Why Creative Play Matters
When was the last time you did something just for fun? As adults, we often reserve play for children, but creativity without pressure is one of the best ways to rest the mind. Whether it’s doodling, strumming a guitar, or colouring outside the lines, creative play helps you switch off from performance mode and slip into flow — that timeless state where stress melts away.
