Day 6: Honouring Process Over Product

9 Days of Wild Creative Connection

Today, let’s celebrate the sacred act of showing up to our sketchbooks, regardless of what emerges on the page. It's in the doing - the looking, the marking, the being present - that the real magic happens.

🌿 Today's Reflection: Every mark in your sketchbook is evidence of presence, of time spent in communion with the wild world. These marks don't need to be perfect to be precious. They are records of moments when you chose to slow down, to really see, to connect.

Think of how a bird builds their nest - twig by twig, fiber by fiber. Each attempt at weaving materials together teaches them something new. Your sketching practice is similar - each line you draw, each shape you observe, builds your understanding and deepens your connection.

🖋️ Gentle Invitation: In today's practice:

• Begin without an end in mind

• Notice the feeling of your tool moving across the page

• Welcome "mistakes" (aka opportunities to see deeper!) as part of the journey

• Appreciate the process of discovery

• Let go of expectations about the final result

Remember: The true value of your practice lies not in what you create, but in how it changes you. Every mark you make is accumulative, you continue to learn, to unfurl, even when a session doesn’t turn out as hoped.
