I may recommend to cultivate boredom tolerance. Everytime you have a pause, no need to jump to catch something, like journal, or laptop or drink something or wash dishes. Enjoy stillness.

thank u! i kinda alluded to this when i referenced meditation. sometimes sitting in silence and being still is exactly what i need. then my matcha latte kicks in, and im like weeeee i wanna paint and draw and write and dance 🕺

The question, whether do you indeed want matcha this moment, or juts your mind cannot rest?

Stillness and movement are both part of creation. Sometimes, letting the body dance is how the soul rests. Not everything meaningful happens in silence…

i’m pretty self aware about when my mind needs rest vs when it’s energized and ready to create. both states have value to me. not sure why you’re assuming i can’t tell the difference between needing stillness and wanting to channel creative energy, but i can. been living in this body for a while now, so i’ve got a decent grasp on what it needs.

Well, latte and dance have little to do with creation, haven't they?
