Episode 40: Grounding - Part 1

Artistic Accomplices

Keeping ourselves balanced as we create can be a difficult task, but thinking of a readily accessible framework can make it easier. In Episode 38, I talked about the four classical elements of art, fire, water, and air in relation to Avatar: The Last Airbender, and suggested that these four ideas can give us a we'll rounded idea of creativity and give us a way of keeping ourselves balanced.

In today’s episode, I dive into this topic a bit further, and discuss how the earth element and the notion of grounding can give us an entry way into better understanding and greater balance in our creativity. I dive into mindset and discuss not only fixed vs. growth mindset, but also scarcity vs. abundance mindset.

These are just some burgeoning thoughts that I have around this concept, and I’m working through them, and I hope they make sense. I’ll be diving more into these notions in future episodes.

I hope that you enjoy!
