Episode description

What’s on your mind, unicorn? 🦄 Send me a text!

Mindfulness is hard. I mean, how many of us struggle to clear our minds without falling asleep or feeling a compulsive need to write a to-do list?

Angie Bailey knows this, and that’s why she’s so passionate about teaching her skill to others. 

As a burned-out nurse at her wit’s end, Angie needed something to focus her reeling mind. Fortunately, she found it. And now, Angie teaches the creative practice she discovered to help others gain mental peace.

It’s called Calming Calligraphy, and in just 10 minutes a day, Angie teaches you how to get the relaxation and self-care you need – with a pen and paper.

So if you need more self-care, focus and creativity in your life, or if self-judgment holds you back from trying the things you want to do, this is a great episode for you.

Because Angie believes that art can heal, and through a calligraphy practice, you can calm your mind, spark your creativity and create beautiful art in the process. To learn more from Angie, join us in The Creative Commute Facebook group at 11 a.m. CST on Wednesday, March 24.

Join Angie's Facebook group, Calming Calligraphy or follow her on Instagram @angiebaileyartandsoul.
