6 Ways to invite creative flow in 2025

As we step into 2025,  you may be a little worn out from the holiday season or need a little push to get started with your creative practice or goals for the year.  
​
Whether you’re an artist, a writer, or someone who just wants to explore creative hobbies, finding your flow can help you feel more inspired and productive. Here are six simple ways to invite creative flow this year:

1. Set a Creative Intention. Start your year by deciding what you want to achieve creatively. Maybe you want to finish a painting, start journaling every day, or explore a new craft. Having a clear goal can give you direction and keep you motivated.

Try this: Write your goal down and put it somewhere you’ll see it every day. Add a positive affirmation like, “I am open to new ideas and creative growth.”

2. Make Creativity a Ritual. Create a small routine to get yourself in the creative mood. It could be as simple as lighting a candle, playing your favorite music, or setting up your workspace just the way you like it. These little rituals can help your brain switch gears and get ready to create.

Try this: Find one thing that relaxes you and makes you feel inspired, and make it part of your creative time.

3. Join a Creative Community. It’s easier to stay motivated when you connect with other people who share your interests. Look for workshops, online groups, or local meetups where you can share ideas, get feedback, and find inspiration.

Try this: Check out social media or community boards for events or groups that match your creative interests.

4. Play and Experiment. Sometimes, the best ideas come when you’re just having fun. Let go of the need to make something “perfect” and try new materials, colors, or techniques. Playfulness can unlock your creativity and lead to surprising results.

Try this: Set aside one hour a week just for creative play. Don’t worry about the outcome; just enjoy the process.

5. Take Time to Rest. Rest is just as important as work when it comes to creativity. When you’re feeling stuck or uninspired, it might be a sign that you need a break. Get enough sleep, spend time in nature, or practice mindfulness to recharge your energy.

Try this: Schedule regular breaks in your day, even if it’s just a 10-minute walk or a quick nap.

6. Get an Accountability Partner or Coach:  Creativity Coaches are similar to life coaches, but focus more specifically on your creative work. They help you to develop your artistic and humanistic talents. Creativity Coaches have helped thousands of artists, writers, inventors, entrepreneurs and other creative souls to accomplish their dreams.
