Welcome and I’m so glad I stumbled upon you here. Your work is amazing and what you write about the creative process is very interesting and inspiring. I sold off all my belongings about two months ago and am in a fairly similar situation as you. Happy holidays and enjoy Bend (it’s such beautiful nature there!)

Same here! It definitely seems like our lives are on similar paths. I've also been into spirituality for quite a few years now. Congrats on freeing yourself from the shackles of the norm. Thank you, same to you! Bend is a great place. I definitely plan on writing more about my creative process, so I look forward to continuing the conversation.
I am following you and looking forward to your future content. I’ve somehow been trying to do this for so long, and now I’m here, for about 2,5 months and then heading to northern Spain to rebuild a farm my friend bought. What teachings or philosophies of spirituality do you follow or practice?
I've studied everything from Pagan traditions, Buddhism, Hinduism, Shamanism, and quite a few other paths. I've found that most foundations are the same throughout and most are trying to tell you the same thing, in their own way. Have you ever read any work from Joseph Campbell? He really delves into all the similarities shared from myth to religion and how it's all tied together. One of my favorite authors on the subject of the Hero Journey.
Sorry for the late reply... You have indeed studied quite a broad field of teachings. I’m glad you say that the foundations are mostly the same, because this is my observation also. The works of Campbell seem interesting, will put his name on my to read list. Hope you had a relaxing xmas time!
