Tools to Boost Your Creativity

Creativity (or creativeness) is a mental process involving the generation of new ideas or concepts, or new associations between existing ideas or concepts. From a scientific point of view, the products of creative thought (sometimes referred to as divergent thought) are usually considered to have both originality and appropriateness. An alternative, more everyday conception of creativity is that it is simply the act of making something new. Although intuitively a simple phenomenon, it is in fact quite complex.

It has been studied from the perspectives of behavioural psychology, social psychology, psychometrics, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, philosophy, history, economics, design research, business, and management, among others. The studies have covered everyday creativity, exceptional creativity and even artificial creativity. Unlike many phenomena in science, there is no single, authoritative perspective or definition of creativity. Unlike many phenomena in psychology, there is no standardized measurement technique.

Creativity has been attributed variously to divine intervention, cognitive processes, the social environment, personality traits, and chance ("accident", "serendipity"). It has been associated with genius, mental illness and humour. Some say it is a trait we are born with; others say it can be taught with the application of simple techniques.

Although popularly associated with art and literature, it is also an essential part of innovation and invention and is important in professions such as business, economics, architecture, industrial design, science and engineering. Despite, or perhaps because of, the ambiguity and multi-dimensional nature of creativity, entire industries have been spawned from the pursuit of creative ideas and the development of creativity techniques. This mysterious phenomenon, though undeniably important and constantly visible, seems to lie tantalizingly beyond the grasp of scientific investigation.

From Creativity on Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brain Expression is a specially designed brain entrainment audio CD for activiting the brain frequencies most associated with new ideas, and creativity. The CD uses brainwave entrainment to create a state of intense creative focus, or what some might call a creative "zone", where you not only have access to a greater range of ideas, but also have the focus and energy to put those ideas into action.

Research has shown that brainwave entrainment targeting specific frequencies can increase and enhance creativity. When the brainwave patterns are synchronized within those parameters, visualization becomes vivid, memories flow easier and one can approach ideas from fresh perspectives. This CD is designed to recreate these patterns while you work, eliciting creative focus. For the full story visit this link!
