Your Monthly Creative Exercise

April:

Free-writing away feelings

By Kim Dixon

Think of three words.

These words could describe the day you’d like to have, the day you’ve

already had or how you’re currently feeling.

Try not to spend a lot of time thinking of your

three words.


Write them down so you don’t forget them. Set a timer, for example 5 minutes.


Write as much as you can in that time. It can be about whatever you want,

it doesn’t have to make sense or have the correct spelling, grammar or punctuation, as long as your three chosen words are mentioned somewhere.

Simply free yourself and let out any thoughts that come to mind.


The purpose of free-writing is to release any initial thoughts from your mind. It can increase creativity and inspiration or free up a busy mind.

Some authors and poets find it helpful to do this exercise

when experiencing writer’s-block. Some even do it at the start of the day as soon as they wake up or at the end before going

to sleep.

About our Monthly Creative Prompts

These creative exercises were thoughtfully designed by our very own Art4Space staff and are practiced daily at our Community Arts Centre. Our tutors want to share them with you to encourage creative holistic wellness for everyone. 

Our exercises are designed to be simple and can be done anywhere whether you’re at home, at your place of work, in the park, on a train etc. 

You’ll only need some basic art materials, and you could keep a sketchbook or notebook specifically for your creative exercises to help keep them together and easily accessible. 



We hope that these exercises will encourage self-expression and help stimulate your creative mind. So, sit back, relax, don’t overthink it and let your creative responses take you away…
