What is art therapy ?

Art therapy, is a process-oriented non-verbal form of therapy in which the power of colour and form is  used to heal, restore the balance or transform a personal situation.

Each technique is tailored to your personal situation, both for physical complaints such as headaches, respiratory disorders or insomnia, as well as for psychological complaints such as fatigue, stress, or anxiety .

During a painting session, your breathing is tailored to your use of colour and shape, as well as how you relax your body.

You paint with rhythm, paying attention to your breathing and work structurally towards the completion of your artwork.

This experience is enhanced by a theme such as the seasons, the day-and-night rhythm, the rainbow colours and other combinations of colour and shape that increase your inner space.

A drawing session is aimed at increasing the perceptive capacity, initiating inner movement, and working in an orderly and focused manner.

Meditative modelling is a way to bring yourself into contact with the earthly and physical.

You work concentrated with a ball of clay that you warm with your hands and then shape.

Sculpting or modelling has a harmonizing effect on your digestion and a calming effect on your mental state.

You experience that you create and shape your reality.
