Change is gonna come. Go with the flow.

Practice meditation. Eat well. Exercise. Go back to nature. Find a still place within. CHANGE IS GONNA COME—GO WITH THE FLOW. Using art to heal mental health issues is a good indicator of having a guiding philosophy, something that tells you that you are progressing in making changes in life that you want to make. Mental health should always be associated with having a guiding philosophy. Creativity is a good example. Creativity points to flow, a mindset that people immerse themselves in when they are engaged in a task. In artistic situations, we are able to freely do what we are doing, without distraction or self-judgement. Art is way of getting into flow, which is important because as we become more engaged in setting up an oil painting, doing a gesture drawing, making a collage, creating an affirmation card or making a sculpture, we understand how we create change in our lives. Flow is state of mind which helps us give up the negative thoughts, feelings and actions we typically associate with control/being controlling, getting stuck on ourselves, self-bullying, beating ourselves up, and self sabotage. Flow helps us evaluate our own thoughts, emotions and feelings as we experience them. Here, we can work on allow some breathing space for ourselves as a way to make change happen.
