How does one move out of an abusive marriage and transform her thinking so that she can manifest a wonderful marriage based on love, mutuality, and respect? That is the journey that Cleone took, starting with her debut as Chloe the Clown in 1994. Through her six clown characters (she calls herself a multiple personality of a deliberate kind), she sees each clown as representing different ages/stages of her life. And that each moment of our life is sacred, something to honor and accept. As a Caring Clown (versus a Circus Clown), she spread love and joy to countless people in hospitals, nursing homes, parade routes, workshops, putting loved ones into clown, etc. But what she found was the recognition of her own self-love and appreciation! She decided she didn't need to be a clown anymore and quit in 2004. What made her return to clowning in 2010? How is clowning a SACRED ART? How does that relate to life? Answers to these accompanied by 109 pictures and illustrations tell her story.

"THE CLOWN IN YOU" is a clowning manual for students, teachers and practitioners. It contains all kinds of valuable clown knowledge; both practical and theoretical. Within its pages readers will find all the basic principles of clowning, first-hand clowning experiences, tried and tested clown games and exercises, quotes from interviews Caroline held with professional clowns, examples of clown improvisations, and explanations of the clown philosophy underlying all the comic techniques used by clowns. The book thus provides an unprecedented insight into the heart of clowning and throws a fresh light on all the skills, audacity and dedication needed to encounter, encourage and set free one's clown. Caroline has worked with clowning from the inside out and the outside in. She writes from the perspective of a life spent investigating her art, both as a professional clown and as an international clown teacher. This is a must read for anyone wanting to learn more about the art and practice of clowning, or for anyone simply interested in becoming a healthier, happier and less inhibited person. ""Discovering your clown and allowing yourself complete freedom of expression is an addictive experience; an adventure sport, whose only drawback is that when you're on your way home you feel an urgent desire to keep on practising it."" CONTENTS The first three chapters introduce the reader to the art and craft of clowning as practiced by professional clowns throughout the world today. They also clarify all the misconceptions that have arisen around the clown that in reality hinder a student's ability to be funny. Chapters four to ten tackle specific areas of clown technique. Each chapter contains explanations of the reasons for, and reasoning behind, each element of the technique, plus guidelines and examples of how it all works on a practical level. Chapter eleven explores one of the least discussed aspects of clowning; the most common fears students face and how they can be dealt with. The final chapter examines the necessary ingredients for clowning success. It also covers the phenomenon of "flying," finding one's own unique comic wings. WHAT THE PROFESSIONALS HAVE SAID ABOUT THIS BOOK: " The Clown in You cuts past all the jargon and unhelpful generalizations about clowns and tackles the clown's creative process with the kind of insight that can only come from a seasoned performer. Highly recommended for both beginners and experienced clowns." "JOHN TOWSEN, author of "Clowns," director of The (Very) Physical Comedy Institute, U.S.A." "Caroline Dream's superbly documented 30 years of experience as a performer and trainer is an invaluable source of reference for professionals, hobbyists and teachers. One of the most illuminating and insightful clown development guidebooks that I have read." "ROB FLORENCE, physical theatre teacher at The Arts & Entertainment College, NL" "Every clown, aspiring or professional, should have this book in their library. It's a great resource for helping clowns discover deeper layers of their character and creating powerful material. Packed with invaluable gems for understanding and creating in the art of clowning." "ROB TORRES, clown, The Big Apple Circus, U.S.A." "In this book I've found fantastic exercises and material which will inspire clowns to play and, most importantly, help keep their idiot present." "AITOR BASAURI, Spymonkey, UK" "This book is a shortcut to your inner clown, a seductive invitation to joy and freedom, a lodestar for highly effective human development."" ANDRES AGUILAR, Clown, Founder of Risaterapia.org, MEX" "Caroline offers us her 30 years of clowning experience, disclosing a clown philosophy I fully concur with. I wholeheartedly recommend this book."" ANTON VALEN, clown with Cirque du Soleil (Alegria & Kurios), ESP

Author Cleone Lyvonne Reed, a clown for over 26 years, a clown instructor to 172 students, and the author of THE SACRED ART OF CLOWNING. . . AND LIFE! has created this fully illustrated book of her clown wardrobe, props, etc. to be sold in one bulk purchase. The energy in this collection is that of beauty, love, and caring, the philosophy in clowning promoted by Patch Adams, MD, the doctor clown whose story is told in the movie PATCH ADAMS, starring Robin Williams. Ideally a corporation or company would buy everything and hire Cleone to train a group troupe to clown in nursing homes, hospitals, and schools as part of their philanthropy program. OR a clown vendor could buy the whole lot for resale. The one exception to buying the entire collection would be to buy the WIMZIE costume. Wimzie was a "Sesame-Street-like" character in a short-lived Television program in Canada. The WIMZIE costume is like brand new. In addition to buying this book or viewing it on the Kindle program, one can to to blurb.com and see the book called "I've Got a Dream: For a Corporate Caring Clown Troupe" by Cleone Lyvonne Reed: https: //www.blurb.com/b/9506212-i-ve-got-a-dream NOTE: Most of the clothes were designed and sewn by Cleone herself. This collection has clothes for men and women, thin or heavyset, as well as for children. Some of the fun props are the stethoscope with a toilet plunger on the end of it, clown stilts, a little bicycle, and a big foam camera with a ping-pong-ball flashbulb attached to a fish line (a great parade prop).

There was a time when I was privileged to build a small sacred fire on a mound in the sacred circle for new moon ceremonies. The fire was an embodiment of the spirit made manifest for the group who came together to replenish their collective and individual spirits. It was my privilege to make pretty fires which danced as they burned. This task of mine was a sacred task and I took it seriously, but what I enjoyed most about the festivities was the joy and humor which infested all who participated. One of the many things I have experienced in my long life is the joy and laughter I have always associated with Native American activities. When Indians are together they laugh together, much more than I have noticed in gatherings of non-Indians, who have other cultural indicators of spirituality. Many Native traditions hold clowns and tricksters as essential to contact with the sacred. People prayed after they had laughed, because laughter tended to open one's mind and free up rigid preconceptions. So human animals had tricksters within the most sacred ceremonies lest they forget how the sacred comes through upset, reversal, surprise. The trickster in most Native traditions is essential to creation, to birth. And the heyokah, the booger, the clown, the neweekwe, the koshari, the contrary, was the sacred bringer of this laughter. The bringing of laughter to the group was often accomplished with a zany dance of pratfalls or patently absurd physical activities. There is a shared understanding of the need for this aspect of sacred dancing being necessary to open the spirits of the people, to prepare them to participate in the spiritual togetherness of the sacred circle. The sacred clowns of the Native Americans were very often overtly sexual in their "clowning"; so much so that in modern American society they would all be pilloried for sexual aggression. One must remember that these clowns were male, female, and bisexual. Their sexually explicit stance was their way of forcing their audience, the other members of their group, into a place of embarrassment which could be relieved only by laughter. Laughter was the weapon of change in an individual's anti-social behavior. Poking fun was the ultimate weapon of shaming. And because it produced laughter all could share in a release of tension caused by the wrongness involved. So when i finally found a thick, stiff nylon string to make string figures with I began to make dancing figures which became for me a series of "sacred clowns" personifying this crucial part of my cultural upbringing. This book is a partial record of my ongoing passion of creating touchstones of laughter, for reaching the spirituality within us all. inoli

Learn how this ancient spiritual practice can transform your relationship with yourself, with others and with God. “The practice of deep hospitality can help us step into a more vital, vibrant embrace of this great adventure we call life—which includes our relationship with God, however you might define God. . . . It is an invitation to walk through life with a liberating posture of receptivity, reverence, and generosity.” —from the Introduction We may think of hospitality as merely being polite to guests, but the ancients understood the profound potential hospitality holds for building and transforming lasting relationships—for binding families together, making strangers into friends, even turning enemies into neighbors. This practical book provides you with the tools you need to cultivate the spiritual power of invitation and welcome in your life. Guided by Rev. Nanette Sawyer, you will discover the qualities of hospitality—receptivity, reverence, and generosity—and how these qualities can significantly deepen your self-understanding as well as your relationships with others and with God. Drawing from sacred texts and spiritual practitioners from all faiths, this book also addresses the major stumbling blocks that prevent you from becoming truly hospitable.
