At last week’s Studio Session, we talked about the Spaciousness that is required to live a creative life. With my kids back in school I am feeling the extra spaciousness of September, not just the physical space of fewer bodies in the house but brain space. With a fewer things on my mental load, suddenly there is room for creativity to flow in.
Creativity simply does not thrive when our lives are busy and our brains are full.
Do you have the spaciousness to live your best creative life?If not, can you create a little bit more? Here are a few ways you can create some spaciousness in your life:
1. Remove physical clutter. – Clearing physical space has the added benefit of freeing up brain space as we can stop thinking about all the clutter that needs to be cleared!
2. Create routines– Routine is grounding. It eliminates the decision fatigue that drains our mental energy.
3. Journal- Write down all of the random thoughts you are holding in your head, freeing up that precious brain space for other things.
4. Use your calendar– Get some blocks of time on your calendar to get fully present with your creativity.
My personal favorite way to make sure I have to spaciousness for creativity is our monthly Studio Session. One of the perks of our Create-All-Year Membership Community. Our members have scheduled time on their calendar each month to create. On these calls we support and inspire each other. We have great conversations (like the one mentioned in this email) and we witness each other making progress towards our creative visions. It’s my favorite day of the month!
If some Spaciousness would support your creative life, then please consider joining our Membership Community. You can read all of the details HERE.
Love and Creativity,
