Stay present with healthy priorities daily, by @paulcarterart

Stay present with healthy priorities daily.

I am reminded the importance of having healthy priorities in the mornings before I start my day.

@paulcarterart

When I first wake up, I like to do some basic stretching and movements before I get out of bed

Depending on how my body feels, I will do a head and neck, rotation, and stretching at least two sometimes three times a week.  I also have a hand pressure point that I do along with my breathing meditation once or twice a week..

It’s important to flush the system in the morning. This is what I use with water and lemon with a couple, shakes of cayenne pepper, cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground garlic. 

I also include 17 vine, ripened whole foods, powders.

In my first drink. The water content is between eight and 10 ounces. The next one consist of electrolytes and amino powders.

I also make a large smoothie between 15 and 20 ounces with a some more of the 17 fine ripen fruit and vegetables, powders. I also add some cacao, Chia, seeds, hemp seeds, ground flaxseed, meal along with a protein powder I drink this 1-3 hours later depending on my daily activities.

This is my morning fluids and fuel till 1030to 1130 depending on what I’m doing.

I have been on this regime for the last 10 years consistently going back to 2011 for most it.

Do what works for your mind and body. The key is being consistent and discipline to do it..

The above art image is a great reminder of the importance of staying present and being present with healthy priorities.  I have 2 to 4 different breathing and meditation exercises that I change them up. The one that is most consistent is a breathing humming or chanting meditation..

Everyday is a new adventure San Clemente , Surfboards & art by #paulcterart

Saved from the fire into a custom freehand painting by Paul Carter 

We are not here to simply survive. We are here to grow forward planting the positive seeds and thrive daily. 

This piece of wood was cut from a larger piece that was saved from becoming firewood.

I am reminded the importance of being present and choosing healthy thoughts and patterns and activities that empower one’s self. 

It’s very important with conscious awareness to clear the filters that are no longer empowering you your mind, spirit, body and soul.  Learning in the silence and solitude are the keys to stay grounded and process the unhealthy conditioned thoughts habits. 

I remember when I was in the single digits of life. A time of the wonder of life the adventure of learning and exploring nature.  A time of growing up and learning to tell time.  To ride a bike to write your name to math etc.

Growing up we learn and get inspired by parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles brothers sisters, friends, neighbors, so many levels so many stories, so many experiences, .

Keep the creative fire stoked. No validation required or approval..  remember we reap what we sow so plant positive seeds daily for yourself and others, and watch it grow from the inside out.

New life art by @paulcarterart

Embracing creativity daily art by

This painting was created in 2005 originally.  Below, you will see a video and two images of the process of adding lighter colors and more detail to the original painting.

Here’s a video that will give you a closer look at the colors and the detail of the paint and highlights.

This was the first layer of lightning up the original darker colors.

The painting size is 13.75 x 16 on wood using acrylic paint and paint pens on the updated version..

This is one from the archives that I was inspired to add some more highlights.

The final version of the revived painting from 2005.

Life without any validation @paulcarterart

Lifee without any validation.

Paulcarterart

Imagine being completely present and free from all validation.

It’s October 30, 2025 this is a spontaneous captains log at one of my favorite places. I am sharing this after a break on a new sketch that was started on 10– 14 –2025.

It is not the sketch you see below.  I date all my art pieces from paintings to sketches and surfboard’s. 

Imagine, living a life without any comparing or any approval from others.

There is so much conditioning that we all carry from our ancestors from our parents from our families and friends.

So ask yourself, is it ego or confidence that you live your life from?  Ego is the constant need for approval and validation from others.   

Confidence is the freedom that comes through the awareness of breaking the chains of the many layers of conditioning.  Knowing one self is a daily journey.

The sketch below will resonate for some and for others your perception will be either positive or negative.  

Ask yourself by staying present what feelings am I having?

Its all conditioning or insecurity that brings up the negativity.  Check your perception and you will see.

Thanks for following the journey. 

Have a great day and remember no validation required. Keep the creative fire stoked..
