"What if one of the keys to creative, novel thinking is creative, novel movement?" I love this!

I have just been thinking about that in a different context. In my case, I noticed when I was anxious or depressed, I would hold my body in a restricted way. It occurred to me to wonder if I could use moving my body in expansive, confident ways to help lift my mental state.

One thing I do to try to shift my mind into a more creative state is write backwards. Just a few words or sentence or two. I figured this out because I'm left-handed and can't write well on whiteboards, so I learned to write backwards on them so my hand doesn't smear the ink. I found this also seems to spark my brain.

Thanks for an insightful article!
