In this episode, Black Girl in Om Founder Lauren Ash explores the belief of creativity as a spiritual practice with mystic and mixed media artist, Chetna Mehta, creator of @mosaiceye. Through the lens of wisdom she has gained from lived experience and studying psychology, Chetna explains how practicing self-compassion can not only expand our capacity to connect with others, but also opens the floodgates of our divine creativity. Chetna encourages us to connect to and lean on our spiritual support system as a way to cultivate a deeper relationship with ourselves and subsequently the world around us. She offers decolonizing our relationship to creativity as a soothing balm to comparison mind and creativity as a gift for our inner child. Chetna believes that “our capacity to feel the “darker”, more uncomfortable emotions informs our capacity to feel the other spectrum of emotions. They play into each other and there’s wisdom in both.” [invitation] IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL FIND OUT ABOUT:  The three major life events that brought Chetna’s to self-healing through art and creating @mosaiceye. The meaning of @mosaiceye &amp; how it relates to all of us. How Chetna stayed connected to her after moving from South Africa to California + discovered her purpose through art. The benefits of tapping into the deeper why of your creativity. The ancient Greek and Romans belief that creativity is a divine archetype that human beings need to exude and transcend our actuality Why we need our egos (sometimes). Chetna’s beautiful newsletter, The Moon Times: a nourishing, informational deep-dive into personal &amp; relatable topics such as healthy boundaries, body wisdom, leaning into your awkward, and reparenting your inner child. Three pillars of mindful self-compassion: acknowledging the moment that you’re in understanding that what we’re going through is a part of common humanity having self kindness; allowing what is happening to happen, and asking “what do i need right now?” Why Chetna loves crying. Decolonizing our creativity by reclaiming the belief that we are supported by a collective, Universal source.
