17. Turning Anxiety to Calm Through Art As Therapy For Moms

podcast
Written By Kayla Huszar

This week, as we continue to focus on anxiety and the mind-body connection, we have something special for you. Kayla (that's me) has created an expressive art therapy exercise that can help you explore your emotions and body signals.

I'll be sharing some tips on cultivating your mind-body connection through visualization, writing, and self-reflection, as well as managing the stress that comes with being a mother who is always "on."

We'll also discuss some strategies for regulating emotions and becoming more self-aware. So tune in and start feeling more chill.

WRITING PROMPTS:

  • Give your art piece a title.

  • Describe your process for making the art (where did you start, how did you know it was finished).

  • What is the essence of this art piece?

  • How does looking at this image make you feel?

  • If this art piece could talk, what would it say to you?

  • Six words that come to you when looking at it.

  • What will you take away from this process?

I believe that women are not given the tools to succeed in parenting. Constantly striving for an unattainable standard leaves mothers feeling inadequate and overwhelmed.

Through the use of creative arts, there is a beautiful moment of sacred stillness. A simple act of intentional creativity can remind a mother of who she is, what is truly important, and what she is capable of.

I aim to provide the best creative arts services both online and in person, because every mother deserves a simple and effective outlet for finding chill, being vibrant and feeling alive.
