But I'm not Creative! Everyone can be creative and I'll show you how!

If you've ever said “But I'm not creative” — you're not alone. So many of us carry that belief, often from childhood, thinking that creativity only counts if it's perfect, polished, or Pinterest-worthy. I believe everyone has a creative gene, you just have to learn how to bring it out. I personally find that if I am not creating or haven't made something for a few days, I can feel my energy draining. Once I create, my mood changes, my energy increases and I feel like I have accomplished something. It has been proven that even just doing adult colouring in, or completing a jigsaw, both being creative, can help reduce cortisol (stress hormone), and boost your mood.

Let’s Start Small: Your Own Cozy Mug

This is a simple project you can do in under 10 minutes,

A mug with a quote sticker that you’ll see every morning — a little visual reminder to slow down, take some time out and breathe.

What You’ll Need:

• A mug you love

• Printable waterproof sticker paper

• Scissors

• Zicoh free printable sticker sheets

• Inkjet printer

How to Make It:

1. Print the downloadable. Open the downloadable Zicoh printable PDF document and load your sticker paper in to your inkjet printer and print the Zicoh sticker sheets.

2. Cut. Cut out your design. I have included black borders around some of the stickers to show you where to cut.

3. Stick it on your favorite mug. Place the sticker on your mug. Tip: you can use Modge Podge to cover the sticker to give it more protection.

4. To keep your mug in good condition, please hand wash.

   
   

   Why This Helps Every time you make a 'Time Out tea or a 'Calming cup of coffee, you’ll see your sticker and remember to pause. That little moment of presence — when you're not scrolling, not rushing, just being — is where calm lives. Take yourself to an adult Time Out chair, let your family know that when you are in your TO Chair, that you just need a few minutes to reset and rewind. If it works for children, why shouldn't it work for adults.
