Jeff is joined by Dr. Vasu Tolia, retired pediatrican in gastroenterology, who has developed a second career as a visual artist. Dr. Tolia shares how the digital environment impacts both the physical and mental health of young people which she has witnessed firsthand. Her journey has led her to create arts specifically designed to promote peace and balance in our increasingly screen-dominated world. Dr. Tolia creates abstract and semi-abstract paintings that serve as visual anchors for mindfulness and emotional regulation, skills that are crucial for young people navigating today's digital landscape. Come join us as we explore how art can serve as a powerful alternative to screentime, and the physiological and psychological benefits of creating and viewing art!
