Imagine yourself stepping into your creative space, feeling calm, open, refreshed, and ready. Imagine the light filling your studio or spilling onto your work table and the cool sensation of fresh flower stems in your hands Imagine feeling deeply centered paired with a spark of wonder that draws you forward down the unlit but fragrant path of the unknown. The path of the creative process that we discover anew each time we bring something beautiful into being.
You feel confident, self-assured, and completely okay with seeing what happens as you bring together the elements and layers of your design. You lose track of time. You are transfixed as though both participating in and just witnessing a colorful world of emotion emerge in front of you. This is what it feels like to be in your magic flow.
Now let's be a bit more brutally honest. How did it feel the last time you brought flowers into your space to arrange? What was on your mind? How did your body feel? How did your creative space feel? Did you feel like you had time to explore? Were you agitated and distracted or frozen at times with doubt about your ability, or finding yourself fussing over stems and smushing another flower in here or there in hopes that the shape and overall effect would somehow shift away from what felt to you like a clumpy mess and into some kind of transcendent living art that you had in your mind's eye.
I've experienced it all and over the years I have learned a lot of hard lessons and also honed a set of practices that actually helped me to minimize the chaos and agony so that I can step more easily and more often into my creative process with that shimmery, exciting and somehow also deeply calm experience of a flow state or a magic flow.
Recently, a fellow floral designer reached out to me and asked this question: "Do you have a kind of method when it comes to designing? I'm trying to figure out that ~ magic flow ~ to centerpieces still." I love this question. And as I pulled my thoughts together to answer her, I realized, I bet you could benefit from hearing this too. And now in this episode of the Called to Bloom podcast, I am sharing all of my tips, insights and steps for finding your magic flow in your design work too.
