CONCOCTIONS: the anti recipe (?)

Concoctions: The anti recipe? no.

after giving it thought, I realize concoctions inevitably become a recipe in its own way.
(also, can being “for” something stop meaning we have to be “"anti” something else?)
((but to be honest, anti recipe was my immediate initial thought. lol))

intuitive cooking? based off a lifetime of tasting experiences, thanks to recipes (ironically).

okayyyyyyyy. so what’s the difference and why do I feel so averse to one over the other?

After all, a recipe is just the fine tuned & recorded end point of intuitive concocting.

Essentially it’s all the same thing and the only thing that’s different is our relationship to our perception of the words and their implications.

They are both beautiful.

But this share will be about my deep dive into embracing my instincts in the kitchen and letting go of forcing myself to do it any other way.

Every single thing you do has this innate wisdom to it.
There's a strategy that you're tapping into for whatever you do when you're doing it instinctually- in the way that is natural to you.

Instead of looking around at how it’s outside of the norm, the way it's usually done, or the way that most people understand- instead of using that as a weapon against yourself,

maybe take a breath and look at whatever it is you're doing through this lens of neutrality.

Maybe it’s not subpar.
Maybe it’s more than enough.
Maybe it’s fucking genius.

0:00 If I'm going to do the thing. I don't love doing. Let me love the way I choose to do it. Every single thing you do. It has this innate wisdom to it. There's a strategy that you're tapping into for whatever you do when you're doing it instinctually, right? In the way that is natural to you. And instead of looking around at how it is maybe outside of the norm and not the societal expectation or the way it's usually done or the way that most people understand, instead of using that as a weapon against yourself. Maybe take a breath and look at whatever it is you're doing through this lens of neutrality Just take the breath and just say, Hmm.

0:47 Assume. Wisdom in your instinct. Stop assuming shame Can we shift from assuming shame and assuming. This hunched shoulder type of energy around whatever it is we're doing for me, it was cooking. Okay. And can we start assuming this. Power. This natural instinct that we have and respect that. And, and see how much more enjoyable and how much more energy flows. When you own that about yourself. Help Me See is a podcast dedicated to the art of seeing.

1:29 It's a space for the restless visionary with an insatiable desire to create the life and work you're meant for. My name is Bianca Lea Mora, and I'm a photographic artist, a mother, and a coach who's transformed my fear of loss into power, art, and philosophy. One of the scariest quotes I never want to say is, I wish I knew at the time, but I truly believe that we have the innate ability to bring our wise 2020 hindsight to our now. You can deeply experience your nostalgia now, while it's actually happening, with no regrets. All you have to do is see.

2:11 In this show, we laugh, we cry, we get inspired, we overshare, we have life changing conversations around making meaning, self discovery, and shedding all the BS layers in order to reconnect to our own sacred vision. Seeing yourself is an essential key to living powerfully. You are the vessel, the lens that filters absolutely everything in your life.

3:13 Let's commit to seeing and consciously creating what only you can in your one and only life. Let's dive in.
