Opening the Doorway




"Non-judgment quiets the internal dialogue, and this opens 
once again the doorway to creativity."
Deepak Chopra

Multi tasking while we chat on the phone and attempt to continue with our work.  I would think neither task would be as potent if we tended to things one at a time.  The same can be said for our inner chatter which unfortunately can be non-stop.  As our emotional brains rant and rave, there leaves very little room for our creativity to get through to realization.

Creative ideas are known to pop up when our monkey brains are still.  Walking in nature many people are focused on the beauty and creativity joins. Driving down the road our mind is focused allowing lofty thoughts to rise. Listening to music, the clattering has ceased and creativity can flow with the musical notes.  As we sleep without distractions, our dreams can carry us to scenarios sparking revelations!

It is difficult to quiet our minds as the more we try, the worse they sometimes get.  Like anything else, we need to invest in training our selves with just minutes in the day.  Breathe in fresh air through your nose. Hold. Exhale through the mouth, blowing out stagnant air and thoughts.  Pause.  The mind will learn from the 'hold'  and in time one can stretch that 'hold'' into lengthier space of silence and insight.
