What your creative practice reveals about your brain’s youth

We keep saying how „art is good for you” and how creative expression is fundamental to our well-being and mental health, yet we rarely are able to provide any science to back it up. Diving into the wonderful world of research, we mainly end up finding papers reporting improved well-being and empathy, but little actually investigating brain health – up till October of this year, where a group of 50 researchers coauthored a massive multi-method reanalysis of different datasets of previous studies, focusing on the relationship between brain health and art.

Orpheus singing: Overcoming Limits with Playful Exercises

On the 1st of September, under a clear blue sky at the dog park, a small group gathered for an Orpheus singing workshop. The beautiful weather mirrored the high spirits as participants immersed themselves in a journey of mindfulness and vocal exploration. We began with gentle exercises, warming our bodies and vocal cords, transitioning into the soothing practice of Orpheus singing. The air buzzed with energy as we calmed our minds using special sounds and gestures, learning to navigate stress and restless nights. As the session progressed, the atmosphere shifted from serene to dynamic. We engaged in playful exercises that awakened our diaphragms and voices, helping us break free from limiting beliefs. Each participant sang their name, leading the group in a joyful chorus that felt like a shared blessing. By the end, the group, though small, felt deeply connected and enriched. The event left everyone with a sense of pride, upliftment, and a newfound appreciation for mindfulness and playful expression.
