WELCOME TO THE MORNING PAGES
Some of you send me messages about my Instagram morning stories after sharing my first photo of a day that mostly shows my sketch book, before I start writing my morning pages.
Morning pages are a powerful tool for unlocking your creativity and tapping into your inner artist, creator and higher self. By starting your day with a little bit of creative magic, you can infuse your life with more joy, imagination, and inspiration.
So why not try incorporating morning pages into your daily routine and see where your creativity takes you? The possibilities are endless.
Do you ever feel like your creativity is blocked or stagnant? Do you struggle to come up with new ideas or find inspiration? If so, you may want to consider adding morning pages to your daily routine.
This simple practice can not only help unlock your creativity and tap into your inner artist. This routine has much more to offer and there are a lot of benefits that come with it.
Read on to learn more about the power of morning pages and how they can transform your life.
So what exactly are morning pages?
In essence, morning pages are three pages of longhand writing that you do first thing in the morning, before you do anything else.
The idea is to write whatever comes to mind, without worrying about whether it’s good or bad, coherent or rambling. You simply write until you’ve filled three pages, and then you stop.
Wake up to inspiration
Many successful artists and creators swear by the power of morning inspiration. By starting your day with positive, creative energy, you set the tone for the rest of the day. Instead of waking up feeling groggy or stressed, you can wake up feeling excited and inspired to tackle your next project or pursue your passion.
So why not try starting each day with a little bit of creative magic instead of getting lost in your cellphone and browsing through social media?
Unleash your creativity
The beauty of creativity is that it can exist in all of us, whether we are artists, writers, musicians, content creators, or simply people looking to infuse our lives with a little more imagination.
However, it can be difficult to tap into that creativity when we are constantly bombarded by distractions and responsibilities.
Morning pages offer a chance to quiet the noise and focus on your thoughts and ideas, allowing your creativity to flow freely.
The magic of morning pages
The concept was popularized by Julia Cameron in her book “The Artist’s Way.” Morning pages are three pages of longhand writing done first thing in the morning, before you do anything else.
The writing can be about anything – your dreams, your worries, your goals, your ideas – and there is no pressure to make it perfect or coherent. The goal is simply to get your thoughts down on paper and clear your mind for the day ahead.
More benefits of morning pages
The benefits of morning pages are numerous, according to Cameron and many of her followers. One of the main benefits is that they help you to clear your mind of clutter and distractions. When you sit down to write your morning pages, you’re not trying to create a masterpiece or even to write something that makes sense.
You’re simply trying to get everything out of your head and onto the page.
This can be incredibly freeing, as it allows you to release worries, anxieties, and other mental clutter that might be weighing you down.
Another benefit of morning pages is that they help you to tap into your subconscious mind. When you write without worrying about what you’re saying, you’re more likely to access ideas and insights that you might not have been aware of otherwise. This can be particularly helpful for artists who are struggling with creative blocks or who feel like they’ve hit a wall in their work.
A daily practice for a vibrant life
Morning pages are a daily practice that can help you unlock your creativity, reduce stress, and improve your overall well-being. By committing to this simple practice each morning, you can cultivate a more vibrant, joyful life and tap into the magic that exists within you. So why not give it a try? Wake up a little earlier, grab a pen and paper, and watch as the world around you comes alive with possibility and wonder.
“Morning pages are like a mental clearing house. They help rid you of the things that are blocking your creativity, the things that are clogging your mind and preventing you from fully engaging in the creative process.” – Julia Cameron, author of “The Artist’s Way”

One of the key components of Cameron’s approach is the use of “morning pages,” a daily writing exercise that she believes can help artists unlock their creativity and overcome creative blocks.
