  • Arts and Wellness Wednesdays - Art Talk, Nurture yourself!

    Welcome to the Episode 169 of the Podcast and the Arts and Wellness Wednesdays.

    With the Christmas season approaching you have to make sure that you spend some quality time on yourself and get your stuff together so that you can hit 2020 with all you have.  Take the time to start now rather than waiting until 1st January  and get yourself into gear by working on the things that matter to you.

    On Wednesdays we focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being. I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.

    • Creating in Faith - The Faith to Create - Compassionate


      Welcome to Episode 168 - Season 2, and today the word is Compassionate.  What does that word mean to you, how have you shown compassion to your own life and been a support to your own feelings rather than the opinions of others about the things they feel that you should be doing?  Listen to the podcast and let me know what you think.  Spend time in the art journal page and check out the video which will give you some extra insights.

      Creating In Faith Encouraging Recordings are to bless and inspire you to be the best of yourself. It can be really great to pull out your art journal/Journal and express what comes up for you either with images and colour, with words or with both. Check out the weekly and monthly videos to help you spend more time in your art journal.

      You can get additional information by showing up on my blog, you can see the show notes HERE    

      If you would like to see some behind the scenes, images and additional tips HERE

      You will find the  art journal videos available to consume at your leisure - the Making of the art journal for the month and an art journal page process - Check these out HERE

              • Creating in Faith - Change and Reflections - End of Season Episode - on the Road

                Welcome to the Episode 162. Today's word is Change and Reflection and is the last in this series of Creating in Faith.   I decided to change up the format of the Creating in Faith episodes to include more focus on working in your Art Journal and I will be creating weekly videos to give you some hints and tips for working in your art journal and spending the creative time on yourself, looking at ways in which you express and the positive impact that art and creativity has on your health and well-being.

                What to expect in Season 2 - 

                • Each month you will get a short video on making an art journal using the supplies and materials that you have around you - this pushes you to be resourceful, to use those supplies that you said were for special, and start using them on yourself.  It can also get you completing projects that you have around you (I have a few half finished art journals laying around), use recycled materials - there are so many creative ways in which you can incorporate recycled materials.  Available on my Patreon Blog  
                • Each month you have an overall word to ponder. 
                • Podcast Episode with a word for the week
                • Weekly art journal page play - you can incorporate the weekly word in your journal.  The emphasis is on thinking and caring about how you feel, identifying needs and possible systems that you need to put in place for your own journey.  There will be hints for working in your art journal.   Available on my Patreon Blog

                • There are so many FREE ways in which you can support the podcast and the work that I do on some of the other channels and it is always a blessing when you connect -

                    Welcome to episode 160 of the podcast, and Arts and Wellness Wednesdays on Thursday!

                    It is an impromptu episode today, you catch me in the kitchen making pancakes and dealing with Cole the dog who feels entitled :)

                    Today I discuss the Artists Studio Tours taking place next year 15/16 February and 14/15 March - there are over 30 artists from different disciplines and you will get to see their work spaces and studio - check out the website to see all the artists involved - www.artistsstudiotoursbarbados.com.  

                    Creating in Faith is going into its next season and there are some great art projects that I will have put in place.

                    With a focus on the Arts and how it can impact our health and well-being, I will be talking with artists, looking at activities that you can do to be more creative across the board and for those who are carers tips and strategies that you can use. I will also be sharing reviews, resources and other insights. I will be looking at the nuggets that the artists share and see how we can apply it in some way to our own lives, what ever your interests.
