What if the key to calming your mind isn't in silencing your mind
— but in living creatively?
We’ve all been there: stuck in a spiral of anxious thoughts, trying to overanalyze our way out of it. But what if there’s a better way?
Creativity isn’t just for artists—it’s for everyone. Whether you’re planning a trip, rearranging your living room, or crafting the perfect email, you’re already being creative. And the best part? Engaging with creativity naturally quiets anxious thinking.
This book is for you if...
✔ You overthink everything—and want to stop.
✔ You’ve tried mindfulness, productivity hacks, or self-help advice, but nothing quite sticks.
✔ You don’t consider yourself “creative” (spoiler: you are).
✔ You already know you’re creative and want to bring that flow into other parts of your life.
✔ You want a fresh, playful, and practical approach to feeling more present and less stressed.
With humor, science-backed insights, and real-life stories, Freak Out Like an Artist helps you shift from anxious thinking into a state of creative flow—where your thoughts stop spinning, and your ideas start moving.
