The Power of Creativity in Healing and Self-Care

Special Edition Wisdom Column with Artist Briony

Dear Community,

As we wrap up June and head into July, this is your gentle reminder to realign with your intention. We're nearly halfway through the year—make sure you're nurturing your mental and emotional well-being as you work toward your goals for 2025. This is your time to welcome ease and joy into your life.

One powerful way to care for yourself is through self-expression. Whether it’s through art, open conversations with loved ones, or journaling, expressing your emotions is a vital part of self-care. That’s why we’re excited to share a special edition of our Wisdom Column featuring artist and mental health advocate Briony Douglas.

Briony is a multidisciplinary artist from Ontario, celebrated for her bold sculptures, evocative photography, and immersive installations. Her work invites curiosity, sparks meaningful dialogue, and challenges how we see ourselves and the world. You can explore her art here.

In today’s column, Briony shares how she uses creativity and self-expression as powerful tools for healing. Be sure to stay tuned until the end for a sneak peek of next week’s episode of Life Happens with Barb & Michelle.

With love,

PMPL
