Stream of consciousness writing really interests me. I have tried it before, but find it difficult to get past a tendency of mine to think too much about what I want to write instead of just allowing whatever comes up to surface. It's a control thing I think? Strangely though, I have no problem, when I paint, allowing myself to just paint without any concept in mind, and some pretty interesting things are revealed to me this way! Is there some technique on how to help with this? I do meditate and know how to breathe so as to relax...are there other suggestions you can give to achieve this Philemon?
