It doesn't have to be anything elaborate or time consuming, just a routine that will help tell our brain that it is time to get started on our creative work. This helps us to calm down and become focused on our task and allows us to have a positive mindset while we work on our projects.
When I am ready to sew, I like to put some nice smelling oils in my diffuser, then turn the page in my Daily Art book to the current date. I take a minute or two to read the quotation and look at the painting for the day and just think about what the artist was trying to capture, the mood and the colors. It takes just a short time, but I find that it clears my mind and enables me to begin my daily sewing with an optimistic mind and calm spirit. It's as simple as that!
I often also find myself tidying up before I start sewing, but I really want to make more of an effort to tidy up at the end of my sewing sessions so I can start my days with a clean(er) slate!
Do you have a Creative Ritual? What do you do?
My daughters got me the Young Living starter kit for Mother's Day last year, and I am really glad that they put me on this journey. I have been happy to have access to products that are healthier for my body and to be able to reduce my use of the many toxin filled products I had in my home previously. I really enjoy their cleaning products, and use several of the dietary supplements - and definitely feel the benefits of aromatherapy in my daily life, I feel more relaxed and sleep better than I have in years. I'm not interested in building a large business out of selling their products, but I definitely enjoy them and wanted to share that with you. If you are interested in purchasing their products or signing on as a member you can use my referral link and I do get credit for that, but other than that I have no plans to spam you with constant talk about this, just a one time share and shout out to something that I feel benefits my life :) Click here to see more about Young Living oils.
