Blog Update - Mybraininajar

Expressing yourself through art and words.
I’m sure it is true that many of us were taught as children that expressing how we feel is dangerous. For me as a child expressing the huge turmoil of feelings inside me meant more abuse. As a child I thought that being an adult meant to have no feelings other than anger and lust. Every time I cried, I felt intense fear and like I’d failed. Now decades later my feelings are still trapped inside because I’ve lost the innate skill of expressing emotion. For me drawing and writing and then sharing is very healing. That is why I created my website my brain in a jar.

I've looked at the website a few times and would recommend anyone goes to have a look at the blogs and art work, there is meaning, understanding and reflection in all of it.
