My Pull Towards Creativity

Do you ever get that feeling? A strong pull towards creativity… whatever and however that might look or feel for you?

I am definitely in that “pull”. It’s been brewing for a couple of months and I’ve been doing a lot of  inner “work” to help me navigate through the emotions I’ve been having because of it. It’s not a new feeling at all. It’s something that I’ve felt numerous times in my life and yet never allowed myself to fully explore. There are so many signs I’ve been getting from the Universe that this time I’m not ignoring them.

To help me, I’ve committed myself to “morning pages”… a journaling process  that Julia Cameron, author of The Artist’s Way recommends. (Thank you so much Talin!) And all I can say is, “WOW…..” That process in itself has been so amazing for me! Combine that with the online course I’m taking called “How to Awaken Your Spirit” by Suzanne Giesemann and “DOUBLE WOW…” Let me also warn, along with all this journaling comes a lot of uncomfortable feelings for me too! But for now, I’m okay just to sit in that unknown.

The Law of Attraction is certainly taking place for me. Over this past week creative individuals are crossing my path whom I know are presented to me for a reason. I also accidentally came across this online 20-min talk by Elizabeth Gilbert (author of Eat, Pray, Love) on the topic of nurturing your creativity. If you’re at all intrigued, you MUST make the time and watch her here on TED.com!

In the meantime, here’s a project I started a few days ago. I’m thoroughly loving it!

I’m still not sure what I’m going to do with these but for now, I’m just enjoying the process of making them and how it makes me feel.
