"Creativity is what can really help our mental health in finding different solutions in thinking outside the box and really trying to find positivity and to see light where we just see darkness. So I think creativity is important in any field because it can push people to look at something from a different perspective which I think is valuable."
This insightful quote came from Alejandra Carles-Tolra as she noted how much of a positive impact using creativity has on mental health and in our daily activities. Alejandra is a visual artist and photography facilitator whose work has been been published by CNN, The Huffington Post, and the Wuhuan Art Museum.
