If you missed Gina Virginia Casella’s Fall “Falling Consciously” conference, then you missed my share of the two NEW SONGS! So, here’s a sneak peek. I’m still working on getting each full song on YouTube with its own video: https://youtu.be/vMYCMKNmNzk?si=ObOmNaBF3NwidhmL

I had an amazing time on the post conference wrap up (that Michael Kopf held on his channel a few days after Gina Virginia Casella’s Fall conference). I was ecstatic to be included in the lineup because I so enjoyed Daryl and Joshua’s presentations at the conference! Now, here I am speaking with Daryl James and Joshua Shapiro: https://www.youtube.com/live/0DiRaEOtxag?si=hOVkoutJ6PSJKP0o

I continue, albeit slowly, to do some painted sketches of my husband’s artwork. I don’t have an art alcove like my dear soul artist friend, Linda Lewis of Creative Artworks blog… so I sit and sketch in stages in my recliner, usually while my husband is watching something on YouTube on our big screen TV. He will peek over at what I’m doing, but he’s good about waiting until I take a break to comment. And I’ve been quite pleasantly surprised that he’s so complimentary!

My husband, Richard Murrey, was a professional artist for over 40 years and an art director for a time for Sea World, Disney, and NASA, so I was kind of shy to start sketching. Thankfully, I persevered! I am now, using a smaller sketchpad, though that was my mistake when I ordered it, so I get to practice resizing each piece. Eventually, I may try my hand at sketching without using a model, or I will simply watercolor paint.

I begin with a pencil sketch, then use a marker to establish bold lines. –Richard Murrey artwork underneath, my sketch on top. –Sheila Murrey

This is how I sit to sketch; all my pens, pencils, and paints are in a rattan tote on the floor down beside my chair. My sketch is top left. –Sheila Murrey + The framed artwork on my lap. –Richard Murrey

I finished the painted sketch with oil pastels and watercolor paints. I really wanted the water to flow, but when I saw some of the black marker bleeding into the paint, I dabbed it a bit and decided to stop. Richard said he thought the bleed over was fine. I don’t know though. I must be picky. –Sheila Murrey

Moves Method

I’ve been so humbly grateful that my Moves Method short videos have been taking off! Many now have over 1,000 views, on YouTube, as well as nearly that many on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. Of course, doing my own mobility training, recording some, learning how best to edit them and get them onto each of the platforms, has taken a fair amount of time, so I have not been keeping up with my reading (both blogs/books). And for that, I apologize. You know me though, I’ll spiral back around to read. And winter is coming!

I’ve got my tent sauna setup again after moving it to the other side of my upstairs spa room, so I’ll read while I’m in the sauna in the evenings. I have also been experimenting with new recipes and happy to say, I’m between 2.5 to 3 inches of waist size loss and my clothes are baggy on me now (I don’t weigh myself, so not sure how much weight I’ve lost). I am in love with the Moves Method though!

Breathing in the miracles today…

I’m breathing and repeating my new mantra: “Art communicates more than words, builds new brain neural pathways, and connects us all!”

Yours in consciousness-expansion as we evolve and revolve during our mystical awakening. Doing-my-egoless-best, to take you on a limitless, spiraling integrating ride to better health, doing with more ease and less effort-ing, to help us find and sustain the JOY in our lives! (Sprinkling Gratitude all around while we’re at it.)

Integrating the WOO into everything we DO, now. And loving it.
