i went to the farmers market yesterday and bought a bag of tea called creativitea solely because the name sounded like it would help me come out of my writers block.

Do you remember how I mentioned wanting to have tough love talks for creatives that helped them overcome both personal and professional problems? Well wait no more! I would like to announce my newest project...

“CreativiTEA: Tough Love to Touch Lives” ☕

WHAT IS CREATIVITEA?

CreativiTEA is a monthly, streamed get-together where artists of all forms are welcomed to highlight our work and combat a topic that inhibits us. 

The first half of the show shines the spotlight on works of art – be they paintings, crafts, writing excerpts, cooked dishes, or more – from members of the community. If you would like to submit a piece for consideration, feel free to DM it to me or place it in one our Discord’s submission channels. Whoever is showcased will receive a message from me, asking permission beforehand.

The second half dives deep on a poignant topic, decided at the beginning of that month. Every week on my Discord channel, we break down a separate aspect: personal experience, scientific research, and problem solving. The last week culminates in our communal stream.

Not part of our Discord? Message me for an invite code!

WHEN AND WHERE IS CREATIVITEA?

CreativiTEA streams will be held the last Saturday of every month on my Twitch channel. If you miss one? No worries: you can catch the podcast on Spotify and Apple Music, watch the VOD on my Twitch (for the two weeks thereafter), or find a recording on my Youtube channel.

The first CreativiTEA will be held on Saturday, July 24th at 12 PM EST. Our first topic? Why, it’s none other than “IMPOSTER SYNDROME” – and we’re about to feel a whole lot better about our identities.

WHO IS CREATIVITEA FOR?

It’s for creatives of every kind. It’s for painters. For writers. For chefs. For musicians. For seamstresses. For game developers. For streamers. For photographers. For craftsmen. For blacksmiths. For tattoo artists. For poets.

It’s for everyone. For the friends you have that could create masterpieces if they were unrestrained by doubt. For the relative whose potential you see, but whose problems you see all the more. For the strangers who need to be assured of their strengths and assuaged while they work out their weaknesses.

It’s for you. For the you that is, that needs a helping hand. For the you that could be, that you don’t believe will be yet. For the you that will be, once you sit with a big cup of tea in good company and help yourself be free.

WHY HAVE CREATIVITEA?

Because I believe that creatives need community – a community that can solve problems that have plagued us in isolation for millennia. After over a year of living alone, we know we cannot survive by ourselves. We need one another if we have any hope of shouldering these burdens and walking through hardships, hand-in-hand. 

But change doesn’t happen with just empty affirmations and soulless pep talks. Change comes when we address the real, deep-seated issues inside of us. It’s not pretty, but it is powerful. And at the Homestead, there’s no shame in the change.

I hope to welcome you home soon. If you could invite others by sharing this post through whatever venues possible, it would be much appreciated. I will see everyone Saturday, July 25th at 12 PM EST – I’ve got a seat saved just for you.

I’ve loved matcha for a very long time, but rarely prepared it for myself at home. It was more common for me to try working it into baked goods and desserts. But recently I switched out my 5am coffee for a 5am matcha. So I finally decided it was time for a real matcha whisk! Wonderful matcha, beautiful whisk, and whisk holder from @smithteamaker . This matcha smells heavenly and has none of the bitterness I’ve encountered with other brands. It’s simply emerald goodness, and makes those early mornings a touch magical. #tea #teatime #mytea #matcha #greentea #matchalover #peonies #teatimemagfeed @teatimemagazine #japanesetea #japanesematcha #insteagram #creativitea #thisistea #timefortea #matchatea #greenteapowder #tealover #teablogger https://www.instagram.com/p/CCI7NkzAEiY/?igshid=nz7int93beb

Stomach harkens. Yellow Nokia. Snake ever gorging. Ever growing. Avoiding tail. Twisting in knots. Body hot. Heat wave. Fever. Face flushed. Eyes pulsing. Just behind the lids. Inside my head. Head harkens. Swirling whirlpool. Home on google maps Is incorrect. Zooming out. Zooming over. Finding outlets And a tea towel tucked in an unmarked cupboard. Quiet dawn sparkling Passing neighbors talking New views and a headboard That has never known my dreams. Leaf expansion Soul expansion 80c Dark roast calling like a long forgotten haunt Or the one park where the sunsets were the best There was a hawk that lived there Liked to wait until the heat died down And the crowds dispersed And the bats replaced the swallows Only then Would she come out For her joy ride Flying for the thrill And the view And the night ————— 2021 Haiku Dark Japanese Roasted Oolong from Rishe.eu ( by way of @steepedapp ) ———— #japanesetea #teafromjapan #oolong #oolongtea #roastedoolong #shizuoka #gongfucha #gongfu #gongfutea #gongfuteaware #teawares #teawareaddict #teaware #teaporn #teapoetry #teaspiration #creativitea #teastagram #tea #tearitual #teasession #teaforone #teaceremony #japaneseteaceremony #justinotherteablog #teablogger #teajourney #teajournal #teajunkie #morningteatime (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgcQzRvOYve/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Saatnya Berkarya Lagi

Sepertinya cukup lama saya mengambil jeda.

Memiliki kepala yang selalu berisik dan suka melompat-lompat dari satu ide ke ide yang lain, saya geregetan parah menunggu kapan jeda ini berakhir.

Setiap waktu, ingin rasanya segera melompat lagi ke kursi panas. Ga sabar membuka layar dan mengisi kanvas. Rindu menyalakan alat perekam, lalu bicara apa saja sampai puas. Kangen meletakkan jari di atas tuts, lalu membiarkannya bergerak lincah, menari lepas.

Kini jeda itu saya sudahi.

Saatnya berkarya lagi.

How many times has any child heard their parent say: “Take a bath. It's good for you!” That’s not just Mum or Dad thinking they’re stinky and needing a refresh. Would you be surprised to hear that bath-taking goes beyond uplifting your mood, cleaning your body and keeping you warm? Let us know in the comments below if any of these benefits come as a surprise or are new to you! 1) Bathing can improve heart health – while a super-hot bath will add stress to your heart, a warm bath increases your heart rate for a healthy work out! 2) Helping you to breathe easier – immersed in water past your chest, the warmth and steam increases your breath, clearing your sinuses and chest. 3) Reduce inflammation – soaking in a bath calms your nervous system, reducing stress levels to gently relieve pain and discomfort. 4) Balance your hormones – submerging in warm water increases levels of serotonin, associated with happiness and wellbeing. With frosty shimmering pavement scattered with crunchy leaves it might be a perfect evening to draw a warm bath and take the winter chill off! @refreshteasoap we take a good tea soak seriously, offering two designer bath salt lattes infused with luxury teas, restful aromatherapy and botanicals captured in a reusable tea bag to help you rejuvenate after a long day and feel your best with ease!

Du, der fliehend Feuers Schatten heißt der, Rauch gleich, ihm in Schwaden folgt der schwindend Odem aus der Kehle reißt und Schwärze malt in funkelnd Augen Gold Man nennt dich Tod, doch ruft auch dich Erlösung oft zwar nimmst du Leid doch folgt ihm auch das Leben der eine fürchtet dich, auf dich der andre hofft doch muss sich jeder dir am Ende wohl ergeben
