Recharge with a Creative Retreat

Summer is just about over. Yes that was probably the worst way ever to start off a blog post, but please don’t go anywhere. The good news for you though is that if you have kids, then that means that they are going to be back in school which hopefully gives you some time to yourself.

You have been busy all summer keeping them occupied and entertained. Now it is your turn to have some alone time. If you have been feeling like you are in a rut, then I have the perfect solution for you. Here is the golden answer…

You need to schedule your own creative retreat. Creative retreat…you’re thinking what in the world is this. It’s like taking “Me time” to another level. Schedule time for yourself to get away and enjoy what makes you happy and gets your creativity flowing. You will be amazed at how much you will actually get done. You will even feel refreshed afterwards which helps you to get even more done later.

This is only scraping the top of this whole concept which is why I am so glad I came across The Creative Retreat Workbook by Jennie Moraitis. She gives you a simple guide for planning your own personal retreat to help you recharge, reassess, and create.

Sometimes we are too afraid to just dive in to our creativity because we think we will mess things up. In her book, Jennie encourages us to give ourselves permission to mess up and just enjoy ourselves. I can be a bit OCD at times which can also hinder me from really enjoying things and learning something new.

Now I have the tools to get my own retreat started and make progress on so many projects I have wanted to do. You can do the same by checking out her book HERE with more information and even sneak peeks of what is included.

Yesterday was actually the last day of my official summer before school started again. I am a school nurse as well and had to go back for pre-planning today. I wanted to spend my last day doing something for myself to just relax. Adult coloring pages have been very popular lately. I always had a love for coloring as a child and love the fact that I have an excuse to color again. I scheduled my own creative retreat yesterday morning and enjoyed getting my own creative juices flowing again.

Now what are you waiting for? Hop on over and get your copy today too. You and your creativity will definitely not regret it.

Enjoy the little things in life like coloring again.
