Create a Life

| Greetings!
Find a quiet spot, take a breath, relax, watch for a few minutes the ebb and flow of the waves. The natural cycles of nature have the power to transport us to our true selves, our inner peace. Sitting here in the frigid cold watching the snow fall last week, I created this beach video from film I took last summer while in Costa Rica with family and graduates of Immersion, Integrative Nutrition. It's a visual meditation. Read more about it in the article below.
 Peace,
Janet

CREATIVITY - YOUR BIRTHRIGHT - A FREE CALL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our lives are each a work of art, and each one of us is the artist. Every choice we make adds a stroke to the masterpiece. Value your own originality and break out of the box that is keeping you down. Apply the creative process used by geniuses - from science and math to literature and painting - to every area of your life, whether it's inventing a new dish, being a good mother, securing a powerful position, writing a novel, or being inspired by the beauty of nature. Rather than trying to fit into traditional roles that society dictates, create relationships that work for you as you are.
Say to yourself, "I am a creative individual."
Save the Date: Creativity, my lifetime passion, is the topic of the Coaching Circle Call on Monday, February 1 at 8:30 pm East Coast USA. Listen in at no charge to sample the Coaching Circle. Please contact me to register to join the Circle and receive the dial in number. Call to register: 203-846-2642, or email janet@janetluongo.com |
ABOUT MY VIDEO, STILL AND FLOW
Still and flow was filmed in Costa Rica on the Playa Guiones on the Pacific Ocean August, 2009. I have always craved the sounds and smells of the ocean, having lived most of my life in urban areas on the U.S. east coast, except for 8 years in the mountains of Switzerland.
Being in the jungle and rainforest, and on the ocean made me feel part of nature's basic rhythms. I am a practitioner of yoga and meditation for 35 years. This video served for me as a meditation, merging the spiritual with nature.
The ebb and flow of the water is like respiration. When we inhale, we also "inspire" or fill ourselves with breath. Another word for exhale is expire. Now that my mother has died and I face my own aging, I meditate on the duality of immortal and mortal.
I hope people viewing it will slow down their pace and be still for four minutes. I want them to feel heightened awareness of the stillness at the center of all the motion and commotion in the world and to contemplate the opposites of the eternal and temporary. And to be in touch with the "flow" of energy and life that runs through us all.
I currently work with images of all kinds. I make collages and take photographs of people and nature - food and the beauty of the natural world. I have found video to be the perfect medium for me because it is all inclusive - not only images, but moving images, and I can connect sound, voice, narrative, poetry, story - all the things I have done as separate arts before.
After an eight-year career as a painter in Europe, I began making educational and documentary videos about twelve years ago and produced dozens of videos for public access television and the internet. Currently, I make videos to capture the fleeting beauty of the natural environment, the way other cultures eat, dress, interact, tend to gardens. My next art project is to capture the clash of culture change in China, based on my film from October, 2009. Now I make videos to satisfy my aesthetic sense and to express my spiritual philosophy.
