I agree with Segmation’s feelings about the “amazing benefits of Art Class”. To add, I believe it’s also important in the cultivation of creativity, in general, to foster the imagination, help us stay connected to our inner child, let go of judgments and rules, to explore unlimited possibilities, cultivate playfulness, self-expression, give our feelings a voice, help move energy through us, empower our uniqueness, keep harmony within our Chakras, and the list goes on!

Thank you to Segmation for sharing this valuable post and reminding us to honor teachers on this day, May 5th – National Teacher’s Day.

I would also like to take a moment to honor two teachers in my own life that just so happen not only to share this day of May 5th, but were/and continue to be guiding forces in my own cultivation of creative self-expression and more.

Today would have been Gaia, my sweet Russian Tortoise’s 12th Earthly birthday and today was also the day seven years ago that I received Nestor’s ashes, my beautiful rabbit soul companion.

Here’s to boundless creativity and love, celebration of the creative arts, and honor for the teachers in our lives – art and beyond!
