This is the mantra I got in this week’s Dream Book journaling + alchemy kit: I am full of amazing ideas
Use the meditation on this page to dig in deeper to the mantra, or put your hands on your heart and take five deep slow breaths and repeat to yourself:
I am full of amazing ideas.
Notice where this lands in your body, what thoughts and feelings get sparked.
There is no right or wrong way to react. But your actual thoughts and feelings can tell you something about what you need right now.
This one makes me smile.
I really am full of amazing ideas.
And lately I have all these experiences of really deeply feeling how each step matters. Each step adds up. Each thing I do helps me learn and grow and take a better step next time. I trust this.
Building a "new life" after divorce feels like A LOT and yet... all I can do is keep taking little steps.
And it's so reassessing to think of how I AM full of amazing ideas, and that even if what I am doing now doesn't pan out like I hope - there is no shortage of other things to try.
It's easy for creative people to feel overwhelmed and bogged down by having too many ideas.
One thing that helps me feel good about so many amazing ideas is STRUCTURE. Like having places to store my ideas so they're not whirling around in my mind. The Project Page in Dream Book, and the prompts in the Dream Plan Kit for processing ideas. I start there, and then put everything into Notion, my project management app where I have slowly been getting everything organized/structured in a way that works for my brain, and is really making it easier for me to do the things I want to do.
If I AM FULL OF AMAZING IDEAS feels good and encouraging, hold it with you today. Maybe make a list of the amazing ideas you want to act on next.
If it brings up some discomfort - that’s your stuff to work on today.
