The Power of a Good, Long, Concentrated Dose of Shhhhhhh.
/Hello you wonderful lionhearts. How is your Distraction Detox going? (If you missed Monday's explanation, check it out! It's not too late!)
I hope that you're feeling a little more space in your thinking and your attention, and that your creativity is showing up in bigger and brighter ways.
Oooh. That's always worth the effort, isn't it?
It TOTALLY is. High five.
So I'm just going to leave you with two things today. A lovely quote, and a lovely image.
The quote is from Elizabeth Berg, and I keep going back to it, because it sounds so magical to mega-introverted me. She says:
I believe that solitude, perhaps more than anything,
breeds creativity, breeds originality.
That's what we're after this week, right?
Finding our way back to our originality. Re-encountering the mass of untapped creativity we each have.
And the source for that: Solitude.
This little Distraction Detox is about protecting our precious mental space, so we can get back to a kind of solitude of the mind.
A short, healthy break from so many of the other voices that surround us.
... Which includes mine.
So I'll stop chatting, and instead, let's look at these waves:
Mmmmmm.
I hope you have a super restful weekend—brimming with creativity.
See you on Monday.
