I have always had headphones on , music on…but I am learning the value of simply letting myself get bored , setting my brain free.

Valuable ideas come when I least expect them... Why do I not have my notebook or camera I often say to myself... Thank you Helen, really great pointers to think about🌻

I love these methods! Currently in the process of writing my book and these are also some things that work like magic for me! Lovely to see them all in a lovely article✨🥰. Also Aimee’s work is another common inspo for us! Funny how all our thoughts and insecurities as creatives is weaved together in her upcoming book👏🏽
