Mmmm... Health, rest, crashing and self-talk.
Things to make you go Mmmm…

"To encourage creativity by sharing more inspiration than any electronic artist.”
Three thoughts for your creativity and one on mine.
3 for you:
Healthy body, healthy mind.
“To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise, we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear.” - Buddha
Have you ever really rested?
“Give yourself the permission to rest fully, to shut down completely—even if just for a short while.
You’ll find that sometimes, the most productive thing you can do is absolutely nothing at all.” - Ozan Varol
Creativity is…
“…one of the few human endeavours where you can crash your airplane and walk away from it.” - David Bowie
1 from me
Tackle Your Negative Self-Talk.
“Negative self-talk is one of the biggest creativity killers. When we tell ourselves we’re “not good enough” or “not talented enough,” we shut down our potential before we even begin.
The key is to recognise these thoughts for what they are—just thoughts, not facts.
Try replacing those harsh criticisms with simple, positive truths. Remind yourself of past wins or say, “I’m learning, and that’s progress.”
Over time, you’ll reframe your inner dialogue and make space for creativity to thrive. Remember, self-belief is a skill. Practice it, and watch your creative confidence grow.”
Until next week
