Cool To Be Kind

An active and vivid imagination often encourage creative people to achieve great things, but it can also get up pessimism scenarios that isolate and bring on feelings of self-doubt. Perhaps it's time creatives showed themselves more self-kindness.

· The imagination in life

Has it ever occurred to you how closely linked many of life's interesting moments are to those of your imagination? Without imagining things first, they cannot be brought to life. Creativity does not simply express itself in artistry. It shows itself in how you lead your life and in your inclination to self-style and challenge your own actions.




· The creative brain

Human beings are endowed with imagination, but the right-hand side of the brain is more strongly developed in creative people. This is the part of the brain that thinks in metaphor and pattern. It is visual, pre-verbal and non-linear and tends to jump in an associative, rather than logical way.




· Become comfortable with your feelings

The right-hand side of the brain is also more closely connected with the limbic system, the part that generates feelings and looks after us in fight or escape scenarios. This explains why some creative people feel so intensely. They have easier access as it were, to the whole range of feelings available and can be moved as easily by external events - stories, news, other people's suffering - as those in their own lives.




· Self-compassion: a way out

Art-mindset methodology offers a way out of the isolation that creatives impose upon themselves. It's also a simple tool to enrich wellbeing by staying closely with your core self. The invitation is to connect with the physical sensations of discomfort and attend to them kindly and with interest. By simply acknowledging your own limits and turning towards it in a kindly way, help bring you back in touch with yourself. Kindness from another, or kindness from oneself, is measured as "safety".




· Inner kindness

The affliction you unconsciously impose on yourself daily reduces the capacity to grow and it stops you reaching out your goals. Art-mindset methodology helps break the habit of your inner critic, and helps you to engage with your inner coach who has the courage to turn kindly your hurting and accept it as part of human condition.



Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible._
