I’ve recently discovered the immense benefits of claiming some major down time for myself. When things get a little crazy (as they often do these days), I realized that all it takes is a step back for things to find their natural flow again. Saying ‘no’ to certain things has allowed a spaciousness back into my life. Having time to doodle…and read…and journal…and daydream…without the frenzied pace that has ominously crept into our daily existence, has put unnecessary stress in the back seat and has let playfulness and creativity take the lead once more. Oftentimes the best ideas come in when we’re doing nothing at all 🙂
