Frequency Immersions Autumn Winter Newsletter

Hello there Lovely Luminous Beings!

If you have been to any of my recent sessions, a big thank you for your support!

I hope you have all had a wonderful summer and hope you have been able to manage some relaxation and sunshine. I survived the summer weeks with my lively boys.We visited their Italian Nonna in Wales and we also managed the wonderful festival of Into the Wild at the end of August, plus some wonderful bonus days at the seaside during the very recent wave of blessed sunshine for which I am very very grateful. I have certainly happily been topping up on vitamin sea and D this summer!

Can you help?

I am looking for further venues to hold more Frequency Immersions. In Edenbridge in particular but if you do know of any area where there are good halls and/or plenty of interest in this, please get in touch.

How to get the most out of your session

Want to know how to prepare your mind and body prior to a sound therapy/frequency immersion session to maximise your healing process? Here are some tips that can help you.

○ Spend some time relaxing and resting before your sound bath. It’ll help you be more mindful in anticipation of the session.

○ Keep yourself hydrated before the healing session. You’ll want to be well hydrated because sound waves travel better through water.

○ Try to eat light. Keeping your stomach empty and your body filled with energy from healthy food is a great way to enjoy a better healing experience.

○ Wear comfortable and loose clothing during the session. You want your body to be able to breathe and relax when those frequencies are passing through.

○ Take a few minutes to calm the mind before starting your sound bath session. This will help you to focus, relax and reduce any distracting mind chatter.

○ Come prepared with an intention. The attunement you may seek through frequencies will be so much more profound when accompanied by a set intention. This can be anything from healing a physical or emotional issue, healing a relationship, or simply restoring the balance of the body and tranquility of mind.

A shift

Whilst I am still a keen artist I have shifted or rather, expanded my focus temporarily to get a few new skills under my belt. As of September 2021, I achieved a Sound Therapy Diploma with a distinction! I have spent a good year since then practicing and planning and am now embarking on sessions with groups and individuals. The response has been immense and I am so grateful to be able to help those who come to my sessions. For me, it isn’t a very far cry from the painting, for as far as I am concerned, I am still creating frequencies to help people on their journey of healing, whether through sound or colour.

Painting the town...

I am a member of a local arts group and we have just finished some posters for our station platform. Today they went up and one of them is mine. The final image below is the original artwork, which can be viewed at my exhibition at Crowborough community centre from June 21st till July 20th.

Since I wrote the above, Mayor Greg Rose has been to visit the station to view the artwork.

The station posters are available to purchase at the following link. http://www.crowborough-arts.org.uk/station-posters-project-2019.html Proceeds go to Crowborough Arts. Postcards of the poster are also available in various local shops as well as the library.

Official Press Release

New Crowborough Arts Poster Designs brighten up Crowborough Station. Mayor Greg Rose came along to meet the artists from Crowborough Arts who designed the new set of posters that welcome passengers off the train on Platform One at Crowborough Station. The colourful and varied designs by members of Crowborough Arts show different aspects of the town and local surroundings and make the station a more cheerful place for visitors and commuters alike.

These posters in new more secure frames replace the earlier set of different designs, which had become faded and been vandalised.

New exhibition date!

I will be exhibiting at the Crowborough Community Centre, June 21st - July 20th. Come and have a look!

Anything is possible

Hey there!
It’s been a while! I have predominantly been busy with my children, seasonal festivities and some of home decorating too.

What’s new? I have managed to get some of my art printed on items such as mugs and coasters etc to show you that anything is possible. If there is any art you see on this website which you’d like on anything other than canvas, let me know and I am sure I can make it happen!

Exhibit

I am currently exhibiting at The Courtyard in Rotherfield. Hope you can make it to a viewing over a delicious lunch of coffee.

Inspiration

Inspiration. What is it? Where does it come from?
I guess we would have to start by looking at what our passions are. What makes us happy? What makes our heart beat faster? What gets us really excited and moves us to start or create something new? I happen to love colour, always have. Strong, bold and bright colours as well as the more muted tones. I love how colour can make you feel things; set or change a mood. Colour excites me and I love playing with it in my work. And it will always be there as golden thread linking all that I do together. I am grateful for the gift of sight; I cannot imaging not being able to see colour. This also means I would love to be able to see the human energy field, the aura, around peoples bodies. I can't think of anything more exciting to be able to see these glowing beings of colourful light moving around. I have seen them only a handful of times and it's been an amazing experience. We all have the ability of course, we just need practice... Anyway, I digress, I wanted to speak about inspiration.
 

"When I'm writing, some days the pen just goes. I'm not in charge and I'm almost listening outside of it. That's when I realise that we all have to start looking at life as a gift." - Prince, 1958-2016

Often, once I have finished a piece, I look at it with surprise and wonder where that came from. I have a starting point but never know where it might lead. But along the way I get taken on a path. I try to follow as best I can and collect lessons on the way. The lessons can be of practical nature but sometimes they can lead to deeper more profound findings. Much of the time when we reach a meditative state or flow state, I think we are closest to the source of our inspiration (in spirit), our highest version of our self, meeting our physical being effortlessly to help guide and moves us to create. This state does not only come to artists but to you may find yourself in a flow state whilst on a run or during a yoga class. It could be anything. You will find you will lose all track of time and forget who or what you are. You find you are truly in the moment, just being; existing; creating. Pure enjoyment.

In the beginning...

Hello.
I am so excited to share my first website with you. Of course there has been some sharing of my work on social media, but this feels more real, more official. Over the last few years people have been asking me what type of art I do or such questions so I felt it was time to put it all together and create this site, a showcase, if you like. 

"It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are." -E.E.Cummings

This is me stepping into this role publicly and saying, Yes! I am an artist! This is more than a hobby. It is a passion and I am having a good go at it. I am exploring another aspect of myself and my abilities. (Incidentally, this is also my first ever blog.) We are all artists in our own way, we simply have to start creating when we hear the call! I certainly am glad I did as I feel lots better for it! I hope you enjoy my work and this site.

Until next time, stay colourful!
Jose
