Creativity is something we try to dismiss as adults. That shouldn't be.
It is a sad fact we dismiss our imagination and creativity as we grow older.
Meditation helps you gain this creativity and imagination back, many writers, musicians and artists use meditation as a tool to help them think differently, sponataniously and create something beautiful.
After meditating, try drawing with some coloured pens on paper, it doesn't need to be a work of art, but you will find yourself being more inventive, and the process itself is destressing, your mind focused on something other than your worries.
By doing this, you will find more and more parts of your life spiced up by your creativity, adding a new element of happyness to your life.
