, as he has guided me through
this process: gentle, supportive and responsive. I am
truly grateful for this experience. "
