This is part 4 in what is now a 4 part series of how I am working through some creative blocks this week...
I started out feeling so much PRESSURE it was hard to do the things I wanted to do. Then I just had a lot of FOG, also stopping me from doing those things. Then I found the solution to everything which was to be more DEEPLY PRESENT in the PROCESS, not so focused on outcomes.
Last night the final piece of this puzzle landed.
I was sitting in bed with my journal and still feeling like, even with all of the clarity and insight I have received this week, I still feel somehow disconnected from the MAGIC of the creative process.
I put my marker down and picked up my phone.... and caught myself.
(Quick plug for the Anti-Doomscroll Meditation + Journaling Kit which is a good tool use in this situation)
Why do I want to scroll right now? What's going on here?
I burst into tears.
And then I kept crying.
For quite a while. I have not had a good cry like that in a very long time.
There was just so much I was carrying that I wasn't fully feeling.
Which seems to be becoming more common these days as we have more and more to carry and less time and space to process it all.
But we can't be DEEP enough in our creative process to be in the ALCHEMY if we are full of un-felt feelings.
Today I feel a lot more clear AND spacious. I have the inner capacity to go deep into the creative process, deep enough to get at the magic.
