Have you ever been swimming and lost your sense of up while underwater? It’s incredibly panic inducing. This feeling is something I experience in the creative process sometimes too. Nothing makes sense. You have no sense of how to make any choices within a piece of work. It all looks wrong.
If this ever happens to you, or you’re feeling particularly ungrounded in your creative practice today even, this episode will give you a practice for defining guidelines in your work before you enter the creative process. This practice has been incredibly useful for me, and I hope it does the same for you!
