According to the American Art Therapy Association, art has the power to improve and enhance the physical, mental and emotional well-being of individuals of all ages. Art therapy is based on the belief that the creative process involved in artistic self-expression helps people to resolve conflicts and problems, develop interpersonal skills, manage behavior, reduce stress, increase self-esteem and self-awareness and achieve insight. (exerpted from stjoenews.net)
I believe that empowering my students in these emotional areas through the creative process is one of the gifts I can offer to increase peasce and harmony in the world.
