I pushed past my silly doodling worries last week.
And it’s kind of cool how it came about.
I had fallen in love with The Energy Cure, by William Bengston, and decided to give Bengston’s anyone-can-learn-it hands-on healing technique a try.
Step one, solely for distraction, was to compile, visually-represent and memorize a 20 item wishlist. (It’s tougher than I would have thought. That’s my wishlist, to the upper right)
Zentangling was in my top 20.
Studying that wish list several times a day gave me regular reminders that Zentangling was something I wanted to do. Then, presto-change-o, I was happily doodling.
All thanks to the magic of remembering what I want
and spending my time accordingly.
How awesome is that?
