We live in a burnt out world.
Aside from it, we tend to deal with overwhelming emotions by being in a constant state of distraction. Everyday, our attention is being pulled in countless different directions. Thus, we go through the motions, following a predictable routine just to get us to the end of the day.
I can pinpoint several moments in my life where nothing but the hustle mattered, where I would feel frazzled everyday and where I would resort to mindless scrolling or entertainment to push all my feelings away.
However, one day in November 2021, things started to change – I picked up my camera for the first time in years and strolled around the neighbourhood.
I let myself be guided by exploration and curiosity.
And I felt better.
The feeling of burnout didn’t disappear of course, but given the state of creative flow I found myself in, I recognised a sense of inner calm and agency. Importantly, I experienced a sense of aliveness which had become dormant.
From that moment onwards, I began to dive deeper into the research in the creative health realm. That’s when I slowly started to realise that there’s a powerful solution to this state of cognitive disengagement a lot of us finds themselves in – one which modern society doesn’t focus on enough: mini-c creativity.
