My Creative Rhythm

I am the queen of making to-do lists and scheduling, yet my impulses always get the best of me. Creative work is so hard to block off time for when you have so many other assignments that need attention, so I hope that this class will force me to create more structure in my schedule. My plan is to commit 30 minutes as part of an hour-long block of time that is dedicated to my creative work (some of my other classes also require creative work). I feel most creative in the evening, so this will take place before I go to sleep. Because I notice that its typically my school stress and fatigue that keeps me out of the mood of creating, my invocation will be a mindfulness meditation of at least 5 minutes to help me sit at the end of the day and clear my head. Lighting some candles and putting on some R&B music with my noise cancelling headphones has also proven to be quite calming, so let’s hope that sticks!
