Activities to stimulate creativity
Writers block can be a pain and it is sometimes really hard to move past it. I created a list of things besides writing which you can do to stimulate your creativity and hopefully cure your writers block.
1. Walking
I know it sounds obvious but getting out of the house and taking in some fresh air can be really good to keep yourself creative. You may also get some inspiration for a new story while your walking down the street. You may also consider noticing things around you to stimulate ideas for a story.
2. Art (Colour, paint or draw)
Doing some artwork is a great way to clear your mind and is also a very satisfying activity. What you've drawn doesn't have to be an amazing piece of work but even just doing something creative other than writing is a great way to get some new creative ideas.
3. Talking
Talking to someone who may be having the same creativity problems you are is a great way to stimulate your creativity. Bouncing ideas off each other and sharing thoughts could give you the inspiration you need to improve your writing and have some amazing ideas.
4. Cooking
I find cooking a really good way to stimulate creativity, not only are you creating something but also while you cook your mind can wander.
5. Yoga
Trying yoga, even if it's just once a week, is a really good way to relieve stress and stay relaxed. By clearing you mind and feeling calm you can think more rationally and come up with some great ideas for your writing.
