The Art of Creativity with Author Susie Pearl
Episode 101, Jan 14, 2022, 05:00 AM
How do we get creative again at the start of a new year?
What tools are there out there to fire those creative juices back up?
Are there specific creative chemicals present or that we can actively work on to get that magic back?
The good news is, that Yes! There are, and that yes we can work on them.
Noradrenaline is a chemical that is associated with being in our fight or flight mode and reducing stress creates more of this.
Dopamine plays an extremely important role in the creative process. It is the chemical that allows our brain to wonder and think-up new ideas.
Phenethylamine (PEA) is supposedly a chemical that coordinates all of the above brain chemistry. It is released when we are relaxing, having fun and feeling good about ourselves.... and lastly but by no means least?
Serotonin is also worth a mention as it evidently plays a vital role in controlling our mood, which also leads to more creative spurts!
Today's guest Susie Pearl is an author of a book called The Art of Creativity and talks to me not just about chemistry but how we can organically and quite easily and quickly turn our thoughts and mind towards becoming more creative. She has spoken to many fellow creatives on her very own podcast, Conversations with Susie Pearl and we got deep into subject of her book, so that maybe you can take a few leaves out of it to get back into creative mode in 2022.
