A recent collage completed. When it comes to addiction the first challenge is admitting you have a problem. Acceptance is the key to recovery. #collagetherapy #michelleeblack #healingprocess

Today I’m looking at the excesses on my life. Fast fashion, fast food, and my slowly evolving addiction to overpriced coffee drinks. The indulgences that I’ve grown accustomed to.

Still on the other app but slowly making the transition. Doubling down on my local community, my art, and family. Staying vigilant and aware while lowkey prepping for doomsday. Drawn to Holocaust movies, focusing on perseverance in the face of evil. And turning off my automatic iPhone updates! 😅

I love a great mural! Here’s one in our beloved Pasadena outside my favorite local bookstore Vroman’s.

So many times my feelings convince me of something not based in facts. The longer I can pause before reacting, the better. Here’s that collage! These days, it’s far more challenging!!

One of my side hustles is Collage Therapy in treatment centers. Today we did an “I Am”affirmation collage!

Today we no longer live in the land of the free but of the pacified.😢

I’ve had so many reach out to me because of the fires in Los Angeles. What most people don’t realize is that the city’s population is more than the population of half the states in America’s entire state population. Devastating damage yes, but those not affected, most are “business as usual.”
