Ep 68: The Art of Saucha - A Creative Spring Cleanup
Apr 07, 2026In Episode 68 of the iROSE Podcast, Jodi Rose Gonzales explores how art-based mindfulness and mindful creativity can remove the subtle clutter that obscures clarity in our creative lives. Drawing from the yogic concept of saucha — the practice of conscious cleanliness and discernment — and the natural rhythms of spring, Jodi explains how small acts of clearing in our spaces, practices, and thinking can restore creative focus and reveal what was always present beneath the noise.
You’ll also receive a simple but powerful art-based mindfulness prompt designed to help you reconnect with your creative direction and see your life with fresh clarity.
