"How Do You Overcome Creative Blocks?"

Sep '24 • General

Hey everyone! I wanted to start a conversation around creative blocks. We’ve all been there—sitting in front of our DAW, knowing we want to create but feeling stuck. I’ve found that one of the most powerful tools for me in these moments has been kundalini yoga. I've found it gets me out of my head and into my body and the more I practice consistently the more I find myself having access to flow states.

For those unfamiliar, Kundalini yoga is a practice focused on awakening energy and aligning mind, body, and spirit. For me, it works like ‘tuning’ my instrument—not just my body but my creative self. It clears the mental fog, opens me up to flow, and connects me to deeper creative inspiration.

There's a ton of resources and simple kriyas and flows you can jump right in with on youtube. If you're looking for a deep dive I suggest checking out the homie Jai Dev at Life Force Academy https://teachings.jaidevsingh.com/. I love their 40 day challenges and power practices.

I'm curious—what do you all do when you hit that creative wall? Have any of you tried yoga or other practices to help realign and break through? I’d love to hear your experiences or suggestions. Let’s share some tips and help each other stay in that creative flow!
