Where Do You Set Your Creative Spirit Free?

creativeoasismantra2.jpgAs you read this I'm likely engaged in a serious game of jumping waves with my precious niece. Or perhaps I'm collecting shells with my sweet mom. Maybe I'm taking photos of my lovely daughter or about to doze off under the shade of an umbrella while listening to the sounds of the surf.Whatever I do at the beach this week, you can be sure that my creative spirit is happily soaking up inspiration and being re-energized by time spent in one of my favorite places with some of my favorite people.

Where do you spend time to set your creative spirit free? 

Trips to the beach or the mountains are a great way to recharge your creative batteries but since you can't be on permanent vacation luckily you have other options.

I'm happy to invite you to hang out with me in three places this summer that will help you practice creative self-care and spark your creative momentum. 

#1 ~ The SoulSpa Summit
