Mindful art, healing art
Any task can be transformed into a mindfulness practice simply by focusing on the senses.
Through my art, I'm able to immerse myself in the creative process, calming my mind and entering a flow state.
The art featured in my office, my own and that of local artists, can be healing for the artist and the viewer.
Benefits of Mindfulness
Mindfulness cuts through distractions to allow one to be fully present in the moment. Mindfulness training increases awareness, or consciousness, allowing the space to choose one's responses to situations rather than responding based on established patterns. It can cultivate gratitude and aid in the exploration of the mind/body/soul connection, which may lead to personal insights.
