What to do when you are in a creative slump and need a break


What do you do when you are not feeling super creative and need a break from work? You can get overwhelmed with work / life and feel like you need to take a total break.  I get this way every now again and really try to take time out for myself on a regular basis. Of course it doesn't always happen, but I try to make time for myself.

Here are some ideas to get you out of your slump:
  • Go to the gym or try a new exercise class
  • Listen to podcasts
  • Watch TED talks
  • Just walk around. I love discovering new places and sometimes just stroll around downtown.
  • Detox from social media
  • Pick up a newspaper or magazine
  • Read a book
  • Go to a museum
  • Go to the park
  • Go to the zoo
  • Check out a new restaurant, store, event, etc. in town
  • Go to a new spa and get a treatment
  • Get manis and/or pedis
  • Try accupunture
  • Get reflexology
  • Indulge in a massage
  • Color, I know this is trending right now, but it's therapeutic
  • Take an art class
  • Take a new class of some kind / learn a new skill
  • Go to a new networking group
  • Join an organization you've been wanting to try for years
  • Yoga / Thai Chi / Pilates
  • Pick up the phone and talk to a friend / family member / old colleague
What are some ways you like to get out of your creative slump or what do you do when you need a total break?
