Art allows us to express ourselves visually and rely less on verbal expression. Let's explore this link between healing, art, and how to relax your inner critic and perfectionist parts so the muse can reveal to you what is needed to pave the way to physical, emotional, and spiritual liberation. Art is a therapeutic technique rooted in the idea that creative expression can foster healing and mental well-being. It can be used to help people explore their emotions, develop self-awareness, cope with stress, boost self-esteem, and work on social skills. The goal of this art workshop is to utilize the creative process to help people explore self-expression and, in doing so, find new ways to gain personal insight and develop new coping skills. Art has been used as a means of communication, self-expression, group interaction, diagnosis, and conflict resolution throughout history. For thousands of years, cultures and religions around the world have incorporated the use of carved idols and charms, as well as sacred paintings and symbols, in the healing process. Art helps facilitate cognitive disruption by moving attention away from rumination. This redirection of attention away from worrying then helps to regulate the nervous system. You will only need a blank sheet of paper, colored pens, pencils, or markers. Whatever you have at home. :)
