“In terms of research of things that really benefit us and keep us on an even keel, mindfulness research is just off the charts effective.”— Scott McBeanCreativity can be a lot of things: a way to make money, a way to bring joy… and even a mindfulness practice.Pastor and mental health counsellor Scott McBean treats creativity as a source of positivity and a powerful way to maintain his mental health. His creative practices are little things that bring him joy, such as playing guitar or doing family photography.He also sees creative exercises as opportunities for mindfulness.Scott is a strong believer in the physical and psychological benefits of mindfulness, which is about so much more than just meditation.A few mornings per week, he'll read poetry for 15-20 minutes and then write his own poem. For Scott, this exercise serves as a mindfulness practice.“People often think that that looks like something like centering prayer, or sitting in silence and stillness, or counting your breaths and things like that. Those are mindfulness practices, absolutely, but mindfulness practices are also things that engage other senses, too,” Scott says. “Writing... being out in nature… taking dedicated time to engage each of your five senses serves the same function as some kind of stereotypical mindfulness practice of sitting in silence somewhere.”Painting, dancing, or even something like washing dishes can be practiced mindfully and creatively.In this episode, you'll discover: How you can transform a surprising number of activities into mindfulness practices Why the ‘tortured artist' trope exists — and how pain and creativity became linked What makes all the difference when it comes to creating good art v. mediocre artAbout Scott McBeanScott is a pastor and mental health counsellor at Northstar Community, a recovery ministry in Richmond, VA. He enjoys playing guitar, watching movies, and spending time with his wife Brittany and daughter Norah.

Songs that guitars sing , and a guitarist who played with THE Tommy Emmanuel when he was just 11. This is episode 34 of Caffe Lena : 60 Years of Song . Thank you to Sarah for compiling the list of artists and songs for the feature. With a hollow neck and Hawaiian origin, the Weissenborn guitar is an unusual instrument. Ed Gerhard was captivated at first sound in the 90’s. He once said when you realize you sit and make the sound yourself, you’re hooked for life. He doesn’t write instrumental songs, he wrote songs that guitars can sing. Quentin Callewaert was a typical kid who loved music, except that he was playing with the great Tommy Emmanuel at 11 years old! His passion followed him through high school while he ran on the cross country team and wrote songs with his dad and now he is studying guitar in college. Caffe Lena: 60 Years of Song, a production of WEXT Radio.
