This article reminds me of Ann and Sandra.
Most people don’t pick up a coloring book, paintbrush, poetry collection or museum membership for the health benefits — but maybe it’s time to start.
Research shows that art experiences, whether as a maker or a beholder, transform our biology by rewiring our brains and triggering the release of neurochemicals, hormones and endorphins.

I have never been good at art, or music. I’ve tried.
God bless.
The point is, we don’t have to be good. The trick is to play without judgment.
…life would be bleak without art.
Or playing.
That is interesting!
🙂
Great advice
🙂
This is really interesting! And art can be found in so many mediums.
Yes, we get to choose. 🙂
I love this and did not know any of it. Sandra and Anne are both so artistically talented, but in different ways.
Yes, but we don’t have to have talent to do it. 🙂
so this means since I do doodling every day now, daily means I will live to be 1000… I am on my way to a new record breaking age. all joking aside, I can attest to the fact, playing with making art and making a song soothes my soul, which is what meditating does.
Yes!
This makes me happy to hear that my doodling is increasing my life expectancy. The nice thing about art is that there is no good or bad, it’s all a matter of opinion.
That’s the thing. Worrying about good or bad would spoil the experience.
