There is a sparkly creative muse inside each of us. As children, creativity is our effortless language. We play games and explore our world with delight.In the journey to adulthood, our innate brilliance is insidiously tarnished by responsibilities to be dutiful partners, coworkers, friends, and citizens.We tell ourselves to be grateful. Don't complain. This is how it is. We hide our disappointment in sips of wine, yoga classes, and mandated "resiliency" seminars. But what if you're given the gift of a near-death experience that forces your eyes wide open to the beauty of a creative life again?This is what happened to Lara Salyer, a burned-out, family "doctor mom" in the rural Midwest who rediscovered her dormant creativity and saved her career. Just when she wanted to quit medicine entirely, this experience inspired her grassroots mission to incorporate art and creativity back into medical care. Candid and sassy, expressive and fearless, Right Brain Rescue is both a touching memoir and a call to action for all of us to color outside the lines and reinvent life on our own terms. This is a story of how one woman did everything "right" to enjoy a triumphant career as a family physician, but crumbled under the same pressure as many others in conventional "factory medicine"-the pressure to flip patients every fifteen minutes like burgers on a grill.It's a story about bravely walking away from a stable, profitable career into a blank canvas of the unknown in order to live a fully authentic and awake life.This is not a self-help book or a how-to book, but you might recognize some self and help in these pages. Right Brain Rescue is a literary "creativity prescription" that will inspire us to think differently about how we use our energy, explore our values, and care for our bodies and minds so we can become the most sparkly version of ourselves.
