How I Use Art to Heal Trauma and Shame - E50

Hush Your Mind: Building a Better Relationship With Yourself by Annie Moussu

Episode notes

Research shows that making art can heal trauma, lowers stress and activates the reward center of the brain (so we feel good). I loved to draw as a child. Somewhere along the way though, making art became another way to seek approval. My parents oohed and ahhed when I replicated a portrait by hand. As an adult, I tried to reignite that innocent spark to create, but my inner critic attacked every paint stroke and I nearly stopped creating altogether. So I asked myself, "Where do these mean remarks come from? What can I learn about myself?" Tune into this episode to discover how I use art to heal trauma and shame.
