Explore your creativity to find  wellness and healing

All around the world there is an increasing amount of scientific evidence that proves art enhances the brain function. 

It has an impact on brain wave patterns and emotions, the nervous system, and can actually raise serotonin levels. 

Art can change a person's outlook and the way they experience the world.



Your art can become a way to look into and communicate thoughts and emotions that seem too complex or confusing to articulate by talking alone.

Helping reduce pain, enhance relaxation and stimulation of ideas and imagination.

Through learning a new skill, hobby and expressing yourself through creativity helps your healing journey.

Artistic Quotes



“Where the spirit does not work with the hand there is no art.” ~ Leonardo da Vinci


Recognising your own growth and inner strength

Art therapy can give you a voice which you can use to communicate your thoughts and feelings. Through examining the inner self, and the experiences that have shaped you, you have an opportunity to start recognising your strengths.



Self-expression and expression of feelings



Lessons learned

Joining an online group or attending an art class through creating and feedback this can increase your confidence and learn new skills.

Completing your picture

We all see different things from our personal perception and taste and sometimes we are our worst critic.


It seems easier to compare our work with others one thing I look to do after each project.......

Remember:


  • Keep all my art no matter what it looks like          

(This helps to look back, review and see how much I have improved or learned on my journey)

  • Some things made I will love, others not like as much (this is normal)

  • All artists go through this critical phase  

  • We can always learn and improve  

(Think how you would do things differently next time)


  • Learn from our experiences, new styles and techniques

  • Accept praise and feedback from others 

  • There is always something new to learn

  • Relax, have fun and accept things for what they are.



Be true to yourself


Discover your inner style


You are your own worst critic - Listen to your positive inner voice not the critic



My inner voice says "Let's share the beauty of creativity" and I discovered a way to share through my blogs and various groups.
