🌸the moment you are completely immersed in the creative process
🌸the moment your focus and attention shifts
🌸the moment you start to create incredible change
🙌Creative flow heals on so many levels and these aren’t some regurgitation words. Creative Flow became -
🙏🏻my therapy
🙏🏻my pain relief
🙏🏻my life line
🙏🏻my passion
🙏🏻 my gift
🙏🏻 my source of joy
🌸I created KimCreates Creative Flow through my own lived experience, and wanted to share the creative process that helped me in my darkest hour. Everything I do, and share, is always through my own experiences and journey.
🖤When your mobility is suddenly taken from you it can take you to a very dark place - which it did , I never gave up although there was a moment in September of that year I nearly did. This was lockdown and I had been put on very strong opioids - I became addicted within 3 days and remenber phoning the doctors saying I wanted to jump off a bridge .
🙌Luckily I didn’t ..
🙏🏻Instead I came off all medication - myself - with no help - going cold turkey was an experience that still traumatises me. A strange thing happened though after 3/4 days of hell firstly I craved pineapple 🍍 🤣🤣🤣 for days after , then I picked up a small set of watercolours I had and had never opened, I had them for years .
🌱That day I started painting and it became my friend and gave me something each morning that excited me and brought me joy. As soon as I picked up that brush I got lost in the process of creating -
🌱I shifting my focus away from the pain to creating
🌱I was shifting my focus away from dark thoughts to creating ones of hope
🌱I was shifting my focus away from contraction to expansion.
🌱 I was seeing light after months of darkness.
Losing my ability to walk brought me to the most amazing place where I found joy, peace and calm within me through the creative process.
🙏🏻Within 8 weeks I has set up an online gallery and within 4 months I was sharing my experience with others through online creatuve flow workshops.
🙏🏻My favourite part of my experience and what I have now created to inspire others is seeing the impact it has on others in such a short space of time .
🙏🏻As soon as others pick up that brush to create
🖤The mental chatter quietens
🖤Their body softens
🖤They stop talking and shift their focus from thoughts to creating .
🙌My Creative Flow are not about becoming the next Picasso ( although of it happens amazing) , they are about inspiring and guiding others through the creatuve process .
🖤Creative Flow i’d hugely meditative and is perfect for the person who struggles with meditation - as the act of creating keeps the focus and helps loose the thoughts .
and it doesn’t have to be painting it could be cooking, building, gardening, singing, knitting etc … so there is no excuse not to at least give creativity a chance .
