Understanding and accessing creative flow states is a great way to enhance or complement your writing practice. In this session we’ll talk about flow state, what it is, finding your own unique flow state, what to do when you’re not flowing, as well as some strategies and exercises for easily accessing creative flow states. Bring a pen, paper, and a willingness to let go and let the flow take over!
