I'm doing the 30 day pack for creativity. Andy (the announcer) asks you to imagine your creative spark to be a small globe of light which radiates from within you, and then emit light out as far away as you can imagine. After a few days you're asked to make a doodle or sentence of whatever pops into your mind first.
It has yielded some strangeness. I would go as far to say that I don't feel any more creative, except that Halloween is coming-so this could be a situation of correlation v. causation.
Whatever, I love pinterest and making things out of my own garbage can, but wouldn't exactly call that meditation...
I'm looking forward to the next challenge pack for 15 minutes of complete silence. When I hear a lot of chatter during the guided meditation it kicks up my mental chatter, too.
Now, maybe you think, "Why don't you just sit in silence for 15 minutes?" To that I say, "You have a definite point, but some of this exercise is about self-awareness, accountability in a new practice and trying something with as much of an open mind as I can muster."
Life overall has been great!
