mindfulness exercises for creative renewal

Living a creative life requires courage, self-trust, humility and the willingness to be a beginner, to be unpolished and awkward when you’re learning. It requires practicing in public and getting over the fear of the critical gaze. This exercise asks you to practice beginner’s mind, develop a fresh perspective, and look at old and new things from a place of curiosity. 

Beginner’s mind helps you: 

• Become more open to your ideas, insights, and impulses

• Become a more flexible thinker able to access new possibilities 

• Become more comfortable leaning into your curiosity and asking questions which makes progress easier

• Appreciate process more than results

• Change the way you think about learning curves and developing your craft

• Become less self-conscious about being vulnerable
