Spring Simple
Spring arouses thoughts about renewal in writing. Take an opportunity to consider how to prepare for writing rejuvenation.
Keep it SIMPLE:
S: Savor the growth around you in daisies, daffodils, crocuses, and tulips. Watch nature’s daily progress. See how the birds and insects prepare for spring.
I: Invest in your imagination. Forget the Stock market and the world’s concerns. Imaginate each moment. Make discoveries, connections and write. write. write.
M: Meditate in your own way. Observing your breath creates awareness and relaxation. Focus on it for one or two intervals during the day. Sit comfortably, breathe in six times and out six times. Gradually extend your exhalations. Try for a fifteen minute period where you erase the jumble from your mind. Let thoughts flow by like clouds.
P: PLAY. Distract yourself with fun and frolic.
L: Let go. Enjoy humor and spread it around.
E: Eat healthy foods and Exercise.
Spring into YOU! Believe in yourself and your writing. It will grow stronger when you add your own spring fervor.
Creative Write: Find a word (sycamore, pelican, dandelion, salmon) and create your spring renewal with suggestions for each letter. Have FUN!
