Publisher's Summary

Embark on a self-fulfilling journey that will help you discover more about yourself–ease that weight off your shoulders and encourage your mind to finally relax.

Are you constantly fighting an internal battle with yourself that leaves you feeling exhausted, emotionally drained, and fed up?

Do you struggle to express how you really feel, and keep everything bottled up to the point where it becomes overwhelming?

Do you want to find that release by exploring your creative side and enjoying a fun, transformative journey to clear your mind?

Did you know that up to nine out of 10 people feel that they don’t or can’t express themselves freely to others for fear of burdening them with their struggles?

It’s a common fact that affects many individuals and can result in negatively impacting different areas of their lives, including mental health and emotional well-being.

There is a solution that can help you ease that tight feeling in your chest and explore those feelings in a safe, judgment-free way that anyone can try.

Art therapy is used across the world to help people explore more about themselves and discover how they can let go of worries, be in the present, and enjoy a sense of calm.

Explore different materials and forms of expression so you can find something that you really enjoy doing. Art isn’t just about painting and drawing–it is so much more than that!

There is a misconception that you have to be good at art to use art as therapy, and that’s not true at all. There is no right or wrong when it comes to being creative, so don’t let that fear become a barrier.

In this self-help book, you will discover:

  • A variety of innovative activities that encourage a positive exploration of the self and a tool for understanding your emotions.
  • Focused chapters that identify and target specific developments in areas such as self-compassion, self-esteem, self-worth, positive thinking, and more.
  • Specific activities designed to help you let go of the past and move on.
  • A guiding and reassuring voice throughout that helps develop deeper thought.
  • Helpful check-in exercises to focus on acknowledging your mental health.
  • Mixed media methods that encourage creativity–find the materials you enjoy using the most!
  • Interactive all-age suitable activities so that anyone can get involved.
  • Engaging resources that can be used in both group and individual settings.
  • Tips on being mindful and incorporating mindfulness into sessions to relieve stress and anxiety.

And much more.

Even if you think you aren’t creative or that you don’t have the experience, this is the place to start. Art is something anyone can do to enhance their creative expression, so don’t hesitate!

The sooner you start exploring your artistic curiosity, the sooner you will be able to understand yourself and your emotions more clearly.

Begin your journey to peace and let that tension ease out of your life.
