It’s Mental Health Month here in Oz.
Wednesday was Mental Health Day.
Just as well, says Sally, as I was feeling super-stressed and I had the opportunity to attend Qi Gong class while watching the rain lollop down the window pane. That helped.
Art helps.
Writing helps.
Creative expression helps to alleviate stress big-time.
And small-time. That is, even if you have only a small rainy window pane to express your pain, or simply play with colour, it helps.
A collaborative three-way art-play from last school holidays
You might remember Aunty Art Café. It’s one of the occasions I’ve shared with you school holiday art-making experiences with my niece. Fun.

This school holiday, my niece, sister and I had one hour. Just a little bit of bloomin’ art-making time. (please excuse the My Fair Lady song reference. Do you know ‘With a Little Bit of Bloomin’ Luck’ from another era?)
One hour. What shall we do?
