Watch me take 5 minutes to recenter after a stressful moment.
If you’re like me, sometimes you have too many thoughts at once. From housekeeping chores, to new projects you want to try; work tasks to building a work out routine— it can can hectic between these ears.
When all the lines of thought start to feel like they’re knotting together, sometimes I just need a minute (or 5) to straighten them out.
Thats where simple art exercises like this come in handy.
I split my page into different sections, and one by one, fill each section with its own pattern.
A simple task that I can feel accomplished after completing, accompanied by drawing patterns that will calm my system by repeating them.
Try this next time you’re feeling overwhelmed, and let me know how to like it. Better yet, try it right now and paste your creations in the comments! :)
This exercise takes inspiration from a Zentangle, a similar exercise that has a few more steps added to it. Definitely check out Zentangles if you wanna learn more!
