Baking and cooking are creative acts. Whether you’re mixing ingredients by memory or following along a recipe, baking is a creative mind moving task. Similar to taking a walk or driving, your mind and body are working together, while also being able to think freely about something else. This could also be seen as a type of moving meditation.
Sometimes when I’m working on a project and feeling stuck, I’ll open up a cookbook and see what I can make with the ingredients I have at home. By doing this I’m allowing my creativity to continue to flow in a different direction. It has helped with writers block many times!
I would love to hear how it works out for you! Next time you’re feeling stuck or need a break from a project jump into the kitchen and bake something. Leave a comment about your experience down below or tag me in your picture on social media @NatalieNotions.
