Greetings!
Was February a good month for you? My son turned
25 (does that make me old?) and this month, I hit
53! I think it's going to be a wonderful year!

Creativity |
|
Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of
creativity. It's self-conscious, and anything self-
conscious is lousy. You can't try to do things. You
simply must do things.
- Ray Bradbury
Ray Bradbury should know. So much of creativity is
allowing yourself some calmness - a little island of
peace to allow the ideas some room to grow. Here
are some exercises to help your ideas flourish.
Breathe deeply. You'll be surprised how
much better
you'll feel and how many more creative ideas will flow
into your head if you will breathe from your abdomen
rather than your chest. Imagine that you can pull air
into your belly button. Breathe in through your nose
and push your stomach out. Then breathe out
through your mouth and pull your stoamch in. Do
this three times to a slow count of ten (five in, five
out).
Spend 20 minutes each day in silence. Use
this time just for you - either in
prayer, meditation, or light exercise. Chatting with
someone on the next treadmill doesn't count. This
needs to be quiet time.
If you think it, ink it. I heard this at a
recent
workshop and I just adore it. Keep a notebook with
you all the time and jot down any idea that occurs to
you. You'll be surprised how many more ideas will
come to you once you've let your muse know that
you care enough to capture them.
Do puzzles. Word puzzles, number puzzles,
logic
puzzles - all of these help to exercise your mind and
boost your creativity.
And here's one for this month. What is a two word
anagram for the word ASTRONOMERS that means
roughly the same thing?
Email your answer to me. I'll draw one winner from
the correct responses for a gift certificate at one of
my favorite restaurants.
