The Ultimate Energy Source For Creative Expression

Is it really possible to recapture the possibility, promise and creativity of our youth? In a word: Yes! Within your inner well lies an infinite reservoir of creativity, innocence, awe and wonderment… the same qualities that made our youth filled with so much promise and opportunity. Being able to tap into that space as an adult brings with it endless possibility. Not only does it support you with creative intelligence, resourceful problem solving and out-of-the-box thinking, according to Dave, it also serves as a catalyst for an infinite supply of energy that enables you to accomplish all the things you have the desire to with a level of presence and engagement that seemed unavailable without access to the well. In this episode: * Where does creative intelligence come from? * How does seemingly limitless energy support the entrepreneurial spirit? * What does it feel like to reconnect with that youthful part of ourselves? * Is that youthful energetic innocence still there after we become an adult? * How can the Inner Well facilitate healing on a holistic level? * Why is creativity so important to our quality of life? * How does TM provide access to that childlike wonderment where creativity sparks from? * How does a regular TM practice help you accomplish all the things you desire to AND provide the idea engine for consistent momentum? * What does life look like before and after TM  for the creative, entrepreneurial spirit?

Catching Big Fish: TM, Creativity & Authentic Living with Criss Cain

In this episode, Donielle sits down with Criss Cain — tour photographer, videographer, podcast host, and right-hand person to rock legend Ann Wilson of Heart — to talk about how Transcendental Meditation found its way into his life and what's unfolded since. The conversation covers creative breakthroughs, the courage it takes to be authentic in a buttoned-up industry, and what it's like to warm up a sold-out arena crowd with stand-up comedy — all by staying effortlessly in the moment. The David Lynch thread Lynch's influence runs throughout the episode — from his MasterClass metaphor about fishing for ideas at different depths, to his famous quote: "Meditation makes you more and more you." Criss reflects on what that has meant in practice: more space, slower speech, more self-trust, and a low tolerance for inauthenticity in an industry full of it. In this episode you'll find: * How a chance meeting over David Lynch sparked Criss's TM journey * The morning routine (yes, it involves dancing to Britney Spears) that changed how he creates * How TM directly fueled the launch of his podcast After Dinner Thinks with Ann Wilson * The story of cold-emailing Ann Wilson's manager and nine years later walking her on and off stage every night * What it's like to do stand-up comedy in arenas with 15 minutes of prep — and why TM was his secret weapon * What the mantra actually is (and why it having no meaning is the whole point) * David Lynch's "ideas are like fish" metaphor and why it still resonates "If there's love, it's fine. Always." — Criss Cain ---------------------------------------- Connect with Criss: * Podcast: After Dinner Thinks with Ann Wilson — Spotify & YouTube * Instagram: @thecrisscain [https://instagram.com/thecrisscain] ---------------------------------------- Dive in each week for real talk on meditation, meaning and modern life.
