Let's start with silence. If you want to freewrite, get comfortable with silence, with saying nothing, waiting for nothing, expecting nothing. Only when you master the art of listening, are you able to freewrite, without trying to edit, coming back, or crossing out. Just let the words flow.
If you are familiar with voice typing via Google Docs, you can close your eyes. No need to hurry — relax, breathe, look inside yourself, because the most interesting things you are able to say are already there, waiting for you, smiling quietly, as your hidden treasure. You knew it was always there, how could you forget about that? Your treasure is your truth, and it's always with you, but you could be thousands of light years away from it.
No need to dig the internet, relentlessly searching for the most fresh information, the most entertaining stories, the most trending topics. Relax and enjoy — you can do it, you can just let the words flow. And if you can give life to this flow, you have power over words, you are the one who gives the words form.
The point in freewriting is to keep calm, find peace inside yourself, accept yourself, and believe there is value inside you. That’s why freewriting is a form of meditation.
And when you understand you don’t need anything to write, you don't need any outside information to create value, then you are free, and this is freewriting.
