How do you define creativity and why does it matter? Most of us probably think of the arts, music, or making something when we consider creativity. True creativity, however, may encompass much more, all the way from how we think to how we move. Any time we try something new or allow a shift in our perspective we are being creative. Creativity is a way to get out of our busy minds and be in a space with less demands. Feeling stressed and stuck? Be creative. Consider yoga as a new way of moving and connecting with your body. While exploring the poses we’re encouraged to ask ourselves what we’re feeling and where small shifts; freedom in our own shape of it, might be needed. Yoga gives us the opportunity to move in all directions, to find our edges, and to be guided from within. Do yoga, and build creativity! Susan Turner, www.YogaConnections.ca
