Clench.
Release.
Clench.
Release.
Deep breath in.
Hold for five - four - three - two - one.
Exhale out.
You are safe.
You are here.
You can do this;
Allow the movement of these things.
You have space in this moment.
To allow your mind to release.
You may put pen to paper.
You may paint, draw and create.
You may share what you wish.
Whatever it is,
Be it may.
A note from Melanie Jane
This piece shares a glimpse into the way that I prepare for allowing the space to create. Creating is not always easy and, for me, it is important to allow the space for the mind and body to ease into the practice. I plan to come back to this piece when I feel stuck in my ability to arrive in the creative space. I hope that, should you feel inclined, you will too ✧
