Welcome to my blog! My name is Lanakila Iesu, and I’m a massage therapist, musician, writer, and all-around good gal to know, living in San Lorenzo Valley, California (think Santa Cruz mountains).
I’m a little bit practical and a little bit kooky…a little bit balanced and a little bit extreme…but all of it is ultimately in the interest of creativity. I’ve maintained other blogs pertaining to different topics, but this blog is my way of sharing and celebrating what’s going on for me as a creative person, so that whoever is interested can pop the hood, peer into my cranium, and see just what I’m up to now.
You’re most likely to enjoy reading this blog if you’re generally interested in exploring the meaning and process of creativity. It’s not specifically a blog about any one form of creative expression; I plan to write about my primary modes of expression but also roads that are, for me, less traveled by. Some days it will be music or writing, but other days the topic at hand might be creating a heart-centered business, sewing a soft-sculpture marotte, or simply approaching life’s challenges in ways that I haven’t previously tried.
So if this sounds like something you’d like to hear about, kick back, pour yourself a banana smoothie (or other drink of choice), and enjoy…and if I don’t write often enough for you, write me and give me a little nudge. It might mean I’m being so creative that I’m forgetting to write…or it might mean I’m losing sight of my creative focus and desperately need a little poke in the right direction!
