How Art Can Train Your Mind to Notice More Joy

from A Mindful Invitation · host Thi Doan Art

How often do we move through our days without really noticing what’s around us?In this episode, we explore how art can become a mindfulness practice, one that helps us slow down, pay attention, and reconnect with a sense of wonder in the everyday. This practice uses the viewing of artwork itself as the anchor for mindfulness.Through observing a botanical sunprint artwork created from from my garden, we’ll practice noticing subtle details, exploring “beginner’s mind,” and learning how presence can help train the mind to notice more beauty, awe, and joy in ordinary moments.✨ View the botanical sunprint art used for this guided mindfulness practice here:Sunprint Art✨ Download the free mindfulness + art exercise handout here✨ Looking for more moments of calm?Get mindfulness reminders, tips, and positive vibes every few weeks with A 5-Minute Reset newsletter👉 Sign up for the 5-Minute Reset here.💛 Discover more at www.ThiDoanArt.com 🌱 Looking for fresh, healthy meals designed by a nutritionist?
