As adults, many of us lose touch with the spontaneous creativity and uninhibited joy of our childhoods. In a recent session led by Krystal Mills, participants explored the fascinating world of Neurographica drawing, focusing on reconnecting with their childlike wonder and imagination.

This unique creative practice not only encourages artistic expression but also serves as a powerful tool for self-discovery and emotional healing. Let’s delve into why this approach is gaining attention and how it can transform your creative journey.

Why Reconnecting with Your Childhood Matters

We all have moments from our childhood that remind us of a time when art was about play and discovery, not judgment or comparison. Many of us struggle with perfectionism, which stifles creativity and self-expression—traits that came naturally to us as kids. By revisiting these early years, we can tap into an innate sense of creativity and self-assurance that we might have lost over time.

What You'll Learn from Krystal

Krystal's session at the Reignite Your Inner Child Retreat is designed to help adults remember and appreciate the artistic freedom of their youth. She guides participants to reflect on what they loved to draw as children and to create without fear of judgment. Key insights include embracing imperfection, allowing the process to unfold naturally, and seeing the beauty in your work—even if it’s slightly off-center. These lessons are about more than art; they're about unlocking your potential for joy and creativity.

A New Way to Think About Art

One of the most striking elements of this session is the practice of "rounding." This technique involves smoothing out the sharp edges in artwork, which metaphorically represents dissolving internal resistance and self-criticism. As you draw, you learn to invite self-compassion and to release the need for perfection, leading to personal growth and deeper self-acceptance.
