    What I love most about all these is that these are not extremely young, well-known mega star artists. They are older unknowns whose art is an integral part of them, not a showpiece.

    Such beautiful moments of life caught on camera. From the first moment that I watched your films I felt like I had “found my tribe” again on this earth.
    I am a creative myself and understand that what we create is more than what is produced. There is an elegant engagement with something deeper within ourselves, which is the essence of who we are.
    I love creativity, and feel truly blessed that I play with it everyday as I make my jewellery and Art.
    I am indebted to my friend for introducing me to your foundation.
    Keep inspiring!👏👏👏

    It's really amazing and so meaningful. Every video your team makes has this amazing peaceful music, the details included in each frame, the picture and the colours, the right words with the right video frame, the right music.... every thing is like another magic ingredient which all comes together creating a whole world of magical moments for us. Every video just calms us down, stops us and makes us think "what is our life all about? What are we running after? Why rush through life instead of slowing down little?". Thank you team for such amazing videos....god bless you all for creating such magics in all of our life.

It really makes us smile to hear that our films bring a sense of calm and contemplative reflection into your life. And it is almost like you have read our minds - our film that we'll be releasing later this week is all about slowing down and taking time to appreciate what we have in our lives.

    This is definitely my favourite one..the video itself is a work of art about art and creativity...how delightful! I relate to it as an artist, it's taken me 35 years to really come to see the value of my gift of creativity. It really is a gift from God to be treasured and used to serve ourselves and others.
    I haven't come across any of your videos depicting younger, working, busy mums/dads trying to find peace and balance, creating and seeking spiritual growth, these things seem to come naturally to these mature aged people who have more time, less responsibility and are able to shine their wisdom...just a thought!

And we're so happy to hear that you have found yourself in a space where you recognise and value your creative spirit and what flows from it. Great question about younger, busy mums and dads. It isn't a topic that we've covered in much detail, and something that we will consider going forward. But for now, here are a few films with younger parents - not all talking about raising their kids - but who none the less, juggle this responsibility daily, while dealing with all the other aspects of a busy life. We hope that you enjoy. Warmest of hugs. Justine and Michael x

    The dream-like quality of your films is quite extraordinary.

The latter is the root of our discontent and loneliness. Nature and creativity bring contentment.

    I’ve recently become interested in photography… I see things I never saw before…I’ve been so terribly sad and lonely over the years , but my passion to photograph something quite ordinary or beautiful is creative for me …I’m happily happy with just being me , though I’d love to share that with a soul partner.

    This seemingly innocent film is actually very spiritual reaching the crux of who we are....
    Connecting ourselves to consciousness thought listening, following the heart, letting creativity create stillness and oneness within us.
    I was especially touched by the profound spiritual depth of the lady with gray hair. Right on the money.
    The gentleman also made a profound spiritual remark in the latter portion of the film. It is all about being in the moment. Being creative makes us aware of the moment....
    And unbeknownst to us, we are one with the Source, connected to the Source in that moment and our spirit soars.
    Thank you for finding these people, for asking the right questions and for making beautiful, meaningful, inspiring and hope-filling films.

    In life we experience the joy of movement, the feel of texture, seeing colour, the scent of the material, hearing the vibrations and creating form.

    A transcript of Ms. Garisch's words:
    --------------------------------------------------------
    I read a biography of Quentin Tarantino once. And his best friend said "thanks goodness, he ended up being a movie director and script writer. Otherwise he would have been a mass murderer". So, I like to think artists would have been terrible human beings if they hadn't been artists, you know.
    The creative part of the brain has got these deep roots into the unconscious and puts things together in strange ways and poetic ways to help us understand what is going on in the world. Creativity is there to help us explore who we are and puts you in touch with what is happening to you so that you live more deeply.
    Our egos are little corks floating on the ocean. What we know (and our identity) is this small, and the unconscious is that big. So you've got this massive resource of the unconscious and we are trained, I think, by society, not to trust the unconscious. If you value your own creativity as a huge resource to help you process your own life and anxiety, you come to terms with your life, you come to accept the things that happen to you.
    I've recently been through a very traumatic time. I couldn't see a way out of this situation. And writing was the thing that got me through actually. It contains you when you are flung apart with anxiety. Because in writing you can be characters that you would never be in your normal life. So on the page you are exploring a part of yourself that you wouldn't really let out. And things start happening on the page which you can never get to in your logical brain. You never know what's going to arrive from the unconscious because you are not working with what you know. You don't have to process it necessarily through words. You can process it through an image, take it to the clay, or do a collage. And then you have a conversation with what you don't know you don't know about your anxiety.
    If we valued our own creativity for its own sake, for our own mental health's sake, I think the world would look like a very different place.

    I need more of this.
    To listen more and more to other people who have made sense of their creative minds.
    I have looked into
    Temperaments, found mine, and tried to understand myself better. But it is almost a 1 dimensional exercise.
    Through words on a screen.
    I set myself free when i create. You talk about not knowing that you don’t know.
    Im 61 and inly 10 years ago I had first real opportunity to express what was in my unconscious.
    Prior I worked hard physically and was a horrible angry person.
    Anyway look forward to more of you talking about discovering your creative mind at deeper and deeper levels
