Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert: Creative Living Beyond Fear & With a Touch of Mysticism

In this episode I talk about one of my favourite books of all time: Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert. This text has shown me time and again (and still does!) that creativity is a co-creation with the universe. The mysticism of creative ideas and endeavours never ceases to amaze me, and Elizabeth’s words make the process all the more special.



I believe everyone is creative. Whether that is singing, painting, writing OR decorating your home, finding a new road to work etc. Everything in life is creativity. Therefore, you are already working with this universal energy. 


Elizabeth explains it like this: ideas are energy (or a disembodied life-form) and they decide to pay you a visit because they want to be made manifest by you. You have the choice to engage with the idea. If you decide to do so, it is now your (amazing) responsibility to do the idea justice. Create, whether you feel inspired or not. Create and the process will transform you. Have the courage to say yes - and see what magic will unfold. 
Opening ourselves up to creativity is the biggest rebellion & success in itself.
