Insight Can’t Be Outsourced:  Creative Thinking is a DIY Effort

Creativity for any purpose and for any reason is a sacred act that must be honored and nurtured if it is to thrive and grow.  Everyone holds deep reserves of creativity within them. For some people, it can flow uninhibited whenever it is called upon.  For many of us, accessing our creativity is a little more problematic – engaging with right brain activity is an emergence into the unknown and can be nerve-wracking and intimidating.  But we all need to be comfortable with that mysterious landscape and use it to our full advantage for idea making, inspiration, and even practical problem solving.

• Use simple everyday rituals to generate creative juices and keep them flowing

Mindfulness For Transitions:  The Secret to Success in Times of Crisis

The world around us can certainly feel chaotic, damaged, and irretrievably broken at times, and this high level of angst is seeping into our personal lives in epic proportions:  divorce, foreclosure, addiction, illness, bankruptcy, job loss, aging parents - these are just some of the events that can wreak havoc on our lives and cause enormous stress.  But the truth is, all of life is transition from one state to the next. If one thing is certain about life (besides death and taxes!) it is that everything changes. The key is to remain hopeful and optimistic when we least feel like it.

Knowing how to use Mindfulness in Action can help us surf through even the most turbulent waters of transitions. It can help us to nurture the thoughts and actions that will enable us to shed light upon a new and positive path and help us meet any challenge with strength, courage, grace and determination.
