Maybe we can't travel like we used to right now, but we can go on little mini-vacations that take us to imaginary viewpoints, little wise tidbits about creativity, and a bit of restoration. A Muse's Daydream is a podcast with short, whimsical stories designed to relax, nurture, and inspire creativity ... and restore sanity. The stories are filled with metaphors that subliminally catalyze creative passion and self-kindness in a world gone a little hog-wire. Please help spread a little mirth and kindness by sharing with friends or anyone you think might benefit from a short little escape. Latest episodes:
t was time for me to get out of the house for a hike - a haze that smelled like garlic was following me around at home. The hike was a little foggy, a lot like how the creative process is sometimes. . This episode includes owls, squirrels, and garbanzo beans.Here ya go.
I happened to grab seventeen moonbeams on my way back from Episode 13... A Swim on the Moon. I wasn't sure what to do with them, just like sometimes we're not sure what to do with a creative idea. Despite a nightmare about dishes running away with spoons, I did end up writing by the light of one of them a few secrets about the creative process. Sometimes ideas don't go anywhere... that's okay. It's a natural part of the process. More here.

Simple, Beautiful, Magical
I love listening to Jill. I love how she reveals the magical in the simple, in the small, in the seemingly ordinary things around us--and then takes them to a whole new level. I look forward to many more of these podcasts!

What a ride!
