Creating Joy Through Art and Music

One way to create joy in one's life is through great art and music. Go to the local, best, classical art center, read nothing about the place or it's art (which tells you how to react). Reaction is always the same and comes from un-worked-out conflicts with parental figures. A true 'sponse' or re-sponse comes from going within. Stand in front of a famous Rembrandt or Titian or Rubens alone for at least 10 minutes. Breathe deep then look for hidden small figures in the background colors. What pictures are coming into your head? What are you emoting, Joy, Anger, Fear, Sadness? are you feeling it, stomach, heart, etc? Dialog with the emotion, divide the painting into 4 sections. Which is your favorite? Thank the artist (evokes the artist in you!!! !!!). Now put on a record, cassette or CD of the Blue Danube Waltz. Ask your soul, your higher self to dance with you. Be sure she leads. Now sit quietly for a while, then sing (yes you can sing!) whatever comes up your throat then the vowels like a cat 'meowing', end with OM!
Love and light,
Rev. Niel Voigt
