Just came across this from Neale Donald Walsch about creativity and consciousness – very apropos at the moment!
Creation is the highest form of Divinity, and your birthright. Truth is, you are creating all the time. The central question in your life is whether you are doing this consciously or unconsciously.
I’m enjoying my new Artist’s Way workshop immensely. Just by being on the course we are all paying more attention to how creative we are allowing ourselves to be.

Here’s another wonderful piece on creativity this time by Sark. I’ll be handing out copies of this to my participants tomorrow.

HOW TO BE CREATIVE
Stay loose.
Learn to watch snails.
Plant impossible gardens.
Invite someone dangerous to tea.
Make little signs that say YES and post them all over your house.
Make friends with freedom and uncertainty.
Dare to dream. Cry during movies.
Swing as high as you can on a swing.
Cultivate moods.
Refuse to be responsible for a day.
Do something for love.
Take a nap in the sun. Give money away.
Believe in magic.
Laugh. Celebrate every gorgeous moment.
Take moonbaths. Have wild imaginings.
Draw on the walls.
Giggle.
Open up.
Bless yourself.
Get wet.
Hug a tree.
Write a love letter: to yourself.
-Sark-
Ah yes, wonderful reminders! I regularly hug Bill and Bryan, 2 American Redwoods in the wood behind us – named after my old friends from Chicago. (These days I ask permission first which is also good!) Invite someone dangerous to tea appeals to me xxx
I love that you have named the trees Bill and Bryan! Julia has named our big beech tree Rupert. 🙂
