How creativity has improved my mental health

by Lauren Heim on October 21, 2020

I started dabbling in lettering nearly a decade ago. I had just graduated from college, got engaged and started my first full-time job all in the same week (phew!). I was knee-deep…

Now that winter is upon us and darkness has cloake Now that winter is upon us and darkness has cloaked the land 🌚, I am trying to soak up the sun every chance I get! ☀️ On dark days, I’ve got my “HappyLight Therapy Lamp” (and Bear) to cheer me up and help with seasonal depression. Have you ever tried a sunlight lamp? I linked the one I use in my profile, and it’s on sale! ☀️ #seasonaldepression #seasonalaffectivedisorder #findthegoodinwinter
My body has changed a lot over the last two years. My body has changed a lot over the last two years. In large part thanks to my chronic health condition, #endometriosis. Honorable mentions include pandemic and #anxiety. 😜 Recently it’s been a rollercoaster of events and emotions from receiving the official #endo diagnosis after 10 years of pain, to a surgery this year removing a large endometrial cyst. I am actively working with my medical team and doing my own work to feel better, and to be a healthier version of myself. But all that being said, I’m also working on practicing self-love. ❤️ Because this IS the body I live in, and that has carried me through 32 years. Part of my self-love journey this year was taking a family trip to Florida. I felt a little uncomfortable in my skin, self-conscious about my appearance and how it’s changed. Despite growing up next to our neighborhood pool and being quite the fish, I can’t remember the last time I went IN a pool. This trip I made the decision to be present and embrace the body I’m in. I was splashing in the pool for hours or walking on the shore looking for clamdiggers. Which let me tell you is so much more fun than sitting on the sidelines. 💦 This was in huge part thanks to @summersalt swimsuits and skirts, that I can’t recommend enough. Their quality and flattering pieces helped to amp up my confidence. So that I could focus on being the cool aunt (swipe to see!) instead of worrying about how I looked. ♥️ #selflove #selfcompassion #selfcompassionjourney #chronichealth #womenshealth #health #summersalt #selflovefirst #selflovetips

Small businesses still need YOU this year! ♥️ Small businesses still need YOU this year! ♥️ Before owning a small business, I had no idea that many often rely on the 4th quarter for much of their annual income. In talking with other small businesses, this holiday season feels a little more quiet than the hoopla of support last year. With everyone being mostly at home last holiday season, there was an overwhelming amount of support for small businesses from comments, tags, shares and orders that warmed our hearts and left us feeling so thankful. Truth is: we still need your support this year! Many small businesses are still experiencing the affects of the pandemic threatening to close our virtual or brick & mortar doors.🚪For most all of us small businesses who sell products, costs of materials also continue going up up up. ⬆️📈 Which forces us to raise our prices, and our margins slim even further. So how can you help? Swipe for *free* ways you can support your favorite small businesses this year, that can make a world of difference! Start by sharing these two graphics to encourage your friends to shop small in this holiday season! 🎄 You can help to support your favorite small businesses today with these simple, free ideas! ➕ Like their posts ♥️ ➕ Comment a kind word to make their day ☀️ ➕ Tag a friend 👭 ➕ Share their content and products 👋 ➕ Save their posts (hitting that little flag really helps with engagement!) 📥 ➕ & Shop small when you are able! 💙 #smallbusiness #shopsmall #shopsmallbusiness

I have been suuuuper down about winter coming back I have been suuuuper down about winter coming back again. 🥶 Every year I’m that person that acts surprised when daylight savings rears its stupid ugly head. 😬 If it were up to me I’d move to a warm climate, but alas I married someone who loves winter. So it was an expected surprise to have a perfect 75 degree weather weekend in western Kansas. ☀️ We celebrated Andrew’s sister’s baby shower, spent lots of time in the sun, and I made a little balloon arrangement and some pumpkin succulent arrangements! I love getting creative with my hands, it always improves my mood in any season. This winter I’m going to attempt knitting again and try to #findthegoodinwinter! What are your favorite winter hobbies? ❄️🥶👇 #seasonaldepression #seasonalaffectivedisorder #mentalhealth #anxiety #findthegoodinwinter
