Week 1

It’s been a full week on this island. Days are slow. I am starting the mornings with skincare, 20’ of meditation, making my coffee and sitting down to journal. A small break to scroll Twitter while rolling the microcurrent device on my face. Start writing until noon when it's warm enough to walk to the beach. It is only a 10’ walk, where I get to cross a field of chamomile before I see the waves. The scent is like a caress from the earth. Afternoons are for yoga and focused work.

I love having everything just a walk away from my house. Focusing on eating mainly vegetarian and plant-based, daily meals made at home won't cost me more than $15. I am carrying around giant bags of veggies and buying eggs in bags versus carton containers as I get them straight from the source. I have spotted a yoga and a pottery studio, which I will visit this week. 

Energy and matter are part of the same equation: E=mc2. Habits, wether good or bad. are patterns of behaviors that consume energy for maintenance. When you break habits, you release energy that is now free to be put into new life and creation.

Reason for coming here was to break old patterns, and with the energy unleashed to create new matter. Having changed my daily routine completely, I am noticing the difference in what I am producing - creativity thrives with new energy.

Does creativity flow better with constant change of scenery or is a calm mind the best canvas? That is to be explored
