Hi Friends! Here’s a reminder that you are all still deeply creative souls, even though our industry continues it’s long slumber. So how are you honoring your own creativity in all of this downtime? How can you fill your “creative well” to stay spontaneous and innovative? I found this handy list on-line that might be useful:
Recently, I was telling someone about a fun practice I have to help me connect creatively in my every day life. I turn normal activities into “Magical Metaphors”. So, a brief walk outside can feel like an expedition and cooking dinner can be mixing ingredients not just for flavor, but also for success and happiness. Sounds a little out there, but, you’d be surprised just how much a small, seemingly insignificant, activity can feel like a transformative experience in the moment when you give it a dreamier context. If nothing else, it really does allow for you to be mindful in the moment.
Find ways everyday to connect to your creative spirit - you deserve it! And, what you choose to do doesn’t have to be connected to the arts, specifically. Write in a journal, stretch, breathe and love. Let yourself dream and fill that artist well with goodness! Gifted souls need fuel …and you are gifted.
Happy Monday! Holly:)
