E1. Creative Expression Soothes the Depression

In this very first episode of the Creation for Liberation podcast (!), we get into:  The divinely-timed inception of the podcast  Reaching out for community support as a source of inspiration  Depression as it relates to swimming in the insane soup of oppressive social systems / separation as a cause for depression  Seasons of depression in Chetna’s life when creativity played an important role in connection and meaning-making  Eutimia’s wisdom on the causes of depression within colonization and according to indigenous and Chinese medicine  Grief and loss associated with Chetna’s immigration  Creativity defined as the flow of life force energy  The fine line between creative genius and “coocoo crazy”  The mason jar metaphor for creating space within our vessels through creative expression  The role of cultural ceremony and ritual for connection in Chetna’s upbringing   Eutimia’s perspective on the power of plaza, ceremony and movement in her upbringing  Creativity as a portal to medicinal connection  Questions for reflection:  What have you been separated or fragmented from that your spirit is longing to reconvene with? What ancestral ways, however accessible now, can you creatively tap into?  How is creativity flowing for you already?  Reach out:  Learn more about Eutimia Cruz Montaya and her offerings on Instagram and Patreon @musemedicina, and at www.musemedicina.com  Learn more about Chetna’s offerings on Instagram and Patreon @mosaiceye, and at www.mosaiceyeunfolding.com  Stay tuned with the podcast on Instagram @creationforliberation and at www.mosaiceyeunfolding.com/podcast  Want to share love?
