Why Painting More = Less Stress

Worry and anxiety, by definition, aren’t real. They are simply thoughts we have about the future about things that may or may not happen. By staying in the present moment, we can deal with reality as it exists. This reduces worry and anxiety and prevents us from feeling overwhelmed by the sheer number of possibilities that “could” happen in the future. Paint More Stress Less will help reduce stress as it allows you to center yourself and pay more attention to what is happening in the moment, lowering cortisol (the stress hormone) in as little as 45 minutes!
