Atypical & Awesome “Tap the Breaks”

Rest. The creative mind needs rest and restoration to adequately function. It is so hard for me, though. Those juices are always flowing and my brain stays in overdrive. But sometimes, like tonight I really try to limit myself or at least limit the amount of outside stressors into my “space”. Call it a mini-retreat if you will. I came back to my bedroom a little early for some solitude. I am constantly around people- and while I love them sometimes I need a self-imposed timeout. I will write tonight (I mean, I’m writing this blog for one thing), I might work on some song registrations, but for the most part I am recharging. Try it out for yourself- solitude; quiet; restoration. I bet you will find your mental clarity benefits greatly.
