🌿 Creative Play — The Softening Scan
Hello dear Tea House friends,
Today I’d like to offer a small piece of creative play — gentle, optional, and slow.
The Softening Scan
If you feel like it, set aside a few quiet minutes. You don’t need to finish anything. You can stop at any point.
Start by bringing your attention to your body.Begin at the top of your head and slowly move downward.
When you notice an area of holding or tension, pause there.Let it soften just a little — no fixing, no forcing.
Then write one image or phrase for what that softening feels like.
For example:
- Jaw unclenching → a door opening
- Belly releasing → a long sigh
- Feet grounding → roots drinking
You can keep moving through the body, collecting these small sensory translations —or stop after one or two.
There’s no need to make a poem. But sometimes, one appears.
The invitation is simple: write while sensing, letting images arise from the feeling itself, not from thinking about it afterward.
If you try it and feel like sharing, you’re welcome to post:
- one line
- one image
- or just a word
And if you don’t, that’s perfectly fine too.
Some creative play is meant only to be felt.
Cheering you on
