Reclaiming Creativity and Healing Through Art with Krishna Kayastha

Send me a text!

Reclaiming creativity and healing through art is essential because you’re innately creative, even if you’re someone who wouldn’t label yourself as “a creative.” Many of people learn to disconnect from their creativity as children because self-expression doesn’t feel safe, pressure to do art “right” surrounded it with perfectionism, and internalized productivity prioritizing. All of these have an impact on our mental health. This is why reclaiming space for creativity for creativity sake can be integral in a healing journey. Additionally, having space held for you can be healing for access to your authentic expression.

In this episode of Unlimited, I invited Krishna Kayastha (she/her) to join me in a conversation about reclaiming creativity and healing through art.

Some of what we talk about in this episode includes:

Lessons learned through motherhoodReleasing perfectionism and embracing playSupporting your mental health through journalingThe necessity of allowing yourself space
