A powerful live conversation on creative healing, trauma mapping, and becoming the Canyon. Jay shares their journey of integration, identity, and freedom.
Dear Jay, thank you for your stunningly deep insights from your Canyon and our conversation. I love how compassionate inquiry can draw us into fresh revelations.
I look forward to diving into questions from our communities this Friday:
- What resonates with you?
- Do you sense an inner terrain that holds your past?
- Do see potential for creative healing, to release beliefs and fears that may impact your future?
PS: I'm thrilled for your essay at Wildlands, and your future book! (Thank you also for articulating the mission of "Mostly Brave" — to acknowledge our fear and yet do the scary thing - I can struggle with saying this!)
Thank you, Christine—for holding this space and for staying so close to the depth of our conversation. Compassionate inquiry does reveal more than the surface, and in this case, it brought structures into view I hadn’t planned to name that clearly—until they stood there.
Yes to terrain. Yes to creative healing. And yes to your mission. You are saying it—every time you show up inside it.
Thank you for sending this message which I hope to look at later.
In a rush now, I must paste information here. It’s lovely when poetry comes to you, and it’s surprising that it still comes when even if a person is not particularly fond of poetry.
I know who is writing meaningful poems yet has not always cared for poetry. Another person finds that writing poetry and writing prose must be done in separate time periods. Only one style seems to come at a time was the explanation.
It might be helpful to know that some people can only read writing on a plane background. As an example, some of us can only read the interesting poem shown on the light creamy-white solid background. It is that way in books, too. Some authors write on top of art, and some of it is hard for various people to read, no matter how pretty it is. Still, it seems that the person to be most pleased should be the author, depending on how much the person wants to share the ideas with everyone. There is joy in creating, and authors deserve to have the joy. There is also the joy of sharing, so the information concerning possible displays might or might not be helpful. Also, for color, the white on black shows with readable contrast, but some people’s challenges influence what fonts are readable. Still, I’m sure it is fun to experiment and have fun creating in many ways. The joys are to be appreciated, but there are many challenges for some eyes. Art as a border works if the writing is on a plain background usually. All of this seems to vary from person to person.
I will share 25/8/4 5pm PST, 8pm EST, 9.4.25 02:00 CEST my first complete overview of the Canyon-Model and how I used it:
