Self-help Healing Arts Journal: Reclaiming the inner artist to heal the soul.

The Self-help Healing Arts Journal believes that the healing arts (all art) has the ability to help heal emotional wounds. This site provides a safe place to help you reclaim your inner artist, improve your self esteem and reach your dreams.

Do you remember when you were a child and how much you loved coloring, cutting and pasting? Was your tongue sticking out the side of your mouth in total concentration? Don't you miss that? The Self-help Healing Arts Journal is here to help you reclaim that innner child artist.

Art healing is not about being an artist, its about re-awakening the inner child who loved to color, cut, paste, and use her imagination in wonderous ways. Don't worry if you think you can't draw, paint, or write. This place is for your creative art healing, no one needs to see your artwork except you.

I am not an art therapist, counselor, or psychologist. I am an artist who has intuitively used art since childhood to heal my soul, improve my self esteem, reach my goals, deal with death, and become a happier, healthier person.

In the Self-help Healing Arts Journal you will find healing art projects, creative writing prompts, collage, and journaling projects using motivational and inspirational quotes, lyrics and poems. There will also be clip art to print and use in your art projects, examples of my personal healing art work, and techniques to create song bits to retrain your brain. I'll also review self-help books, cds and tapes; and books on journaling, art journaling and collage.

There are also articles and information on art healing (and art therapy), the healing power of artwork and music, self-esteem tests and questionaires for self-analysis. As well as many other topics related to how art can be used as a healing process by everyone, and help you deal with depression, Chronic Relapse, fear, loneliness and other negative forces that keep you from feeling good. And for those who would like to share your healing art work, there will be an online art gallery for Self Help Healing Arts Journal community members in the upcoming future.

The Self-help Healing Arts Journal believes that there is no right or wrong way in self-help art healing; there is only experimentation and exploration, learning and laughing, coloring and crying, pasting and humming..."
