Want to improve your artwork? It might be time to look beyond your brushstrokes—and into your mind. In this episode, CJ Miller explores how the thoughts you carry into the studio directly affect your creative process, your confidence, and even the final piece.
Drawing inspiration from The Spiritual Artist, Eckhart Tolle, and contemplative wisdom from Father Richard Rohr, CJ shares practical tools to help you monitor your thoughts, practice presence, and awaken a deeper connection to your art.
You’ll learn:
- How being present in the studio improves flow
