Comment on Radical Self-care – The Secret to Living a Creative Life by Thehappyphilosopher http://growingcreativekids.com/creativity-inspiration/radical-self-care-the-secret-to-living-a-creative-life/#comment-81 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 18:55:21 +0000 http://growingcreativekids.com/?p=2500#comment-81 Hey!

I really love this post, just stumbled upon your blog today via MMM forum.

It is amazing what a mindful pause and a breath can do for you! Making it a habit is the tricky part indeed. It reminds me of the informal day to day practice of the principals of mindfulness based meditation, which is a great technique.

If I may recommend a book you may like (it’s a favorite of mine): Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach. Check it out. I will be writing about this stuff too so come visit my corner of the internet if you are bored 🙂

Thank you for the recommendation, David! I have not read “Essentialism” but I will add it to my reading list 🙂

Everything does seem to hinge on diet, doesn’t it?

One suggestion to rediscover your creative time: Try to figure out what is getting in your way. Is it a mental block? Not having enough time? Not having enough energy? Loss of motivation? Not feeling supported? Then identify one single thing you can do TODAY that will help you. I know I tend to feel very isolated in my creativity, so having an accountability partner I meet up over Skype has really helped me be motivated and feel connected.

Well worth a read if you haven’t already – it dovetails nicely with a lot of what you wrote.

My main self-care issue is diet. When I’m eating well, most everything falls into place. My own creative time has been withering away but I haven’t quite figured out what my issue is.

It was fun reliving it through your blog. I loved the story of the lady climbing the mountain and how the hype-man carried over to that part of the weekend. You should share this with Pete.
