Are you taking life too seriously? (And what to do about it).

“Each person on this planet is inherently, intrinsically capable of attaining "dizzying heights" of happiness and fulfillment.”
- Wayne Dyer

Are you taking life too seriously?

The world can sometimes feel like a heavy, burdensome and serious place. Many of us feel stressed with jam packed schedules, distracted by our to do lists and weighed down by negative news stories.

I believe it is our birthright to connect to our natural state of peace and joy (a state we easily connected with as a child).

So why is finding a few moments each day to be fully present in creative play so important?

Creative expression can help us to:

~Relieve stress

~Move energetic blocks

~Stir up stuck feelings that need to come to light

~Build our creative muscles

~Help us find creative solutions to problems

~Connect us to joy

~Help us to slow down

~Quiet our mental chatter

~Strengthen our intuition

~Lighten us up and help us to stop taking ourselves so seriously!

Creative play works similarly to meditation. When we are immersed in a place of pure creativity, a space opens within us. From this space we get an opportunity to rest and recharge. Fresh, inspiring ideas and solutions arise effortlessly from this place of flow.

Give yourself a moment (even 10 minutes will do) to be creative everyday. Try something new. Do it for yourself and let yourself go! Watch how consistent creative play can connect you to a sense of magic, joy and mystery in everyday life.
