It's been a few years... the world went crazy, life felt like it was swept away and many of us are left with PTS in the aftermath... Living nowadays can feel chaotic, bumpy and demanding right now which can cause so much unnecessary extra stress, panic and anxiety. This is how I use art journaling and writing to heal and soothe my soul. I'm sharing my true, authentic and very personal process in this video using photographs and storytelling. Journal along with me or just watch the process, which is soothing and calming in itself. We are also delving into the psychology behind journaling and why it's so therapeutic and I also use oracle cards to enrich the process too. Suffice to say, gratitude plays a huge part in this process too. I find the combination of things I do here really powerful and it works every time to support well being in my process of letting go of challenging emotions. It's also fast, easy and FUN! Thanks for keeping me company on this journey, biggest loves & softest hugs, Wendy.
