Creating vs. Consuming

We all enjoy certain creations of others. Music, art, videos, writing, ideas, teachings, quotes, stories... Things that resonate with us, can be an amazing source of inspiration, motivation, a form of self-care. They can help us with emotional work and learning.

Some of us though, can have a tendency to go into an extreme of mostly consuming. We can become overwhelmed with only looking outside of us for answers, enjoyment and wisdom. We can then feel stuck, not knowing why.

Therefore it's very important to dedicate a little time (at first) each day to creating. Creating anything that brings us joy or relief. By expressing ourselves through journaling, singing, dancing, drawing or writing, we are able to be focused inwardly. We can take what's part of our soul and bring it out to the world.

Unraveling our hidden truth and beauty, and sharing with others, not only helps us to evolve and keep discovering who we authentically are, but it can also help inspire those that we meet, to do the same for themselves.
