Holiday Relaxation Tip
of the Week by Bryan Brewer, Producer, Self-Guided.com
Today's holiday relaxation tip (from Self-Guided.com's popular Top Ten Tips for Reducing
Holiday Stress) is a way you can stimulate your own creativity and make
gift-giving a more meaningful exerience.
5. Tap into your natural
creativity and create a hand-made gift.
In addition to fostering a deeper connection between you and the recipient, making a gift
by hand can also be a calm, meditative experience, centering you and bringing you more
fully into the present moment. It can also provide an important outlet for you to express
your creativity.
The following excerpt from Joel and Michelle Levey’s
book Simple Meditation and Relaxation provides some helpful
insights on recognizing your natural creativity:
For those of us who have a strong personal
story line that runs, "I’m not creative," or for those who view imagination
or visualization as unhealthy practices, the following "self-test" will help
illuminate the innately creative nature of the mind. On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being
"not at all," and 10 being "most of the time," ask yourself the
following questions:
How good am I at worrying about things?
How often do I notice judgements and
projections in my mind about people – those I know, those I don’t know, and even
about myself?
How vividly do I dream?
How often do I notice that I am lost in my
thoughts or daydreams?
If you know how to worry, pass judgment,
project your fantasies about people you don’t even know, or get lost in you thoughts,
then congratulations – you have experience with the creative powers of the mind.
