Creative awakeningThank you for joining me on this journey of creative exploration and self-discovery.This book was inspired by my voyage of self-exploration that started many years ago when life was presenting me with challenge after challenge, leaving me exhausted and feeling there was no way out. Then, one day, in a rare moment of quiet, I found myself doodling on a scrap of paper (as a child, I doodled to forget my worries). I felt a tremendous sense of calm, and I realised that I was 'in the moment'. I wasn't thinking about work, my to-do list, family commitments, or anything. From that moment on, I embraced the mindfulness that creativity brought me. I became a 'creatarian'!Creativity has always been a crucial part of who I am and led me to set up an interior design business and art studio. What I hadn't realised was how creativity could spiritually awaken me. Watching others in my studio experience the joy of painting and drawing inspired me to study art therapy and mindfulness. This learning experience confirmed in my mind that self-love, acceptance and trust in the greater good are fundamental to living a calmer life.I hope that Creative Calm will help you tap into your innate creativity, nurture self-love and help balance your chakras (energy centres). You don't need to be 'good at art', just remember that you are unique, valuable and worthy. Your potential is limitless!Creative joy to you.
