What I love most about being a productivity strategist is finding unique ways to achieve our goals that fit with who we are and how we work. Today’s guest helps us do just that as we explore how we can use art as a form of meditative practice. This week, episode 184 of the Positively Living Podcast is about how to meditate easily through creative expression!

Jennifer Faye Colombo is an artist, creative guide, and designer of card decks and journals. She believes we are all creative and have the ability to use art to gain insights, for self-care, to tap into the creative flow and more no matter one's level of experience. In addition to empowering others to tap into their creativity, Jen helps coaches, energy healers and other entrepreneurs to create products to support their client's journeys outside of sessions.

In this episode of the Positively Living Podcast, Jennifer Faye Colombo reminds us that we are all creative beings–no matter how we choose to express it–and she gives actionable steps you can take right now to use creative expression as a supplement or a replacement to common meditation practices. 

Jennifer and I cover the following topics:

• Letting go of any perfectionism and leaning into the flow you might feel. 
• Simple and specific steps for a fast practice (i.e., 3-5 minutes of your day). 
• Prompts to use when reflecting on your practice. 
• The best times and circumstances to bring this practice out of your toolbox.
