Writing is sealed off to expand your thinking.
2024-10-24
Ideas grow out of stretching.
Maybe it's good to be in an environment where I can't look at my phone or computer for 80 minutes, let alone write anything that comes to mind.
Writing and reading and thinking is beneficial so that the thoughts don't go anywhere, but on the other hand, I feel like I'm tied to it.
It's like being sealed up, so that your thoughts are spread thin and wide, and you discover new connections.
It's floating around in pictures, so I'll draw it later.

The stretching here is one-on-one stretching at Dr. Stretch, which is more like a massage than individual stretching
However, a massage can be done while sleeping, but with one-on-one stretching, you are awake because you are working on your muscles and controlling your breathing, there may be a difference there. I've never found massage to be effective in getting ideas flowing.
It may be similar to getting ideas on walk, the difference between walking while reading and writing on a walking phone and walking without. However, during the actual walk, when an idea comes to mind, I stop and make a note of it, so the experimental conditions are different there
An environment where you come up with an idea, but you can't write it down, you can't focus 100% on thinking about the idea, but you don't use 100% of your brain for other tasks, and if anything, your brain is bored, but you can't sleep.
