Underestimating the power of creative play

Are you underestimating the power of your creative play? 🙊

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Often creative work is stunned as the 'easy' 'lazy' 'lucky' 'silly' route, so we prioritise busying ourselves with doing 'important' and 'worthy' and 'productive' things...like working in a bank or something. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

But was it not Einstein himself who said "creativity is intelligence having fun" ? Creativity has long been overlooked and pushed to the side. Left in the corner until we have time/have 'earned' it/are burnt out beyond belief/are on holiday/looking after children/etc etc⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

But research has found that being creative can increase positive emotions, decrease depressive symptoms, reduce anxiety and even improve immune system functioning! 🙊🙊 Vonnegut was onto something too with how creative play makes your heart sing and "soul grow". ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
