5 ways to remove creative blocks

When you have that struggle to move forward working on what you are creating and you just feel blocked. Here are 5 ways that have really worked well for me, to get the creative energy flowing again.

1 - Trusting your ideas, now this seems obvious and this is something that you might hear a lot. When you go to actually take action, there is an emotional trigger that can make it difficult to do that. By taking a first step and become mindful, bringing awareness to your thoughts, writing them down and this is a great way to disidentify with the inner critic that goes on in your mind.

2 - Failing is a good thing, this isn’t something that defines you but understand that failure is part of the process. If your experiencing failures, it shows that you are challenging yourself and that’s when you will really develop.

3 - Who you become in the process is the most important part rather than the external result. By keeping this in mind, you won’t become as emotionally attached to artwork and you become more expressive as a result.

4 - Meditating on the emotional triggers after your session and setting an intention to become more self-aware relative to that.

5 - Embrace the way you are feeling and fully commit to the session. Meditation for 10 minutes or so beforehand and setting it as an intention during the meditation can help loads.
