All successful artists create from a place of no mind, the subconscious. Whether they know it or not. The key to unlocking your powerful creativity is to lose your mind. 

Now, how exactly do I lose my mind?

Our answer? Meditation!

“I think I’d like to go back home
And take it easy
There’s a woman that
I’d like to get to know
Living there”

– Neil Young
