All life is art. Be fascinated, seduced, terrified, and compelled by transformation, creativity, and authentic self expression. Freedom for the human spirit and psyche is our collective aspiration and our birthright.
Dr. Laura Basha is the Founder and Creator of Whitebird Rising, a resource and guide for the transformational lifestyle. She received her BFA from Beloit College and has lived in northern California for decades.
Her creative path has moved through single motherhood, ministry study, and graduate work in counseling psychology, followed by a double doctorate in clinical and organizational psychology.
After building a successful consulting practice with leaders from Fortune 500 companies, Laura returned more fully to her artistic roots: as a published author and accomplished fine artist whose work lives in private collections in the United States and Australia.
The essence of her creative work integrates beauty, harmony, and spiritual understanding, expressed through archetypal and symbolic imagery, and offered in service of awakening to conscious choice and masterful living.
A contemplative gallery of writings, paintings, and symbolic inquiry.
Through poetry, reflection, and lived inquiry, Laura’s books invite a return to what has always been present, a quiet mind, an awakened awareness, and a deeper sense of purpose.

High-quality fine art prints of Laura Basha’s original paintings, created to preserve the depth, symbolism, and contemplative presence of the work.

Short, contemplative video reflections exploring what it means to be human, listening beyond thought, meeting life’s challenges with presence, and rediscovering peace beneath the noise.
