Arts for Healing
My name is Martene, I am a 49 soon to be 50 year old Art and wellbeing practioner. My hope is that you will find inner peace and happiness. The journey of self discovery starts the moment we are born and continues to grow until the day we die. learning to live in each and every moment with no interruptions can feel exhilarating. Why not come along and see for yourself.
Art can become a way to look into and communicate thoughts and emotions that seem too complex or confusing to articulate by talking alone.
Creating and discussing art with a therapist can help you to see your intense yet jumbled feelings more clearly. It also allows you to share emotions which can be described as "negative" but which we may all experience from time to time, including anger, sadness, grief and emotional pain.
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.
creative process can be one of the most rewarding aspects. Coupled with an art therapist, you should gradually, if not immediately, feel comfortable with this newfound form of expression. After all, the goal is not necessarily to create an art masterpiece.
