What does it mean to be creative? How can a Creativity Coach help me with my life?
Creativity comes in many forms. It is natural for some and work in progress for others. Some people feel stuck, because they have not been creative to push themselves to their full potentials. Being creative can facilitate a better understanding of self as well as emotional intelligence of others. Below are various forms of creativity.
1. Thinking
Creative thinking involves critical and analytical thinking to dissect what is seen and uncover what is unseen. Life is a big bowl of variables - independent, dependent, confounding, extraneous. Some people can only see the obvious. Deeper level thinking is natural for a small percentage of individuals. Training the brain to see beyond the obvious takes time. An example between the two would be students. When asked questions, some students simply regurgitate what they have read or heard. Other students demonstrate their understanding of the concept by using real world applications to current scenarios. The latter is creativity of thinking.
2. Dance
Sometimes we allow sound frequencies to reverberate throughout our bodies, and we find ourselves moving. Dancing and movement can be considered forms of creativity. Autists and individuals with ADHD engage in stimming - repetitive movements, actions, sounds, behavior. Dancing could be similar to stimming. When one is frustrated, one may not want to scream. Rather, one may simply prefer to move voluntarily or involuntarily. Even if you feel as if you are merely flailing, it is still a creative outlet, and your “flailing” pattern is unique to you. It allows you to expend excess energy, thus, become more calm.
3. Sound and Music
Perhaps to calm yourself, you find yourself humming, tapping, making noises with objects, your appendages, your body, or singing. The sounds you make may be considered forms of music even if the sounds have no discernible rhythm or pattern. Expressing yourself in this matter may feel calming, so why not try it.
4. Words
This method of creativity may include short or long stories, poetry, lyrics, etc., and it may be written or spoken. To understand deeper meanings of incidents or events, it helps to speak of the event out loud to hear yourself process it and discern fact versus fantasy. Autists and those with ADHD may fixate on specific words or phrases and repeat them until they are bored or calm. One weekend, I repeatedly said “kumquat” similar to substituting the eff word for three days. There are times I may stim inappropriate words, and I may even have to say them loudly. Words are powerful. They can help or harm. If certain words are harmful, remove the power of those words, so those words no longer affect you. Become ambivalent to words. The b word has negative connotations; however, when you destigmatize the word to the point of indifference, it will no longer affect you. This graphic was found in Cricut Design Space.
5. Sculpting, Building, Designing
Sculpting, building, designing things can be calming, meditative and freeing. Do not worry about being perfect. The end result is to express yourself. If your clay elephant appears to be a lump, it does not matter. You have used your negative energy in a productive way to allow your feelings and creativity flow.
6. Sewing, Crocheting, Knitting, Embroidery, Fabric and Thread Work
Perhaps making your own clothes, quilts, scarves, or anything, involving fabric or threads are the way you express yourself and/or find calming.
7. Drawing, Painting, Photography
Visual arts have been expressive since before the hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt, or Chinese characters. Those symbols were methods of communication. One need not have formal training or skill to draw, paint, or photograph. Getting the images out of your head, employing any of those methods can help you convey what is difficult to describe. As the saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words,” use your unspoken words.
8. Crafting
Crafting may be expensive unless you know how to recycle materials. It is a great way to express yourself while creating gifts for yourself or others. These French Bulldog graphics were found on Cricut Design Space and cut with Cricut Joy.
9. Makeup
Some of us express how we feel by the way we apply our makeup at the time.
A Creativity Coach can help you identify which methods with which you are most comfortable expressing yourself. A great coach thinks out of the box to help you see that which is unseen. No matter which method of creativity you utilize, remember it is for you, and it does not have to be perfect. There is beauty in imperfection, and imperfections remind us we are human.
You only get one skin
Sometimes we neglect a crucial part of self care - moisturizing. Our skin lasts our entire lives, but we must treat it as the delicate tissue it is. The proper products can rehydrate your skin, seal in moisture, and form a barrier against allergens and contagions penetrating through your cells.
Angeline’s Addiction Oatmeal Coffee Exfoliating Bar in Shea Butter Base can help replenish lost moisture. People with severe eczema have said their skin started clearing after the first use. The aromatics are that of a coffee shop. Freshly ground beans and oatmeal flour moisturize, soothe, and heal skin.
No more dry, ashy patches. Love yourself and heal your skin.
Combatting Dehydration
Dehydration is not fun. It can cause dizziness, nausea, fever, headaches, constipation, and a multitude of other health concerns. Not to mention deprivation of your cells of what they need to regenerate. Avoid dehydration by drinking 7-16 ounces of water for every pound of sweat you lose during exercise, incorporating water and/or water based drinks throughout the day when not exercising, and being cognizant of when your body tells you it needs water - dry mouth, thirst, twitching, etc.

If you do become dehydrated, please remember it may take two to three days to fully recover. You will have lost electrolytes, so be mindful to increase intake of sources of electrolytes such a Pedialyte, sports drinks, coconut water, and some milks.
A fun way to maintain hydration is infused waters. A Vitamix AER Disc can infuse water in 45 seconds and still provide the full, rich flavor one would experience from leaving the water mix to marinate in the fridge for a week. Forty-five seconds versus seven days is instant gratification and satisfaction.
There are powder alternatives, which require adding water. By finding flavors and flavor combinations you enjoy, water becomes more palatable. Fruit juices, teas, and coffee count, but sodas and alcohol do not. However, be mindful of caffeine content with coffees and teas. For some with ADHD, caffeine may have a bad side effect. Additionally, caffeine is a diarrhetic, which may cause frequent urination and bowel movements.

Self Care Hydration
Hydration is essential to self care. While it does not recent we and balance one spiritually, it does so physiologically. Our bodies are comprised mainly of fluids, so it is natural we would crave fluids. Many people say they find do water bland, which deters them from drinking.
There are many ways to make water interesting, but first, I must share a tale. For thirty days straight, my eye twitched relentlessly. No one knew the cause. Finally I went to my optometrist for my routine exam. He asked how long my eye had been twitching, and if I had been experiencing stress of anxiety. Indeed I had both. He told me to drink Perrier, because the minerals alleviate anxiety. After drinking as much Perrier as possible, my twitch subsided, and people said I seemed more calm. When I explained it to my boss, he purchased a case of Perrier just for me.
Water can be made interesting by drinking it in mineral form, in coffee, in tea, in juices, and one can also add cucumber, oranges, lemons, basil, ginger, and other plants. Studies have shown, drinking one liter of water a day helps reverse wrinkles and other signs of aging. Our cells need water to regenerate. If looking younger is not enough to coax you into incorporating more water into your daily routine, then how about a friendly water challenge?
Let us start by drinking one cup of water daily either plain, fancy, or in coffee, tea, or juice. Add another few ounces daily until you reach one hundred ounces. Warning, if will promote frequent urination as your body is detoxifying itself.
Self care can be as simple as a cup of water, so why not show yourself you care?

When you are at your desk too long and do not leave for a break, you are more likely to be affected by depression. Try to take a walk outside even if it is just five minutes. You will be amazed what a difference it makes.

Ready to relieve pain?
While sitting, hamstrings are contracted, which pulls hips and gluteal muscles. This can cause posture imbalances. You may experience low back pain and tension.
Align your right knee above your ankle. The place your left ankle crossed onto your right knee. Keep your back flat. Bend at the waist towards your leg shin. You should feel a stretch in your gluteus and hamstrings. This will help loosen your low back and hips. It will also help alleviate pain. Perform this stretch several times throughout the day, especially if you have a sedentary lifestyle.
During work, I stretch 10-15 seconds on each side once an hour. At home, I stretch up to two minutes each side.

When we sit, our iliopsoas and iliotibial band contract and tighten. This can cause pulling at the hip joint and lead to anterior pelvic tilt. This type of imbalance, if not corrected, can contribute to propensity to fall.
Forward lunges increase core stabilization by activating: gluteus maximus, hamstrings, thigh adductors, quadriceps, and hip flexors. This exercise can be performed in small spaces such as in cubicles.
Stack right knee over right ankle and stretch the left leg backward. Lower the body. Your right knee should not go further than your right toes but may extend beyond the right knee. Left knee may be lowered to the floor, if you are advanced. Try as low as you can and be able to rise back to starting position. The left toes are flat on the ground into dorsiflexion.
You may alternate legs or do complete sets on each side. Please keep in mind that EMDR and trauma processing works better with bilateral stimulation, so alternating would be beneficial.
Once you have mastered proper form, the forward lunge may be intensified by adding weights. Stay tuned for more desk fitness tips.

Deskercise
Want to stay healthy and happy throughout the workday? Join us on an epic adventure with deskercise! If you surmised "deskercise" is exercise that can be performed at a desk, you are correct! We like to help keep people healthy and happy, so stay tuned for different deskercises and yoga asanas, which can be performed at desks during work hours and/or in small spaces.
How do you stay cool during warm weather? @_alowfit stays #QuestCool by keeping well hydrated. Drinking water regularly helps flush toxins and regenerate cells. #QuestSquad #OnAQuest #Questpartner (at Downtown Orlando) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQqnWCHD24A/?utm_medium=tumblr
Did you know adding cucumber to water helps flush toxins? Red apple, cinnamon, and ginger makes water taste like apple pie. You can infuse water with almost any water solvable fruit and vegetable.
Tip: use a Vitamix AER Disc container to infuse water in 45 seconds off rich and full flavors.
#QuestGold @QuestNutrition @LindseyHoran10 - @aptfitnessorg founder @_alowfit goes for the gold with weighted jump ropes. Great cardio, burns more calories quicker than most other forms of cardio. It’s a complete body exercise that engages almost all major muscle groups. #OnAQuest #QuestSquad #weightloss #fitnessmotivation #actuallyautistic https://www.instagram.com/p/CSElSqirK0W/?utm_medium=tumblr
Weighted jump ropes activate more major muscle groups than unweighted ropes. Jumping rope for ten minutes has been reported to burn as many calories as an hour of running. This makes jumping rope more efficient for short time periods and great for high intensity interval training.
Follow for more time saving ropes to stay healthy.
