Behold, the scribble-blob technique! This is a simple Art Meditation technique that is quick, newbie-friendly, and satisfying. It's a great practice for clearing out overthinking, worry, and general brain fog (I like to think of it as taking the "blah" out of my mind and putting it onto paper). No experience, skill, or color theory knowledge needed to engage in this practice!

Fun fact: the longer you do this practice, the more natural it is to let go of self-judgment (aka the thoughts that sound like, "ugh this is terrible!") - yes, those thoughts might still come up, but it gets easier to detach from those thoughts and drop into the present moment.

Art supplies used in this video:

- watercolor sketchbook
- watercolor brush pens
- water brush pen (filled with water)
- Sharpie marker
- paint markers

Tip 1: you can complete each phase of the process (the watercolor brush phase and the paint marker phase) as a standalone meditation, or you can extend your session by including a mindfulness practice in between, while the watercolor dries. Sometimes, I'll create a few watercolor blobs for myself to come back to another day when I really need the benefits of mindful scribbling.

Tip 2: do this practice directly in a sketchbook to prevent yourself from getting too attached to the outcome. Let it look terrible, if that's what it wants...it's about the process and how you feel, not the end result. Done as a regular practice, this exercise will help you let go of self-judgment.
