In love with the most creative app Steller

Was dreaming of tiny cute books that somehow had video and sound samples and animations and stills, since a child. All my published books had some reference or reaching to this format and suddenly my friend told me about Steller.

Making these little books changed my life this week. One part of recovery is to share positivity --with yourself and others. It is so primal to share stories in circles of people.

I'm so grateful for this freedom to use what i have, and to be contained or called to rise to this simple,
beautiful format. A playground for visual storytellers!

The stories on the site are diverse--so many ways to tell a story...

I did a book about Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche blessing teddy bears in Woodstock...a book about about climbing a mountain...and also, books in honor of FASHION WEEK.

Making the books spurred me on to some crude animation techniques. Fun!

 This week I entered one of Steller's weekly theme challenges and suddenly am at the number 13 spot of all the books viewed this week!

it is definitely quite a matter of luck, but I'm still excited about it!

Intention App: Just do it




 Say it. Touch the dot. Take action.

Premium version: Dot glows, spreads, becomes a radiant sun.
Opening bars of spirit-rousing music. 
Like this.
This.
This.
This.
Or this.
You
might prefer this
or this or this.

Customizable human, mythical creature, coach maniac, superhero or awesome angel appears before you, intoning words of encouragement: 
You are entirely empowered! Got your back! Give it a shot! You can, you will and you are doing it!
Or perhaps just blinks.

Next: Set out. Take the action. Do your best.

Then: Report back. Text or call someone. Thank your Higher Power. Put it in your progress book. Tell me about it, I care!

Finally: Reward! A little ding. A karma point. An inner glow.
An innocent treat.

  If the goal is possible, worthy, and brings you in line with
your true self--then every step you take towards it 
somehow makes it run towards you.
