Making Time For My Creative Soul

Last week I realised that I hadn’t picked up a paintbrush since Β I finished 21 Day Painting meditation challenge one month ago and then slacked off.

My creative soulΒ was not getting it’s daily hit. When I do a challenge I just get up each morning and head to the studio and this gives me a great start to the day. I had started Β a new word art series with a consistent daily activity.

When I saw Jennifer Lee wasΒ Β joiningΒ Art Every Day 2014Β (AEDM) last week, I decided to check it out. I discovered that Leah Piken KolidasΒ had been doing this each November since 2004. Β Leah started AEDM to keep herself accountable and IΒ am doing the same. IΒ love that I am making time for me and my creative soul. I am sharing mine each day on Instagram, so make sure you follow me there. maybe IΒ will start posting here daily?

  1. When I decided to write a book based on my coaching earlier this year, I found out how much I love to write non-fiction. Still don’t like the marketing part. I have so many ideas it was great to start getting them down. Now I find if I’m away from it too many days, I get a little cranky. I’m trying to be sure I carve out writing time every day even if it’s just editing or reviewing what I’ve written. It’s hard to be so disciplined though.

    As always, I love your art and how you use it behind your quotes.

    1. Hi Diane,
      I get the marketing bit- something I have yet to love, although when I had my textile art biz I used to enjoy it. I find doing something that I love first thing makes it easier to embrace and maybe even come to love the things I often want to tear my hair out over.

  2. I really need to make more time for my creative soul, I feel it dying inside slowly… as though a drain has been opened. It’s as though negative energy is cloaking me like a wraith, and I am burdened by it’s weight. I know what I need to do to allow the sunshine and joy to break through the inky night that is burdening me but the holiday seasons have brought with it some stressful busy times, and a family plagued by medical problems… any advice at all?

    1. Hi Becca,
      When we take just a little time for ourself it help release some of that negative energy. I know this might sound tough, but I have needed some tough love to get to where I am now. So often we have to release to make the shift.

      What if you took some time in the quiet of the morning to meditate- you have some of my free meditations? What is your creative soul crying out for you to do? You can email me you replies
      Namaste xx

    1. Yes Sonja, that’s how i started again, when a psychic friend suggested I go and buy a coloring book etc and I said I had a room full of paints etc- and that’s how my whole new painting came about back in 2011 and then I used my art as a healing journey.
      Get then our and get you creative juices flowing again xx

  3. Suzie, I am so grateful to be connected with you, and your consistent inspirations.

    Right now I am so focused on my health that I feel like my creative self is going a bit hungry. Reading this allows me to know that the flame may be lowered, but it hasn’t gone out.

    You may think you’re writing for the masses, but I know that you’re writing for me! πŸ™‚

    Blessings,
    Sue

    1. Thanks Sue, your comment does make my heart sing. Well i might starting writing more for you.
      I found that although my main job for those 3 years was to heal and i found that my creativity- my painting and sand writing was part of that healing process- maybe just give yourself 5 mins a day to doodle, draw, write with colured markers and see what your heart wants to tell you.

    1. Thanks Marty,
      Yes I am accepting that my art is my gift and there will be more of it coming. Yes it is a lovely way to start the day and the past 2 days I have been getting up early to learn about using Instagram to promote my art so I have been painting before I go to bed, a new experience for me. xx

  4. As a person who has a lot swirling around in my head at any given time, I appreciate the reminder of the Chagall quote you shared, thank you.

    My creativity doesn’t include a paintbrush – instead I take photos (with my phone not to over-complicate things or to trick my mind into thinking that I’m trying to be professional about it and get all self-critical creating blocks) and use them to create my image quotes. It’s where my heart and mind and intention come together.
