Therapeutic Art: Intentions and Aspirations

Use art as a channel to express your emotions throughout this course.

This is not a course for artists to progress as artists or to learn how to be an artist, but for anyone to go deeper into the subconscious mind using art as a medium to uncover ideas, underlying issues, or deep-seated emotions that are the cause of your daily troubles. Then using Therapeutic Art as the tool to deal with these possibly distressing or confusing emotions, both calming the distress and using visuals as a way to see these emotions in front of you. You’ll even find yourself having fun in the process!

This is an introductory course to help you discover your true desires and passions, and how to move into having these in your life, and you will see what it is you need to do to change your yourself, your life and your world. What do you want to happen in your life next year or in the next 5 years? Where do you want to be – in your mind, body on your life path? And how can you make this happen? I will help you to help yourself throughout this course!

Setting good intentions for ourselves and others has far greater effect than most of us truly know. The effects can be miraculous if our intentions are truly believed to be reality. Just as Dr Randolph Byrd showed in a study in a San Francisco Hospital, with two control groups of heart patients: one group were prayed for by some volunteers, the other was not. The prayed-for group reported to be 5 times less likely to need antibiotics and 3 times less likely to develop fluid in the lungs, whilst also none of the prayed-for group needed artificial ventilation whilst 12 members of the non-prayed for group did. This clearly shows just how powerful our thoughts, prayers and intentions can be – even so much as making someones health better! When a loved one is ill and you feel helpless thinking, “I wish there was something I could do” There is!In this course we will look at what we want, our aspirations, and make these intentions to bring them about in our lives and those around us.

No prior experience of doing any form of art is required!

This is a 4 week course designed for you to take the time and space each week for a creative exercise whilst you contemplate the questions I give you about your Self and your life. You can do the exercises in any timeframe you desire, however I advise having time to reflect between each exercise, ideally sticking to it being 4 weeks.

Use your preferred materials for any of the exercises, even if I am using paint you can use pencil, pen, crayons, pastels, collage or anything else you can think of! The priority is for you to do the exercise itself, no matter the material being used, and see what comes up for you.
