Dear Ones,

In 2017 my imagination dramatically changed after I experienced a surprising trauma, based in shock. I worked with this change in my faculty until 2022 and now I am sharing it with you in LUCID.

In some ways I lost control over large parts of my inner world. By control I mean, conscious collaboration with the way my imagination works. Images would play without notice, revealing themselves like movies in my visionary screen. But I hadn't invited them in, and the content didn't appear familiar. What was going on?

I am very familiar with the parts of my consciousness I have access to, I grew up with two moms who taught me when I was quite young how to 'live in here'.

I will be honest, it was really rough, but through it, of course, alchemy happened! Enough changed through practice that I can share it with you now. I needed to practice the teachings of LUCID for a full year myself, and with our Intentional Creativity student body, before I shared it with more people.

I call this process, LUCID. Funny thing is, I wrote the page for this course one year ago but I wasn't ready to teach it yet. I hope I am now, I guess we will see! (Money-back guarantee if it is just a lemon instead of all cherries :)

What I want to share with you is magical, but the approach is much more scientific - I want to show you the HOW. Of course that involves, painting to rewire how the brain and heart work together with the eyes and hands. Because that is just how we do it here at MUSEA!

Yes, we can do the sacred work
of reclaiming our consciousness
Imagination is the key to how
We gain access to the inner world
Creativity is the practice
that makes it possible
Living it in real life makes it actionable

Before I started practicing, there was a lot of fear, and a lot of desire to overcome and integrate what I was seeing. I talked to therapists, doctors, shamans and sages. Really. I needed insight. I searched the web. Nothing I found was quite what I was experiencing. Yet when I talked to individual people, they knew what I was talking about, even if they themselves had never talked about it out loud.

I felt like I had found a portal and I wanted to dive in, but I was afraid. Genuinely. To see images you do not summon without your permission, in your own mind, can be scary. But what is more scary is NOT KNOWING it is happening and believing what you see is your own OR not being able to make distinctions between inner world and outer world seeing.

While I was looking for a solution I felt a sense of deep compassion for everyone going through something similar. I hung around on the 'edges' of my consciousness long enough to learn something new that I could share with others. I like to say: I went to where the world bends where the colors we can't see with our naked eye, live.

While there is always more work to do to heal and grow I dove so deeply into the realm of my imagination that I found new ways to work with it that I had never experienced before. I went to the edges where the colors rippled.

I will tell my story of healing and inhabiting my imagination and invite you to join me. You may have heard me tell this story before, but it is the first time I am teaching specifically what I learned and how you too can work with your imagination to not only practice mending, but dream into new possibilities.

I hesitate to say it is 'trauma-informed', because while I want what we are doing to be honoring of the field of trauma work that is truly making great strides right now. I would rather say this:

Lucid is a journey to inhabit your imagination so you can see into your invisible world and influence your physical world. I think imagination is one of the least explored gifts of being human. We all have it, we all use it, and if we don't use it consciously it doesn't work in the way it could for us. That said, enter at your own risk, our courses come with a warning label. We go to places people haven't gone before, and we can't ensure everyone is having a similar experience. So come if you feel called and feel well enough to hang out in your imagination for the day...

The combination of playing and doing healing work is a wonderful combination - so come join us!

Your inner world holds the keys. No art experience needed. Really.
