Today's guest is Stacey Ballard, the author of The Fine Art of Waiting.
Stacey had chronic illness for the majority of her life, dealing with multiple illnesses and an organ transplant. Stacey uses art and creativity to help her deal with stress, loss, and changes that we experience, teaching people to bring more compassion to their experiences and themselves.
The most beautiful takeaway I have from our discussion, is how Stacey wants to demystify art, itself, and journaling, so that it is accessible for others, as expressing creativity helps calm your nervous system, and that helps calm chronic illness symptoms.
We cover so many wonderful topics, some include...
→ How Stacey came up with the idea for The Fine Art of Waiting
→ Demystifying Creativity... What fills your soul?
→ Some of Stacey’s favorite exercises from her book
Key messages:
1) We are allowed to feel every emotion that comes along.
2) Ways to journal without writing by hand! Don't turn away from journaling if you have physical limitations, there are lots of ways to journal and express creativity!
