Self-compassion and the Art of Acceptance with Grace Miceli

On this week's episode of Looking Up, Dr. Deepika Chopra talks with artist and mental health advocate Grace Miceli. This conversation is honest and beautiful, as Grace opens up about how she discovered art as a key to access her emotions while young, and the journey she has been on to have her work reflect the inner peace she fought to find throughout her 20's. She talks me through her own thoughts around creating meaningful art out of a place of health over pain, how she blocks out the noise to take care of herself, self-compassion and rest, how boredom became her favorite space to create out of, and how taking a break last spring after her book published changed her life. There couldn't be a better guest to leave you with as Looking Up goes on a hiatus than Grace, and her wise words, so please enjoy this episode and remember, things are looking up!
