You are NOT your emotions (this is a hard one!)

Short for time? Here's this week's new therapeutic art video!


YOU ARE NOT YOUR EMOTIONS.

Hey , I don't know about you, but I've definitely struggled with this concept, particularly when it comes to grief.


That's because when grief is all you've known for a while, it can be hard to see yourself apart from your feelings, or even apart from the person who died. 


That's totally normal, in my opinion at least. But it doesn't have to stay that way.


This collage art exercise helps you distinguish between thoughts/feelings of grief and your identity. Figuring out who you are apart from what you're going through is key to moving forward. It can be messy, but it's totally worth it!

*PS: Some of my video projects (including this week's) utilize printable templates - harkening back to the days when these videos were a paid course. I finally figured out how to get these templates to you for FREE. This is a Dropbox link that will allow you to access all the templates you need. I'll add to the folder every time there's a new project with a template. Hope that makes it easier for you!
