About the Course
Engaging with art can support well-being by helping us build skills that have value in our daily lives, such as deepening awareness, considering new perspectives, and sparking inspiration. When we tend to our well-being, we cultivate our sense of purpose, identity, insight, and connection with ourselves and others. By taking this course, we hope you discover what well-being looks like, feels like, and means to you and that you find new ways to nurture well-being in your life through art.
Art offers us one approach to the difficulty of slowing down, noticing what’s happening inside ourselves, and feeling present and attuned as we move through the world. In this course you will explore different ways art can support well-being using a wide range of practices and approaches. You’ll hear from mindfulness instructors, therapists, artists, somatic practitioners, educators, researchers, and scientists. You’ll learn about the healing qualities they’ve found in art and the ways art enriches well-being. Along the way, we hope that you’ll discover how art can serve as inspiration for routines and activities that you can bring into your life.
How you approach this course is up to you—there’s no right or wrong way to embark on this journey! Start where you want, go at your own pace, feel free to skip around or engage with your favorite activity more than once. All we ask is that you stay curious along the way. We hope that in taking this course you feel more connected to yourself, others, and the world around you.
Please note: This course is not therapy. While the course may feel therapeutic and includes the perspectives of therapists and practitioners in adjacent fields, it is not clinical. If you're interested in therapy of any kind, we suggest you reach out to a licensed professional or organization to find the best approach for you....
