Stop Scrolling. Start Creating. Reconnect with What Lights You Up EP 139

from Your Daily Dose of Hope · host Phyllis Nichols,, SoundAdvice Strategies

We were made to create. YOU were made to be creative! Not just consume. Not just scroll. Not just binge. But to make things—with our hands, our minds, our hearts. To write, build, paint, dance, speak, organize, problem-solve, imagine. To express the ideas that lives inside us. When we spend more time consuming than creating, things get out of balance. We feel it as restlessness. Boredom. Frustration. We get overwhelmed, anxious, even numb, not because we’re doing too much, but because we’re doing too little of what we’re wired for. Creation connects us to ourselves. It gives us purpose, agency, energy. It reminds us that we’re more than just an audience, we're participants. You don’t have to be an “artist” to be creative. One of the great things about creating is you don’t have to be good at it to gain the benefits. To truly understand the brain science behind creativity pick up the book Your Brain on Art. For now, just know that it’s not just good for your mood and your soul, it’s good for your brain and body too!
