I don't think they are the same. Dreaming or at least sleep dreaming is designed to allow the body to repair, produce and do what it needs to do in the "dark" time. Dreams, allow our "little ego" to work out issues and problems for us. AND, the dream state gives the soul a chance to leave the body and do what it has to do.<br />In the creative, meditative space our souls are creating with us. We are providing the physical expression for the soul to create.<br />It's a space that really doesn't have anything to do with our physical bodies mending or producing or whatever it is it does at night. Does that make sense? Well, it did to me in the 88 degree heat and humidity outside. :)BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05825249325749004937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1941079498499406329.post-54975068755736865402010-07-24T11:21:18.768-06:002010-07-24T11:21:18.768-06:00I honestly can't tell you how many times I'...I honestly can't tell you how many times I've gone into my studio and have lost track of time. When I'm in the "zone" it's a very zen experience. There's nothing but the work and my hands. One minute it's 10 a.m., and the next it's 4 p.m. It could be pouring outside or sunny - I've no idea, although I'm facing two side-by-side windows in my little studio. It's bliss! <br /><br />Trudi, it goes without saying, your pieces are gorgeous. I'm soooo happy that you've decided to do an ETSY shop!!! You GO, girl!!! Your beautiful work deserves to be shared and adored!!!!

I had sold out and was frantic as to what I could do to get ready for the next one. I walked into my studio and went into a very strange "art state." Every one of my movements seemed mechanized. No time was wasted, no step was wasted as I finished the sculptures that I had just taken from my kiln. When I started, the clock had said 8:AM. When I looked again, it was 10:PM. I do not remember anything other than this. When I headed for the show the following weekend, my Rubbermaid tubs were full again and my show helper asked me where the sculptures came from. She thought I must have cleared out a gallery. When I told her what happend, she was amazed..I was as well. The creative force took over in full force. I'm always grateful when that force hits. Time does indeed, stand still. <br /><br />Thanks for asking for examples. I know this happens to most artists in a similar way.Healing Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13654497453272680145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1941079498499406329.post-87288116293550764582010-07-23T14:03:26.411-06:002010-07-23T14:03:26.411-06:00Absolutely, right on the mark.

When I meditate there is no, man created idea of time. I am. Being able to totally lose yourself in a different space is probably the healthiest thing we can do for our mind, bodies and spiritual selves. :)BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05825249325749004937noreply@blogger.com
