Creativity is an asset that can be cultivated and developed. Some ways that strengthen creativity are:
A friendly word with neighbors and good chats with friends. Human connection is highly stimulating.
Nature encounters and immersions for any length of time.
Bike Rides; Skates; walks or runs can be tranquilizing and/ or invigorating.
Peace, and peaceful time. Walking by the water, taking hikes; quieting the mind are all beneficial to creativity, and desirable to incorporate into one’s routine.
Cleanliness and order. It is really easy to make a big mess during the creative process, but starting with a blank canvass, or a clean workbench so to speak can be extremely helpful in getting started with a creative work because of the space. Space is essential for creation.
Ideas to kindle the inner fire of creativity:
Go on a Creative Retreat for however long you can manage it.
Taking creative retreats to explore new places and green areas with lots of trees. The aire is so much better and nourishing and it’s sweet to commune with the wildlife and it’s so inspiring and feeds creativity and the creative spirit. Nature is the best medicine. Tree canopies are so favorable to the senses and the planet and the aire.
Find a change of scenery. It’s been fun taking care of some really cute bunny rabbits back up in the Pacific Northwest. Environment is so important, and as people, we can do a lot to create our own environment, a bubble of sanctuary. Creating an environmental bubble and how to do that is a rabbit hole worthy of exploration.
Protect your creative time.
Find your sanctuary and spend time there creating from your heart, do whatever it takes to carve out creative time to explore your unique expression.
Have positive creative like minded friends, they are a blessing and they are fire to your creativity. Co-arting is an awesome synerguistic activity for buddies to make dates for on a regular basis.
Regarding creating: just start with your intention. From there, take good actions and your mind will get on the track of producing your unique works. You will find yourself having bright ideas that will take your projects to the next level at all sorts of times: like driving, while out for a walk or run, in the bath. Just start.
