Playing is Practice

Playing is Practice | You are a Work of Art Podcast | Monique Cara

This week on the You Are a Work of Art Podcast: Playing is Practice

“Play is a profound biological process. It has evolved over eons in many animal species to promote survival. It shapes the brain and makes animals smarter and more adaptable. In higher animals, it fosters empathy and makes possible, complex social groups. For us, play lies at the core of creativity and innovation.” - Stuart Brown, Play

You and I sit down today and discuss, the power of play, the benefits of it, and how it doubles as practice for you to dive deeper into your creative medium.

I am with you on this journey. I am learning, just like you, every day.
