Join us for an enlightening episode of "Well, Hello Anxiety" featuring Jean Kropper, three time author and leader of purpose-driven art workshops for over 25 years here in Australia and around the world. Her workshops help make mindfulness accessible to a wide audience by supporting participants to put pen (or pencil) to paper and begin simply making marks. Jean leverages her own journey of healing from PTSD, caused by living with an alcoholic partner, to help people learn to express creativity, express uncomfortable emotions, quieten down raging thoughts, improve mental health and wellbeing and build a happier brain.
In this conversation Jean shares with Jodi what led her to leading meditative drawing workshops, how mark making and drawing help relieve and manage stress, debunks the myth that we're either born creative or we're not, the powerful therapeutic benefits of making art, how to get started and so much more.
