Kintsugi for Wellbeing:
Embracing Imperfection and Finding Strength in Repair
Kintsugi is the traditional Japanese art of repairing broken pottery using precious metals. Rather than disguising the cracks, kintsugi highlights them, creating distinctive patterns that become part of the object’s story and increase its aesthetic appeal.
Kintsugi is a powerful metaphor for personal healing and growth. It invites us to accept our flaws and past experiences, recognising them as contributors to our strength and character rather than as shortcomings to be concealed.
Learn more about the philosophy of kintsugi here, including how it can be applied to mental health and wellbeing to promote resilience, self-compassion and personal growth!
Enjoy!
