This week Tess & Sarah have Kiyary, mestiza Artist and Illustrator,  on the podcast with them. In this episode the three of them dive into how color and light can have substantial effects on our mental health and even our self-confidence. Interesting topics discussed during the episode were, art therapy, color theory and the use color to boost mental health, self-confidence and even SAD (seasonal affective disorder).

We have two Happy Edit Tools for this week: When you’re talking on the phone or something similar, have a notepad/paper and a pen with you. Let yourself doodle, scribble or draw whatever comes out during your conversation. After the conversation, take a look at what you’ve doodled, it can help you bring awareness to how you’re feeling in the moment, even if you might not notice it on the surface. 

Happiness isn't just being happy, it's an embodied feeling that starts with how we approach life, our actions and our mindset. Everyone has a range of emotions and that’s a good thing. Join The Happy Edit Sisters as they dive into what it means to be happy and how we can build a foundation for happiness through different lenses.

Don't forget to subscribe and share so we can start filling the world with a little more happiness!
