Reclaim Sundays as a day of reflection, insight and just a little laziness.
Learn to slow down, let go, experiment and play a little and just watch your creativity unfold!

Being creative isn’t all about making stuff and being good at it!
It’s way of seeing, feeling, listening, investigating and understanding the world.
Here follows 50 suggestions, exercises and projects to help you for a few hours once a week, unravel that ball of wool in your head you call ‘busy’, 'must' and ‘deadline’ and crochet it into that quirky Sunday jumper you may well love enough to want to wear on a weekday.

This is a personal account, with ideas and suggestions along the way of how to 'let go' of that critical bit of the brain and just see where it takes you. 

“Things are as they are. Looking out into it the universe at night, we make no comparisons between right and wrong stars, nor between well and badly arranged constellations.”
Alan Watts (Thinker and Interpreter of Zen Buddhism, 1915-1973)

“We should be mucking about all the time, because mucking about is enjoying life for its own sake, now, and not in preperation for an imaginary future. It's obvious that the mirth filled man, the cheerful soul, the childish adult is the one who has least to fear from life.”
Tom Hodgkinson (Author -The freedom manifesto)

“Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week”
Joseph Addison (English essayist, poet and Statesman 1672 -1719)

28 - make space

Meditation gives your mind the room to notice the intuitive and original moments that otherwise go unnoticed when we act from, well... habit.


I've noticed that when I do take the time to meditate regularly I, apart from other things become a lot less serious. 

When we see the humour in the everyday things around us, we naturally tune in to the absurd and unusual, and inevitably creativity will unfold. Light-Heartedness is an excellent frame of mind to keep the left brained critic from taking over and stifling creative thought.


Allowing the eyes to soft focus on a neutral surface and be aware of everything around it without focusing on any particular thing, you'll notice that your peripheral vision is increased and your sensitivity to what's there is really enhanced. 

Your mind slows down and your subconscious with it's natural creativity is given more space.
