Mindful Sparks for Creative Writing
Week 3: Objects That Speak. Mindfulness can slow us down enough to notice the stories hiding in objects. Look around you now, pick something ordinary, like a shoe, a cup or a piece of clothing. What has it seen? Where has it been? The creative mind sings to us when we let things talk.

Week 2: The Colour Collector. For this lesson, I’d like you to pick a colour, it can be any colour you wish. Let’s say it’s blue. For the whole day, notice every shade of blue that you can. The sky, jeans, shorts, ink, someone’s eyes. This is mindfulness in action, looking closer at everything than you usually do, and the more you notice, the more material you’ll feed your imagination.
