Your Soul’s Favorite Self-Care

Ooh girl, yes! Let’s take a moment to give fine arts the standing ovation they deserve. We’re talking about music, dance, painting, theater, poetry—yes, ALL the things that make our souls do a little happy dance. The fine arts aren’t just for the elite or “super creative” folks. They’re for everybody, and trust me when I say, they are essential to a healthy, glowing life.
Here’s the thing: fine arts give us room to breathe. Whether you’re watching a ballet, belting out your favorite song in the shower (yes, that counts!), or getting lost in the strokes of a paintbrush, you are healing, releasing, and expressing parts of you that words alone just can’t reach. The arts improve mental health, boost confidence, and even help with problem-solving and communication. Basically, fine arts are the original self-care.
Now let’s talk about getting involved. You don’t need a fancy background or an MFA. Take a dance class at your local rec center, join a community choir, or grab a paint-and-sip ticket with your girls. Support your city’s local theater, visit art galleries, or attend open mic nights. Better yet—host your own creative night with friends! (You know I love a good theme and playlist!) If you're raising little ones, expose them early. Kids who experience the arts become adults who feel deeply and think creatively. And adults? We still need to play too, sis!
So, whether you’re picking up a paintbrush for the first time or stepping back into a creative hobby you let go, the arts are calling—and it’s time to answer with a “Yes and thank you!”
Let’s glow creatively, always.
