Five Ways to Find Inspiration with Dr. Tanya Beaubrun
How does a Physician find inspiration in her daily life?
A life that can often challenge my views on life and love.
Over the years, I’ve had to find creative ways to cope, ways of finding deeper meaning and a greater acceptance of what I’ve been called to do.
I now know, that I’m a Healer at heart and that there are many ways to administer healing. One of these being using my words to heal the World.
I’ve found that once I meet the basic guidelines discussed below, my life seems to flow better and my creativity improves. I am healthier, happier and feel more in tuned to the flow of Life. In short I am filled with Body Joy™
- Nourish my body with clean wholesome food and adequate water. I practice the 80/20 rule – Eating clean 80% of the time, focusing on a plant-based diet and using meat more as a garnish than as a major part of my meals. I enjoy my meals and allow small indulgences as part of my 20%. I’ve never passed up on an offering of cheesecake, but I enjoy a small portion, savoring each mouthful.
- Exercise is a non-negotiable. I try to exercise daily, varying my routine but always ensuring that my heart, muscles and core all get in on the action. Some of my best ideas have come to me during my exercise sessions. Nothing seems to bolster my creativity like a good sweat session.
- Nourish my mind with adequate sleep. Once I get to working on a project, I can sometimes go on and on and lose track of time. Time seems to fly by once I’m in the “zone”, and sleep can get put on the backburner. I’ve now learned that my body and my mind function much better with good restorative sleep. I practice good sleep hygiene by trying to get at least 6 hours every night and keeping my bedtime as consistent as I can. When I am well rested, it’s so much easier to get into a creative zone.
- Spend time in solitude and in nature. There is nothing like a sunset or walk along to beach to rev up my creative juices. There have been moments when I feel stuck or when there’s something weighing on my mind, and after a few hours alone in nature, breathing in fresh air, listening to the waves crash along the shore, new ideas and solutions come bubbling up. I never regret making time to connect with yourself and nature.
- Nourish my spirit by connecting deeply with God. I could not do this work without relying on my faith. Faith that I am being guided by a Higher Power and that everything is working out exactly as it’s supposed to. I make time each day to pray and ask God to help and guide me in this work He has chosen for me to do.
