Creativity and Art For Wellness

"When we are involved in creativity, we feel that we are living more fully than during the rest of life."

-Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

Expression through making art, music, writing, cooking, and gardening

All these give us outlets for creativity and practice of wellness. The process of creating provides us with therapy and the visual experience of seeing art and beauty is also healing. Walking through a garden or going to an art museum can reduce stress and increase hormones responsible for well-being.
