Sweet Souls,

I often hear folks say they want to "be more creative," but they don't know where to begin or they're too busy, especially when summer kicks in. 

If this is you, or you're simply looking for some fresh ways to sprinkle creative magic into your days, I've got a little gift for you today. 

In my FREE FLO community, we work with Monthly Community Commitments as a way to rally around small, consistent, daily acts of creativity.

This month, we're working with 31 Daily Photo Prompts that encourage slowing down, seeing through the eyes of an artist, and seeking beauty in the world around us. 

These commitments remind us that creative practices don't need to be fancy, time-consuming, or outcome-oriented, and doing them in a structured way makes them so much easier to do.

I'm pretty sure we could all use a solid reason to seek some beauty right now, so I'm inspired to share the prompts with you today. 

You'll find the 31 prompts at the bottom of this email. I wrote them as photo prompts, but feel free to use them for writing, drawing, or interpretive dance β€” whatever lights ya up :-) 

Happy beauty seeking...

With care,

flora

PS. I recommend taking screenshots of the prompts on your phone for easy access throughout the month.
