So, what exactly is Creative Nourishment and how does it relate to Art Healing? Well, let’s take a look at the definition of each.

Creative: Resulting from originality of thought, expression, etc.; Being imaginative

Nourishment: The action of nourishing someone or something; Food or other substances necessary for growth, health, and good condition.

Creative Nourishment is a lifestyle renewal process. When fine tuning ones’ lifestyle, we need to focus on our inner creativity and other nourishing things (sleep, what we eat, etc). With this in mind, we can move through our demanding lives with more ease. We need to connect more purposefully to the many aspects of creativity. Creativity is more than just being an artist. We can be creative in many ways. It can be cooking, music, art, movement or even just noticing the simple beauty in nature, all the things that light us up inside. These activities uplift and nourish like the best food can. True nourishment should occur from the inside out. In other words, if we feed our body, mind and soul with nourishing things, we will experience a more balanced life.
