What are your creative rituals?
When it comes to creativity, there are all sorts of rituals and routines that people swear by. Whether it’s taking a walk in nature, listening to music, or simply taking some time for yourself each day, creative rituals can help you tap into your creative side.
While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, creative rituals can be a great way to get into a creative mindset. And in celebration of World Creativity and Innovation Week, we asked our Creativity and Education contributors to share their rituals with you.
