Sometimes its better to think more broadly in a time of feeling stuck. This concept of asking myself if I'm in and inhale phase or an exhale phase has really helped me see where my resistance is and help me move back into the flow.

What if you could live a life that 100% represented your singular experience? What if you stopped asking how can I fit into the current society and dominate culture and instead asked what space can I carve out in the world that is mine, and fully supports who I am and what I care about?
In today’s episode I am talking with Yumi Sakugawa comic book illustrator author of I THINK I AM IN FRIEND-LOVE WITH YOU and YOUR ILLUSTRATED GUIDE TO BECOMING ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE.
In this episode we go deep into the ease of ritual, how we can make magic and ceremony, what it means to have tea with our demons and the beauty of embracing our shadow. She invites us to ponder what it would look like if we allowed ourselves to be pioneers of new unexplored emotional, magic, spiritual lands. The possibilities are endless.

Have you ever been in a stage of your life and thought "I thought I would be so much further along in _____ than I am" This week I am talking about that uncomfortable space of when we are going after our dreams and goals and we realize at some point that our expectations have not been met.
In this episode I will talk about the problems that can arise during this phase, why we need to pay attention to this phase rather than ignore it and offer some alternative questions we can ask ourselves to turn the self shaming around.

Episode Summary:
Have you ever wondered what people are talking about when they say "Just show up and do the work?" Well, in this episode we are getting deep into what that looked like for Nicole Miyuki watercolorist, teacher and author as she wrote her first book.
This episode is a shining example of what can happen when we follow our hearts and just keep doing the work we love to do and sharing that message with the world. For Nicole she had no idea she was building a brand and had never thought about writing a book until that one right opportunity appeared at her door. If your someone who wonders what your creative contribution may be, listen to Nicole's unconventional path of both doing the daily creative work and allowing the flow and ease to come through.

Today on the podcast I'm asking the question what is ritual, what is ceremony and how can we incorporate rites of passage in our daily life.
Ritual is what we make of it
Tarot Cards mean what meaning we give them
Ceremony is the act of showing up in a way that feels good to you
Honoring and Reverence: come from acknowledging and giving thanks to the moment, people and things.
I have had desire for ceremony, for blessing my space, for opening the circle and having intentions about what I want to invoke in.
I have been pulled to make magical potions, search for medicinal plants in the wild, take mild altering herbs, pull tarot cards, make tinctures, and create my own medicine out of rocks and feathers and rose petals.
And as that desire came through I thought for one second that because I didn’t know much about these things that I needed to go find a book, buy someone’s formula or find someone to tell me how to do it. What formula could I follow that would help me know these words better, ceremony, sacredness, honoring reverence, and who could tell me how to do them?

If your someone who has ever had an interest in doing a year long project this episode will hopefully provide you the inspiration to do one yourself. If you asked me 2 years ago if I thought this was possible for me, I would have told you that I never follow through on long term projects and that I'm just not the type of person who completes these sorts of things.
But I'm happy to say that I am just entering into my 11th Experiment and its been surprisingly more easy than I thought and also so much fun! For this interview I had the creator of the 12 Experiments Sarah Natsumi Moore interview me on what its been like so far.
If you want to follow along on my current experiment a month of walking you can follow me @creativitypluswellness on Instagram, or check out the blog www.maringhiga.com/blog to see what past experiments looked like.

Bio:
I am captivated by all things metaphysical; the transcendent experience that defies logic, the omen, the prophetic dream, and realms unknown. I explore the esoteric through tarot card readings, meditation, channeling, spirit work, various healing modalities, art, and music.
My background is that of a creator and teacher. I received my MFA from the School of the Art Institute in 2008; I spent the years following working at colleges, touring with my band, reading tarot, and creating art. In 2011, I self-published my first tarot deck, the Laughing Eye Weeping Eye Tarot. It was more successful than I anticipated, as were my tarot readings. People shared that my tarot readings were life-altering and encouraged me to continue. With a ton of support from loved ones as well as faith in the Universe, I left my full time job in 2013 so that I could pursue these passions full-time.
My creative practices also feeds my divination and spiritual work. As an artist and musician, I create works that explore archetypes within the collective unconscious. For example, I am interested in how ancient cave paintings of horned men (or gods) and a wall calendar of deer in one’s home may evoke, unknowingly, a connection to something similar across time and space. It is the timeless that I seek to explore, sometimes in a playful way.
Tarot was my first hook into the metaphysical. I had unusual experiences in my youth (channeling, automatic writing, astral travel) but did not understand or start using these gifts until I created my first deck and began reading from it in 2011. I found that the process of reading unlocked something for me. I am still trying to understand it; This mystery keeps me enthralled.
