It’s no secret that children are often more creative than adults. As grown-ups, we tend to become “stuck” in our ways. We stop exploring the world around us and start to take things for granted. Luckily, one of the best ways to heal and reward your inner child is by tapping into your creative side and being more playful! So let’s get started!
Know it’s okay to be imaginative.
Knowing that your childlike imagination is a part of who you are, and that it can help fuel your creativity, will allow for more playtime in your life. You’ll be able to tap into the part of your brain that needs less structure and more fluidity in order to create new things. This is important because if we don’t allow ourselves this freedom, then our imaginations begin shutting down as adults; therefore limiting our ability to come up with new ideas or solutions when trying something new in life.
Embrace your inner child.
If you’re feeling like your inner child needs some attention, give them a call. It’s okay to be playful, silly and spontaneous. These things make life more fun and help you stay connected with what’s important to you.
If it feels silly or childish, go ahead and do it anyway! You’ll find that being in touch with your inner child can bring out creative ideas that may have been hiding from you all along.
Have fun and play with your imagination.
- Use your imagination in everyday life.
- Imagine a new world.
Do something new.
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of learning something new. It can be daunting, but it’s also exciting and fun. Give yourself permission to explore something new in your life–whether it’s a hobby or skill, or even just a different way of thinking about things.
If you’ve always wanted to be able to play an instrument, now is the time! If you’ve always wanted to learn how to draw, or write poetry–do it! You never know where these skills may take you down the road when applied in another area of life.
You could also try out an adventure somewhere that interests you. You could join a travel group like Paradise + Vibe. Maybe visit an art gallery or museum; check out some historical landmarks nearby; or go see some live music at one of your favorite venues if there’s anything going on around town this weekend that piques your interest!
One of the best ways to heal and reward your inner child is by tapping into your creative side and being more playful!
Playing is an important part of childhood, but it also helps adults to stay healthy. Research shows that playing can help you feel happier and less stressed out, as well as improve your relationships with others. It’s no wonder why many people say they wish they could play more often!
Tapping into your inner child is easier than it sounds: all you have to do is try on an old game or activity from when you were young, like hide-and-seek or building forts out of blankets in the living room. If those things don’t sound appealing enough for whatever reason (maybe because they seem too childish), then try something else entirely! There are plenty of ways in which adults can tap into their playful side without feeling silly–just think about what kinds of activities bring joy into your life right now.
If you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, it might be time to reconnect with your inner child. By tapping into the playful side of yourself, you can heal past wounds and create a better future for yourself. You don’t have to do it all at once–just start by doing something new!
