Lockdown Day 508 - 16 August 2021
It doesn't have to be an expensive acquisition, it can be a colourful garden or a composition of those little things that make life worthwhile. It can be a skill to develop, be done in a day or keep us busy for a lifetime, just as long as we draw inspiration from it.
Apart from blood flow to the brain, being creative can bring about healing, because of it's wow factor. Not only does different art forms and creativity /skills transform a space, it brings about transformation of the mind and can literally save a life.
It can also reduce stress, and every "aha-moment" that is truly understood, induces a chain reaction through which the final product comes to life. This process helps with decision making and reduces stress regarding an unknown future (what's going to happen next).
When talking pandemic and lockdown, maybe we should really get creative. Less stress and hope for the future sounds like just the thing and what better way to get there than throught art and creativity.
If you don't feel inspired, go sit at the feet of the One who created you, who instilled into your spirit everything you need to live this life with. He has the answers and will show you the way. Because He gets you. And because He's got this.
