Welcome to Sacred Vessel
Letters and conversations around creativity, curiosity, healing and being.
⁽ ⁾ Incomplete Circle within a Square by Robert Mangold.
Starting with the question of why and why now? It was a beautiful invitation that this first newsletter template did for my first entry.
I spend hours, honestly, days thinking in why to create this newsletter: how I will call it? What will I write about? with many other spiraling thoughts. I had an intuitive hit to create it but I wanted to have a logically reason to do so. Is funny how just the desire and curiosity of doing it wasn’t enough.
I was focusing so much on the form that I was moving farther and farther away from the reason why I wanted to do it in the first place, to be a vessel for my creativity and intuition. My inner child was eager to play, to experiment and here I was rationalizing everything, trying to control my self-expression because I didn’t trust myself enough to do it.
So, after seeing the signs from the Universe, being expanded and connecting the dots that were being put in front of me, I decide it this to be my playground, to learning by doing and building my confidence and self-trust by being, overcoming my fear of being seen by sharing.
So here I’m. I’m Liz, I’m a designer and art director. Lately I’m being reconnecting with my creativity and my inner artist, and I found that writing its the one thing that I’m sticking to, that I feel call to do and it comes easy to me and that’s why I decide to open this new chapter in my creative journey call ‘Sacred Vessel.’
Being creative or having creative practices reminds me of who I am, it connects me with a part of me that I sometimes forget. Is my path to self-realization and it has a therapeutic power, creativity as a healing practice.
Action is commitment.

Welcome to ‘Sacred Vessel’, I want this space to be as intuitive as it can be, to play and see what comes from that. Sometimes I would write in English or sometimes in Spanish too, I commit to a month newsletter but who knows, maybe more…. Here I would be talking about my personal reflections about my creative journey and being human, the struggles a I’m or had encounter, things that I’m trying, what inspires me, that I’m loving and honestly, whatever I feel call to share with you.
This newsletters aims to inspire you. When we choose to share what we make, we can become a source of inspiration to others and sharing creates connection.
So let’s this first letter be an invitation for you to share your creations too. Let's get out of the self-doubt zone together, nothing can grow there.
Thank you so much for joining me. If you are receiving this email, you are part of the ‘Sacred Vessel’ community and hopefully I would see you around.
With my gratitude,
Liz
