Hello beautiful Souls. My message today is all about our hands.
We are so unaware of the enormous role our hands play is assisting us on a daily basis. The world has been so swamped with technology that We are using our hands to merely push buttons. Even the art of physically writing is becoming obsolete.
When we use our hands on a task that doesn't require or demand much cognitively, it gives our mind a chance to relax and rest from this kind of thought process. When we are using our hands it ignites a different mindset and an alternative kind of thinking. It's almost like your brain goes "off line."
When we engage in knitting, baking, painting or building a puzzle this becomes more thearapuetic and pleasurable. This is activating our creative brain and our hands become the search engines for your thoughts. There is something almost primal about this. We have been actively using our hands as part of our survival for so many years.
If you take part in activities using your hands you produce a result you can see, feel and touch. This evokes a feeling of comfort and gives you a end result of completion. People who suffer from depression will be well served to start doing something regularly with their hands to feed a creative brain in order to feel happier.
If you look at your past it is in your thoughts, in your head and if you look at your present it is in your hands. Allow your hands to guide you to what serves you best.
