Being creative doesn't pertain to just hobbies, etc. You don't need to develop a hobby to be creative. Creativity is all around us and unleashing creativity in everyday life will be conducive to relaxation and lesser stress.
We often make the mistake of assuming we need major changes to let creativity flow. Let's find out how we can unleash creativity into our mundane, everyday lives.
