I’m starting to pay more attention to art. In school we were taught that art is drawing, painting or sculpting… but my view on that is changing.
I now see real art as a way to deeply connect with yourself and then express what is inside of you.
I have a friend who teaches painting… and she talks about how painting has helped her heal.
I have another friend who is a musician and she told me music is so healing for her.
My mom has done this with horses and my dad does it with building, his buildings are works of art.
When you tap into your inner wisdom and then express it or make something with it, it begins to heal you.
It will heal you emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
I’m learning how it’s your unique voice, perception and interpretation that needs to be unleashed, and that stifling it only stifles your well being.
Art will change you because you have to dig deep for the answers. It will wake you up at night with ideas and it will get you out of bed in the morning.
If you don’t have a way to express yourself, I encourage you to start somewhere and let the healing begin.
