~ The Power of Painting ~ Nurture your spirit through the power of art!

Creative acts, such as painting, can have an amazing effect on an individual. When we paint, we let go of tension, stress and anxiety. The level of cortisol in our body actually decreases.

Our mind, body and spirit go in to a feeling of “flow” – many feel a connection to our ancestors when immersed in doing something that taps into that inner creative spirit. Time stands still and our mind is allowed to just be in the present moment.

 

Painting is powerful

It is an amazing tool for self-care; it is a medicine! And when painting in a group, music playing, people let go of fears and tension, and then I hear a lot of laughter – and we all know that laughter is also an incredible medicine in itself!
