The term creative process is most commonly heard in association with art.
Rarely are its aspects appreciated in the arenas of
illness and wellness.

The multi-dimensional machinations at the origin of all manifestations:

ebbs+flows
of
confusion+light, space+action, external+internal, choice+passivity, quiet+communication, patience+frustration, peace+discomfort, Free Will+Destiny, knowing+not, intellect+intuition, matter+energy, words+colours, fear+perception, before+after, association+freedom, thought+realization, circumstance+response, cycles+chaos, universal+specific.

The path to imbalance does not perceive the existence of its creativity.

It prefers to ignore messages and agree to presentations, habitually welcoming, designing disconnection of intertwining facets until, a norm of chronic unwellness, a “nameable” disease or crisis and, opportunity.

The creative process of healing is not a dissection of causes, each to be directly met with its cure.

It is a navigation and understanding of a life, of unfolding, awareness, communications from within and reading from the story in which one participates.

It is a consciousness of the interconnections, and of the whole.

It is an evolution providing for greater self- knowledge, openness to the experience of an expanded reality and the courage to greet its circumstances with a wisdom that defies convention.

It is transformation.
