March - The month of Ideas

1st March and March as month itself is largely considered to be the beginning of spring.  It is the time when animals come out of hibernation. The trees blossom. The flowers bloom. The birds chirp. There are many vibrant colours. 

The days get longer. There is more movement, more flow, more brightness, more vibrance, more colours. These changes are naturally inclined to spread more happiness and joyfulness. 

It is said that these changes impact and improve our cognitive thinking.  Thus March is celebrated as "International Month of Ideas".

So how do prepare yourself for enhancing and boosting your creative side?
