creativity
we can shift from surviving to thriving by realigning our priorities
thriving means consciously making space for the things in your life that bring you fulfillment; giving yourself permission to do things simply because they’re enjoyable and rewarding
creative expression is vital for our well-being
when we engage with our creativity, we naturally detach from our rational, thinking minds. we tap into a deeper and more visceral part of ourselves that’s not bound by rules, logic, or expectation
prioritizing joy is a radical act of self-compassion
music, dance, and other forms of art are a means of processing our lives, expressing our thoughts and emotions, and releasing pent-up energy
they’re also really fun
