4 Levels of Creator Consciousness
Hello Artists,
Do you ever feel a sense that there's a reason you’re here, even if it’s not entirely clear what that reason is?
Maybe you’re exploring your purpose or passion, testing the waters, and wondering, “What am I supposed to do?”
Or do you feel a growing awareness of the importance of expression, creation, and sharing something meaningful with the world?
In today’s Deep Diver’s Class, I’d like to share with you the roadmap I’ve discovered which has made a massive impact on my life, called the 4 Levels of Creator Consciousness. I feel a very special connection to this topic, and I've spoken about it many times in the past. It can really bring awareness to where you currently stand in your journey as a creator, and help you find honest, organic, and sustainable ways to up-level your consciousness—including the pitfalls that might slow you down.
To make this class as tangible and as actionable as possible, I imagined having a one-on-one conversation with myself at age 20 and did my best to share stories, tips and concepts that would set Young Darius up for maximum success as a creator.
My hope is that this audio will help you navigate around those traps, move more efficiently, and perhaps even progress further and faster than I did. I have also shared some written notes below to help you follow along and make things a bit easier to understand.
And lastly, there's some fun homework that will hopefully allow you to explore this week’s class at a deeper and more personal level. In case you want to go even deeper into this concept, here's a link to a post I made a few years ago on the same topic.
I hope you enjoy our class today.
Note: an important part of learning is engagement, and a key way to engage is by asking questions. If you have any questions about this or any of my other classes, I encourage you to click here for my "Ask Darius" link and ask away.
Additionally, if you are a member of Deep Diver, you also have access to me via text or voice note. You can ask me questions about this class—or really on anything related to creativity, confidence, self-expression, entrepreneurship, art, spirituality, and more!
This is a chance to receive direct mentorship and support from me. All you have to do is download the free Signal App and add “dariusbashar.11” as a contact.
4 Levels of Creator Consciousness
Hit play on the audio player below hear about the 4 Levels of Creator Consciousness, plus a list of accelerators and decelerators to help you along your journey.
Below I’ve included a diagram and two short-form lists you can use to follow along.
Frequency Accelerators
Exercise: it’s not about looks, it’s about consistency and discipline.
Plant medicine: it’s not for everyone, and should be done within ceremony and with deep reverence and care.
Death: hurts like hell, but death offers many profound gifts that can change your consciousness.
Birth: this phenomenon creates an opening between the spiritual and physical realms, which can be powerful.
Community: opening your social group can be uncomfortable at first, but if you step up into a group of individuals working at a higher consciousness, that’s often the path to greatness. The wrong group can actually decelerate your consciousness.
Frequency Decelerators
Social media: Everyone is different, but if you feel drained and can’t stop, there is something leaking your energy here, e.g. comparison, competition, and chasing.
News: I’m not saying you should be oblivious, but be conscious of where you’re getting your news from and what the agenda is.
Porn: Sex can be fun and a major source of creative energy, but so much of the porn industry is founded on exploitation and manipulation, and this is a major consciousness decelerator.
Violence (even fictional): filling our minds with scenes and stories of violent characters and circumstances feeds our consciousness with terror, mistrust and fear.
Alcohol: this one is polarizing because people love having a drink here or there, but I share a story in the audio with my thoughts on this topic.
Numbing agents: this includes weed, and anything else that numbs our feelings. This will slow your frequency and drop your consciousness level. As artists, our feelings are essential to our ability to create deep and meaningful art. (Remember we are not our feelings, but we want access to all of them.)
HOMEWORK
Make a list of your own Frequency Accelerators and Frequency Decelerators. Try to find at least 3 of each.
Bonus: a Super Accelerator is one or two things that create a massive impact on virtually all other elements of your life, and can help you take a BIG leap from one consciousness level to the other.
Can you identify one Super Accelerator in your life?
I hope you enjoyed today’s Deep Diver’s Class.
If you have any ideas for future classes, I’d love to hear them.
Big love,
D
