“Dear Inner Light”

Community exhibition empowering us to do the projects we love and energize us.

Backstory

Many of us have had our curiosities, talents, or passions projects discouraged. Many of us have the light in our eyes dimmed by school, parenting, or other critical punishment.

As a result, we live lives being obedient, not built upon our honest selves. 

  • For me, building a life without my honest self and deepest desires, resulted in constant dissatisfactions and copings. 

  • In our community, we can see the effects of dimming the light in our heart: rage, depression, addictions, denial, and disengagement.

“Dear Inner Light,” is a collection of love letters to that light in our eyes and in our heart, our inner child, our spirit.

Each loving message is designed to help break down a belief discouraging our inner light, and replace it with unshakable truths that empower our inner light.

Lets Blossom Together

 

 Why did I create this community experience?

Each of us has an inner light - visions, dreams, energy from the cosmos.

In my youth I knew I wanted to create art to empower people.
However, I inherited and received beliefs discouraging my visions.
Feeling unable to do my soul's work, I released rage against myself and others.
And regardless of the successes or the highs, I hated that I was not doing what I really believed in.

The last few years, I gradually dispelled those limiting beliefs:
from not feeling good enough to surviving doing what I love, through books, videos, and so much reflection.
And in the process rediscovered core truths empowering me to manifest what deeply matters to me.

With this first community experience, I wish to share these empowering truths,
their realization, and invite you to manifest your dreams together.

By doing so, we can manifest what deeply matters to us
and support each other in making our dream lives real.
And in the process, shape a world living from love.

Thank you for visiting this experience.
May you return empowered to nurture your inner light.

From love,

Tomas Castro
