The Daring Dreamers Showcase Presents: Interview with Daring Dreamer Dr. Stephen West

•   How did Dr. West bring back to life a man who was pronounced dead for an hour & a half & already on ice?

•   What exactly happens inside your body when you are shocked or traumatized?

•   Why is that so vitally important – whether it is a physical, mental or emotional shock or trauma?

•   What system inside your body is bigger than, and just as important as your blood circulatory system?

I heartily invite you to listen in on my interview with Dr. Stephen West of PowerHeal.com and discover what the incredible answers are to these questions.

Get to it here: http://IDareYouRadio.com/dr-stephen-west-power-heal

Also, find out:
•   the real reason why so many people experience obesity, edema, joint pain and -itises of all kinds
•   why candida is OK to have (to a point)
•   how you can help yourself resolve physical, mental and emotional issues using his process
•   what chemicals to absolutely avoid in your personal care products because of what they do to your cells

I was skeptical of his claim that he gets 100% results. I’m going to go to his events here in Honolulu next week and check out his process – he says he does a mass group heal at each event – should be interesting.

If you live in Hawaii, he’ll be in Honolulu on the 25th through the 28th – join me for 3 FREEbie nights and an all-day on Saturday – he sure has MY curiosity up!

Here’s where you can check times, days, locations on his event schedule: http://PowerHeal.com

Dr. West stresses that if you are a chiropractor, massage therapist or energy worker, this process will increase your effectiveness big-time. Might want to come to his event – or create one in your area for him.

100 Days 100 Paintings

In the beginning of July (2010) I embarked upon a project that has literally changed my habits, relationships, use of time, and confidence in myself as a painter.

DECISION
Right now, one of the worst tragedies resulting from our habit of manufacturing throwaway products is the mess on the beaches and in the oceans created by millions and millions of discarded plastic drinking water bottles.

I decided I was ticked off about how I have to practically climb over all the plastic trash when I go for walks on my favorite beach. I mulled and stewed about what I, a single little entity on the face of the planet, could do to help alleviate the problem and even help create a solution.

I finally decided to commit to painting 100 paintings in 100 days (business days), and put them up for sale for $100 each to raise awareness and money for the cleanup of the planetary mess.

And since I really don’t like working small, I chose to do 9″ x 12″ paintings, instead of the usual 4″ x 6″ most of the people I’ve seen doing 100-day projects like this do. Turns out it’s perfect, because if it got any smaller I’d tear my hair out.

Yes, $100 is about one-tenth of what I’d normally get for a painting this size, but it’s also enormously freeing – I feel like I can play with the work more than if it was trying to be some precious expensive MasterPiece.

SOUL STUFF

I had to ask myself in the very beginning, before I set up a single thing: is this venture something I’d hate doing by the 25th painting? Would it seem more like a job than fun? Would I be able to do what I committed to do? How did my Deep Self, my Souul, feel about it?

I had to laugh, because…

Thank you so much for sending me such nice comments about my crazy plan to paint 100 paintings in 100 days (http://bit.ly/100-100-100).

I’ll tell you more of what I’ve learned by doing this experiment in the next couple of days!

It’s been awesome, and 5 paintings have already sold out of 22 – cool! That’s 5 donations I’ve been able to make!

Oh – and I invite you to read the first three of the four articles I’m publishing about what I’m finding out in the process of creating this project – how to get the most of your own Creative Process – go here:

Musician Carole King was a regular on my radio in the 60s and 70s. I loved how powerful her voice was, how poignant and true-to-heart her lyrics.

Someone posted the following video on FB today, and I thought it was a great example to watch about not fooling around. Watch as she lovingly, softly announces who she’s bringing onstage to help her, and then how she doesn’t dither around when she starts the song – one huge, loud chord and her belt-em-out voice.

Such a great role model for self-belief and powerful starts! She carried all the way through, too, with variations in mood and tone. I love it!

As I told you last week, I’ve been painting up a storm for my Plastic Drinking Water Boottle Cleanup project.

When I first started it up, I promised myself I’d paint a painting every day (M-F!) for 100 days.

Well, I broke my mold! (You can see the painting that did it above.) I took TWO days to do one painting! So, no Monday painting, and today’s painting is $200, not just 100.

I got a note asking me why the paintings are so cheap, because normally they’d be going for 900 and up for the size they are (9″ x 12″). Today’s break-the-mold painting is Rosey Lips, here: http://100Days100Paintings.com

Easy – I want them to

This week my client, ‘Cynthia’ lit into me and scolded me crisply. She’d seen my email a couple of months ago where I announced that ‘I Quit,’ and knew I was taking more time for my artwork and cutting back on coaching.

She has been a client of mine for a while now, and she’s always sending me little notes of gratitude. She says, “because of you and your guidance, I’ve gone from being a terrified, limp buttercup to a huge, radiating sunflower in my business and personal life.”

So she was asking me about how it has been for me this past few months as I move my energies to living more of my Dream than ever, and how inspired she felt, herself, just seeing me go for it. That was nice. And then she nailed me.

“Angela,” she said (imagine a soft but very clear, low-toned voice),

A few weeks ago, Cindy Marks, who owns and runs Artizen Magazine (a FREEbie online magazine about artistry across the board: cooking, art, software, you name it, as long as it is done artfully) contacted me.

She asked if I would help her research and write an article about outdoor sculpture. Of course I said yes, and actually ended up interviewing one of my favorite artists – Carol Gold, who does delightful bronze sculptures of people and critters – and gathering the article contents, myself.

I heartily invite you to read the magazine article and see the great 5-page (!) layout we were given for it!
http://artizenMagazine.com – look on pages 33-39. You’ll see some of my own work there, as well. You may even want to get onto the mailing list.

And if you are at all curious about how a sculpture can go from wax to bronze, why water, winter and stone carvings don’t mix, or why Carol’s first adventure with doing monumental sculpture almost destroyed her desire to do others, here’s where to listen to the interview:

And there’s a link in the article that takes you my article on her as Featured Artist at the International Association of Women’s Sculpture so you can see more of her fabulous art. I hope you enjoy it all!
