Our lives can become hectic and full of obligations that never seem to end. Whether it is running the kids to sports, grocery shopping, preparing dinners, paying the bills, completing yard work, doing the laundry, or just finishing the demands that were brought home from work, it can be hard to imagine taking a little time for yourself.

It doesn’t matter if you’re married, single, or in a relationship, we all need to make some “YOU” time! In fact, taking time for yourself has numerous advantages and benefits. Not only does taking time for yourself give your brain a chance to recharge from all the demands in your daily life, but it can enhance your concentration, relieve your anxiety, lower your stress, increase your productivity, generate relaxation, and also clear your head for a positive mindset.

For me, painting allows me to get distracted from the demands of everyday life. It is the “ME” time that I look forward to each day. Painting has become my creative outlet and passion that lets me convey my feelings and artistic expressions. Whether it is painting alone or with friends, painting is therapeutic. It allows me to relax and focus my mind on the painting while relieving the stress in my life.

There are also various advantages of why I also enjoy painting with others. It allows me to socialize and catch up with friends, laugh together, learn from one another, motivate each other, boost our creativity and self-confidence, and gain positive feedback from peers, while ultimately working toward our final masterpiece. So, why not join me and make some time for yourself. Let’s Paint!
