From the book titiled "Rebellion of the Heart" by Chris Saade...these words caught my attention; especially pertaining to this website: CREATE YOUR OWN JOY...which promotes each of ourselves to tap into and GIVE VOICE TO our soul spirit. Let us HONESTLY feel what resides within us and be able to express it in one of many creative modalities.
A 'What if' playdate!
The only "rule"...have fun!
Here is the Invitation: Set aside an hour...grab some mediums you've been reluctant to use because you didn't know "how to" use them and simply play! Experiment. Watch some YouTube videos and allow yourself to make a mess.
In this example I used a base layer of acrylic paint and overlaid it with India Ink, Alcohol Inks, Distress Crayons, Oil Crayons, and InkTense Pencils. I then sealed it with a top layer of Cold Wax.

Whether it be a contemplative practice, listening to uplifting music, 5 Minutes of Daily Silence, stream of conscious writing for 5 minutes or simply splattering paint onto your journal page..choose a daily practice and commit to it for at least a month before giving up / trying something different. Notice what comes us for you? Excuses made? How has it affected the rest of your day?
