DAILY ACTS OF CREATIVITY

A book about discovering your everyday spark for living a happy, healthy and creative life

Daily Acts of Creativity is a deep dive into living a healthier, more connected, authentic life through intentional creativity. My name is Amanda O’Bryan and I’m an award-winning designer, artist and illustrator. Let me take you on a gentle and life-affirming journey of self-love and self-expression that fosters a state of mental well-being, or as I like to call it, creative wellbeing.

I’ve written this book to uplift you, to spark your joy and to provide you with tools that will reconnect you to yourself and your creative spirit. It was born through my own recovery from Ovarian Cancer and is designed as a heart-felt reset for those looking to create a more fulfilled and balanced life of meaning and purpose with love, laughter, and simple joys.

WHAT IS

CREATIVE WELLBEING?

Did you know that the act of being intentionally creative makes you 20 times happier and healthier? (*Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2021).

Our very lives are our most creative act and every person on the planet is creative – I promise! (even if you think your are not creative).

It’s a fact that when we are being creative, our brains release chemicals that lead to better focus, positive emotions, and less stress – it’s literally like free happy juice! Intentional creativity builds new neural pathways in our brains and lays a foundation of purpose with meaning.

When we are in a state of creativity or ‘flow’, it requires focus and concentration, a blocking out of external stimuli, which changes the way our brain functions. It has a similar affect as mindfulness, meditation, or yoga practice. This creative flow unlocks a pathway to wellbeing and opens your heart.

A DAILY

CREATIVE REMEDY

HOW TO FIND HAPPINESS AND HEALTH THROUGH DAILY ACTS OF CREATIVITY

I’ve written this book to help you unlock your creative potential while you learn to silence your inner critic and re-image your creativity as a permanent state of wellbeing. I have created more than 100 everyday ways to spark a happy, healthy and creative life as you begin to rediscover your playful side and embrace experimenting with colour, scent, sound, taste and the texture of life.

You don’t have to read this book from start to finish. Choose a Daily Act of Creativity that speaks to you and simply start there. But this isn’t just a list of creative things to do. This is so much more.

This book is part inspiration, part learning, part play, all heart and creativity and within its pages you will discover:

♥ What creativity really is and why it is so important for your wellbeing.

♥ The undiscovered beliefs that hold you back from creating more freedom and confidence in your everyday life.

♥ The biological proof that women are wired for creativity.

♥ A creative wellbeing mindset that will help overcome creative blocks.

♥ Life-long creative habits that change the chemical wiring of your brain for improved health and wellbeing.

♥ An everyday practice that aligns you with your natural gifts and talents.

♥ 100 easy, fun, whimsical ways to recover and connect with your creativity.

What a surprise this book has been.

Daily Acts Of Creativity was a beautiful gift given to me by a dear friend, to be honest, I judged it as an ‘arts & crafts’ book and thought, I’ll get to that when I have time!!. Well was I mistaken! I have not been able to put it down. It is so much more than I expected, filled with such wisdom and insights as well as cool activities… If you are looking to discover a way back to creativity, self-love and cool activities then check it out.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

AMANDA O’BRYAN

CreativeQueenBee-AmandaO'Bryan-Author-Daily-Acts-Of-Creativity

I’m an artist, designer, and author who has pursued my own creativity as a career for over 25 years. In that time, I have studied Visual Arts, graduated with a BA in Design (Graphic), trained in the world-class Creative Thinking Model from The Creative Education Foundation in New York, studied Creative Arts Therapy, worked creatively with multi-million-dollar entrepreneurs, business owners – corporate, government, and community sector clients, and in creative roles behind the scenes on TV and in music. I’ve exhibited and sold my art, won art and design awards, worked with interior designers and stylists, homeowners, art/design collectors, retailers, and homeware manufacturers, aspiring, emerging and professional artists helping them bring their unique self-expression, story, and brand to the world.

But that’s not why you should listen to me about creativity. There is a far more personal and life-changing reason as to why I am deeply qualified to help women be more creative.

In 2017, completely unexpectedly, right when I was close to burnout and suffering anxiety and depression, I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer. It was my recovery process that gave birth to this book. It was a time when I learnt to honour myself first without feeling selfish or guilty for doing so and I discovered the way to a happy, healthy, creative life, had nothing to do with being creatively talented and everything to do with creative wellbeing.

I wrote the book, Daily Acts of Creativity to be beautifully illustrated and uplifting, full of techniques to re-connect with your inner muse, identify and unlock your creative style and create an imaginative life in 100+ easy, everyday ways. During my recovery, I was faced with the uncertainty of my future and practicing daily acts of creativity helped me step into my creative gifts and talents with the confidence and freedom that changed my life forever.

This book will help you do the same – it will connect you to the inner beauty and nature of who you are and align it with what you do, and the best part is you don’t need any special creative skill. I wrote this book for love, knowing creativity is the key to expressing love, living well and being happy.

Your life is your masterpiece – it’s time to show up as the artist of your own life.

Let’s do this together!

With  love and beauty,

Amanda ♥

If one word could capture the essence of Amanda O’Bryan’s “Daily Acts Of Creativity“ it would be love. Each of these fun, soulful activities asks us to take a little bit of time to listen, see, feel, sense & experience life – to breathe in our lives instead of rushing past them. By choosing to do the activities you resonate with you’ll discover that creativity isn’t about producing a work of art; it’s about play and taking time to acknowledge & love ourselves.
In “Daily Acts of Creativity“ Amanda has thoughtfully chosen creative activities to help us reconnect with the world around us so we can discover the world within. To make space in our busy lives to bee”.

Just what I needed to kickstart my year! My creativity always seems to take a back seat, for “when I have time” so of course never happens.  This will allow me to pick out a fave activity once a week and actually get started. Thanks Amanda, I love the book, your ideas are fabulous! You’ve inspired me 🙂
