Let’s get crafty on Dear Empath with Gus Baxter! This week, I talk about crafting and how you can use these practices practices as tools for better mental health.

I am a master knitter and worked in the yarn industry for a few years. So, I am using knitting as my example craft. Know that everything I talk about applies to any craft that uses both hands, requires fine motor skills, and has a level of complexity to it.

Let’s get crafty!

Journaling is one of the most accessible, inexpensive, and customizable way to begin self-healing. Just the act of writing down your experiences and how you feel gives your mind space to sequence and learn from these events.

Think about it like a puzzle. Currently your thoughts are individual pieces. When you journal, your mind gets the chance to connect these pieces into one big picture.
