How to Rest in 4 Easy Steps

How to Rest was born after Elizabeth experienced the loss of the dearest person in her life. The Four Steps offers a loving way to look at R.E.S.T. whether you are grieving, tired of life, or overwhelmed.

  • Relax
  • Exhale
  • Surrender
  • Trust

We are talking about the kind of rest where your heart begins to ease, where you sense a sweet peace permeating your body, restoring, healing and calming your cells. Where you might feel, even for a split second, that all is well or will be well in a time of transition.

The Four Wisdoms of Creativity

The Four Wisdoms of Creativity operate all at once and yet any one of them alone has the power to change a life, to enhance creativity, and navigate the sometimes rocky-road of change. When you come from a place of fertility and abundance mirroring the Egyptian Goddess Isis, your creativity is enhanced and your stress is reduced. I introduce four simple principles that gently guide you in everyday life and jumpstart your creative aspirations, opening you to possibility and mystery.

  • Move in the direction of what gives you energy
  • Be involved with what you love
  • Be receptive
  • Do as little as possible

Living in the Pause ~

Let your spirit exhale to experience the peace of living in the in-between spaces of your life. When you open and embody the space in and around your body with movement and sound, new designs, ideas and story-gems emerge. Join me for an afternoon of meditation, poetry-sound and prayer in motion, journaling and storytelling from a spaciousness that is inherent in our universe, and yet often forgotten. Healing happens in the in-between, in the pause, and between the breaths. It finds us in the listening space with no-thought, no expectation, no agenda. Enjoy being in the in-between. Learn basic meditation and healing techniques, while listening to your own dreams, your genius and intuition. Be prepared to be self-inspired.

HONORING LOSS ~ CONNECTING TO LOVE

Grief requires expression and a witness. Through ritual, writing, meditation, and creativity we share and heal together.

William Shakespeare said it best when he wrote, “Give sorrow words. The grief that does not speak whispers the o’er fraught heart and bids it break.” Whether that witness be another person, words on a page, paint to canvas, a poem, a dance, a prayer or a song. Honoring Loss – Connecting to Love creates a safe space to deepen in our understanding of this profound emotion that touches every life whether we have experienced the loss of a loved one, a relationship, a job, health, creativity, the loss of safety, purpose, or peace. We will engage in writing practices and discussion that help us witness grief, that offer hope, and that open us to the Creative that is so important in times of sorrow.

THE POWER OF STORY TO BRING WORLD PEACE

Through story, song and dance we have lived and loved, created community, celebrated, and grieved. If we take time to hear the story that wants to emerge, we will come to know ourselves in a deeper, richer way. Upon knowing ourselves in a fuller way, we shall know another and then another, until we know all the world. We will write stories and tell stories of fact or fiction, weaving color, sensation, rhythm and sound. We will build our stories in a relaxed and play-filled environment and experience them body, heart, mind, and soul.

USING YOUR VOICE TO HEAL, CONNECT, AND CREATE

Rejoicing in the power of the voice, we will tone and speak the Word with rhythm and grace to rediscover the harmonizing magical effect sounds has to offer us to heal, rest, rejuvenate and express. The sounds of our voice are as unique as handprints and footprints. In our sounding ceremonies we honor our voices as gifts to our Selves and the worlds we walk through. “In the beginning was the stillness of all that is. The stillness moved and there was sound.”

THE POWER OF LANGUAGE, MANTRA, AND SILENCE

Language has power to reframe, uplift and heal, and it has power to harm and wound. We will discuss the platitudes and concepts that suppress our creative nature, and we will investigate how we can infuse our words with new life that supports our wellbeing. You will learn about affirmations and mantras, sacred key syllables called bijaksharas, which hold power, knowledge, peace, and health. Finally, we will explore periods of silence, from where all language evolves.

What People Are Saying

“In her one woman show Elizabeth demonstrates a unique capacity to change characters as effortlessly as changing clothes. Each character she portrays has its unique energy as well as expression and voice. Humor and pathos mingle and ebb and flow throughout the performance. Spellbinding!”
Rita Marsh, Carbondale, CO, Davi Nikent Center for Human Flourishing

“Your presentation tonight touched my heart and soul. Your voice and chants set the stage for me to open to new possibilities in performance art. You hold space for blessed creativity and sacred celebration of artistic expression. Thank you for a meaningful performance!”
Lisa Dancing-Light, Performance Artist, Carbondale, CO

“I have seen Elizabeth Welles perform monologues and selections from her one-woman show. She is personable, energetic, interesting and entertaining. I highly recommend her for an evening’s entertainment!”
Melony Vance, General Manager, Latitude 33 Booksshop, Laguna Beach, CA

“William Blake sums it all up for creativity, “To see a world in a grain of sand, and a heaven in a wildflower… hold infinity in the palm of your hand, and eternity in an hour…” When you see Elizabeth Welles perform, this is what you get. For creativity is what she knows in her soul. In a highly creative, fun, and inspiring way, she tells it like it is, saying what we all want to say, but are too afraid to say. Her stories span from the uproariously funny to the deeply poignant and sad, but always delivering us to the heart of what matters, while enticing our senses, making us think and want to care. Life, itself, inspires this creative artist. And an evening spent watching her will, in turn, inspire you. It did me, and I continue to be inspired.”
Carol Lynn Healy, Energy Worker and World Traveler

“Elizabeth Welles laughs like she has a secret no one else knows. Wonderful performance work, truly alive on stage!”
Debbie Martz, Home Professional
