Creativity!
Creative endeavors are a great way to renew, refresh, and revitalize. They provide us with a change from the daily routine, a chance for self expression, and an outlet for creative energies. Further, when we express our creativity, it gives us a better defined sense of self, and thus improves self esteem. Besides all that, it's fun to be creative! There are so many activities to choose from: sewing, cooking, creative writing (journaling, poetry), drawing, painting, decorating, embroidery, just to name those that immediately spring to mind.
Because creativity is so much fun, and so good for us, we offer two activities here, a recipe for and the instructions for making gel candles. Gel candles are fun to make to enjoy for yourself, or to give as gifts. Try out these activities, and let us know what you think!
