5 Simple Ways To Boost Your Creativity

Creativity isn’t a switch you flip—it’s more like a garden you tend to.

Your process needs care, structure, and space to breathe. 

Here are 5 simple ways to reconnect with your creativity—especially when you’re feeling stuck or uninspired.

1. Use a Creative Platform (like flowē)

Sometimes the block isn’t in your ideas—it’s in the clutter. Having a simple system to capture your thoughts and guide your process can be the difference between overwhelm and inspiration. That’s why platforms like flowē exist: to support your creative work in a way that works for you.

2. Follow Your Fun

This might sound simple—but it’s powerful and foundational to a fulfilling creative life. The fastest way to reignite your creativity is to follow what you find fun. Maybe it’s reading a new book, experimenting with a medium you’ve never touched, or taking an unplanned walk and trying to leave the notion of weather it's productive or not at the door. Dedicate some time to just let yourself play.

3. Consume Inspiring Content

Let yourself get lost in beautiful films, books, interviews, photography, music—whatever speaks to you.

But here’s the key: consume with curiosity, not comparison. Let others' brilliance remind you that you, too, have something to say.

Try curating an “inspiration board”—a digital or physical space where you collect anything that makes you feel inspired.

4. Collaborate with Others

Creativity doesn’t always happen in isolation. It often flourishes in conversation. collaboration can unlock doors you didn’t know were there and offer new perspectives you never would have thought of.

It could be co-working with a friend, joining a group, taking a course, there are so many options to bring people into your process. 

5. Take Breaks

This one’s easy to forget, but so important. You are not a machine. Sometimes the most productive thing is to let yourself rest. 

Setting time aside to have a break, to do something completely unrelated to your work can make a huge difference. And often times when the best ideas arise.
