The Write Habit

The Writer’s Way: How to Prime Yourself for Flow

Dr Nicole Janz

The way of the writer is about receiving. About preparation. About being ready to slip into flow.

Procrastination isn’t just about willpower—it’s about how you set yourself up before you even sit down. The secret lies in how you prepare your body and mind for the writing session ahead.

If you’ve been:

  • Blocking time but never quite focusing
  • Filling your day with busywork to avoid the blank page
  • Sitting down to write only to get instantly distracted

…then this episode will shift things for you. I’ll share practical, surprising ways to prime both your environment and your inner state so writing feels natural instead of forced.
