Creativity Improves Negative Moods
The anguished artist may be a popular stereotype, but as it turns out, exploring negative feelings through creative work can actually transform a sullen attitude into a bright one, according to Dr. Shelly Carson in an article at PsychCentral.com.
The creative process provides a form of “auto-therapy,” which tends to improve moods.
What type of activities would engage your creativity therapeutically?
• Writing. Keep a “feelings journal,” where you can express yourself freely.
• Play or listen to music.
• Draw your emotions.

I wish I had a creative outlet, where I could improve my mood.

I believe it. I also think it helps reduce stress. When I am feeling down and a little stressed, I grab my journal. The pages are designed so I can either write or draw. A little doodling, no matter how bad, and writing a few words can lift my mood pretty quickly.
