Creativity Transmutes Hurt Into Love
After a recent argument, I woke up with a deep ache in my chest—an emotional pain that felt stronger than the chronic pain I’ve been carrying in my hips. It reminded me how the body holds emotion, how tension can live in us for years if we don’t give it space to move.
That morning, I turned to painting. I played the saddest song I could find and let the emotion pour through my brush. Painting became my way to release. When we create from that raw place, creativity becomes a healing modality. It transmutes hurt and anger into love.
Too often, we try to hold emotion in, to control it. But art asks us to let go—to breathe, to move, to allow what’s inside to flow through color, line, and movement. Breath is part of that flow—it carries energy through the body and helps emotion transform.
If you’re feeling anxious, heartbroken, or angry, don’t resist it. Go into your studio. Pick up a brush. Use your art to reconnect with the higher power within you. Creativity can bring you back to love—back to peace.
