Restoring The Nervous System With Creativity

Is your nervous system overwhelmed? Chances are you’re familiar with some of the signs of a taxed nervous system - in fact, this may quickly be considered the “new normal”. So how do we counterbalance the effects of stressors in our lives using creativity? Jenny Hahn and Stephanie Gray dive into this topic and share their own stories of what it’s like to recalibrate their nervous systems with art making and more.
