I get awesome ideas in the shower. I don’t know why, but I have been thinking a lot about that lately.
It is just like going for a walk. We’ve been walking for most of our lives, so walking is a natural ability or a habit. Therefore, when we shower, it is a habit. We don’t need to think about what we do so our brain can go into a ‘thinking space’ or warp speed and crunch the thoughts we’ve been having.
I’ve always wondered how I come up with so many ideas while in the shower. Is it because of the relaxed state we are in? Does the warm water help reduce stress and anxiety, allowing our brains to enter a more creative and open mindset? Ever get a breakthrough moment?
We also have no external stimuli that interrupt our flow. It is like meditation, like a sanctuary for our mind, giving us an ideal environment for creative thinking and idea generation. Next time you find yourself struck with inspiration, get under those cascading water droplets, and embrace it – your best ideas might just be waiting to be discovered.
I listen to podcasts while in the shower, and I always get breakthrough ideas. It allows me to give my full attention to the dialogue and stimulate my brain. Our podcasts would make great company while you’re in the shower! Just don’t get us wet.
