‘Creativity is the expression of your essence, the innate lifeforce’.


In this episode the ‘Less Stress Podcast’ co-founders together with an art psychotherapist and healer Freya Cecily Mann are exploring foundations of creativity, its flow as well as blockages and their origins. We also are looking at different conditionings, influencing art creation process from suffering/pain space vs integrated/embodied flow space. How our bodies can sense the truth about the origins of the art, bypassing only mental understanding. And highlighting the importance of embodying the authenticity through inner and social engagement during creativity process.


Freya Cecily Mann – a British artist (Foundation in Art and Design at Winchester School of Art), art psychotherapist (MA Art Psychotherapy at University of Hertfordshire), anthropologist/sociologist (MA in Anthropology and Sociology at University of Glasgow), medium and doula, currently based in Oslo, Norway. Freya has worked for over 23 years with people and organizations in places of break down, moving them into a place of strength and transformation. She offers immense intuitive skill and ability to reconnect systems that are in disrepair.
