   I believe that creativity and spirituality are interconnected. Being creative is simply relaxing into that place in you and connecting with this "infinite intelligence". It is a gift to each of us, waiting to be discovered. We are all talented beings, because we all have access to the same infinite source. We are all richly endowed, naturally. Here are 9 practices I personally use to help me in "cultivating" creativity.
   Being Relaxed — Take a moment to do something that makes you happy; that brings you joy; that you love; that centers you. Meditate, take a walk, go for a swim, read something that puts you in a good mood, journaling — writing down your thoughts (this can be so rewarding).
   Gratitude — Thinking about all things you are grateful for produces a positive energy flow and vibration. As you feel the love in your heart for all the wonderful blessings and gifts in your life, you will instantly relax and feel all warm-and-fuzzy inside. In that moment of warmth and love, you are open to creative energy.
   Tickling Your Imagination — Imagination is highly visual. Close your eyes, and imagine that you are in a scene, any scene. Pick your ideal scene, practice seeing the details of your environment in this scene. See the colors, the textures, touch something. What does it feel like? What do you hear? What do you smell? What is the temperature like? Etc.
   Being in the Moment — Every outstanding musician or artist will tell you that when they are creating great music or art, there are no thoughts; they are completely in the moment, and experiencing flow. You can practice present moment awareness by giving full attention to whatever you are doing: eating, washing dishes, making your bed, etc. Meditation helps tremendously.
   Being Inspired — Practice seeing beautiful things that moves you emotionally. Flip through a book containing thought provoking images, go to an art gallery, read something inspirational, talk to someone who calms you.
   Drawing — Drawing forces you to see things differently. I highly recommend the book Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain and the workbook by Betty Edwards. This book was designed for people who has never drawn before.
   Seeing Alternatives — Be curious. Practice asking yourself how to do something differently. When seeing the solution to a problem, ask yourself, "What are some alternative ways to doing this?" Develop the mental attitude that "there is always another way" even when alternatives seem "impossible".
   Being Open — Never shut down any idea that comes your way, do not make judgments about it. Appreciate any idea that comes to you, even ones that seem "stupid" or "obvious". This way, you encourage more creative ideas to surface from your being.
   Think on Paper — With a bunch of loose paper, start jotting ideas down. Write everything down that comes to your head: random words, phrases, ideas, thoughts. . . Sometimes you might want to circle things and draw lines to connect ideas. When an inspiration hits, follow it.
