Therapeutic Self-Expression for Emotional Healing
We all have memories that are near and dear to our hearts. But we also have memories that cause us pain. Unfortunately, we often hang onto those memories that are more painful and internalize the belief that the experiences associated with those memories are the reasons for the shortcomings in our lives. Many of us go through life disappointed about the opportunities we missed. We tend to hold on to the past, feel stuck in the present, and get discouraged when challenges come our way. We may allow our talents to go undeveloped and underestimate the wisdom we have gained through our experiences. Through art making and creative self-expression, it's possible to find deep personal healing and our inner strength to live life more fully.
In this therapeutic 7-day course, accomplished artist and art educator Aazam Irilian provides a variety of artistic techniques to help you tap into your natural creativity through personal stories, reflections, and authentic artistic expressions about you and your life. In this course, Aazam combines step-by-step instructions in art, imagery, and creative writing as tools to explore your inner strengths and the lessons you have gained from your experiences. Every lesson is a practical and powerful way to encourage mental and emotional clarity for deeper understanding of your life's journey. That journey does not end with the present but extends into the future as you devise your plans and take action toward achieving a future that only you can imagine. By the end of the course, you will compile all the work you've done during the course and create your very own beautiful and personal book about your life to keep.
