Ok, hang in there for a wee with me... Just a minute...
What does the word 'creative' mean and why does it matter? One definition of creativity from dictionary.com is "resulting from originality of thought, expression, etc." I like this definition because to me it means everybody is creative; everybody has customary thoughts and ideas. Where citizen get hung up is while the expression of those thoughts and ideas. Expressing the idea can take many forms, from speech-making to painting a photograph to composing music to putting together our own unique style to cooking a new method to painting your bedroom bright orange...you get the picture!
Why is all this important, especially to women and girls? also being fun, one very prominent presuppose is because there is an innate association in the middle of creativity and intuition. How do these two associate in a meaningful way? Being able to express our creative idea in a manner that stays true to our customary idea is an rehearsal in self-esteem building. Learning to rely on our intuition is a key element to building self-esteem. And all this starts in the brain, specifically in the right side of our brain. Our culture, legitimately our world, values left brain mental (logic, structure, verbal skills, fact-based decision-making). Therefore, from an early age, our right brain (creativity, perception, visual, spatial), gets ignored and over time, becomes figuratively 'flabby' from underuse, if not stimulated. Our educational principles focuses practically entirely on left brain functions in math, science, and language. Due to the need to growth or utter student scoring in these areas, as well as a lack of funding, the focus on 'right-brain' curriculum such as art and music is greatly reduced or eliminated all together.
So, how does all this work? Well, the right brain comes up with an idea; the idea can be connected to a Diy project, solving a qoute at work, the arts, how to settle a conflict, etc. If you are inspired to activity by the idea, the brain then comes up with way(s) to express the idea. The brain also edits the separate ways it might express the idea, as well as the actual expression of the idea, to make sure the end product legitimately does transport the customary idea. As we work straight through this process, we unconsciously store the caress of the process in our knowledge bank where it can be recalled later, partially straight through intuition, in other idea expression experience.
Consciously choosing artistic ways to rehearsal creativity and intuition puts both into overdrive! Now, you may be saying "but I can't even draw a stick figure"! I say forget that internal negative voice and go with the flow! If you don't know where to start, you can begin with something as simple as a doodle coloring; you know, the thing you did when you were a kid where you drew connecting squiggles all over the paper and then chose your favorite colors to color in each area? Yeah, that one! First, draw the squiggles all over the paper. Now, consciously choose your favorite colors and begin to color in the areas. While you're doing this, think about how nothing you do in this rehearsal can be 'wrong'; associate with your 'inner child' and let it flow! When you're done, put your photograph in a prominent place...on your desk, on the front of the fridge, anywhere you can see it and continue to reconnect with the experience.
And when you're ready, take a bigger step...more on that in following articles!
