Ready for a Mental Reboot? Sign Up for Our 5-Day Creativity Challenge.
What if we told you there was an antidote to burnout and brain fog? A secret code for a mental reboot?
There is, and it's called creativity.
Creativity isn't a rare gift reserved for artists. Everyone is creative in some way, whether or not they think so, and research has shown that creative pursuits can improve your well-being and sharpen your mind.
You can get better at it, too. Cultivating creativity is like warming up before you exercise, said Jonathan Schooler, a psychologist and director of the Center for Mindfulness and Human Potential at the University of California, Santa Barbara. As you practice creativity, your brain becomes more limber. You become more open-minded and curious. Your mood lifts.
Next week, we're going to help you stretch and strengthen your creative muscles. Each day, you'll spend a few minutes completing a stimulating and fun expert-backed exercise, with an explanation of the creativity principle behind it. By Friday, you should feel refreshed and inspired. We hope you'll join us!
