Episode 56: How Art Helps Us Heal
Manage episode 407439634 series 3560237
When I first picked up the paintbrush, I had no idea how much art would one day impact my life. At first, painting was just a fun hobby, a way to add some me time in my life. I didn’t know that it would SAVE my life.
The truth is, though: Art heals. Not just mentally, but physically, too. In this episode of the Honest Art Podcast, I want to talk about why.
Even if you’ve never even so much as touched paint or drawn a stick figure before, you’re going to want to listen to this one! Because truly, we can all benefit from art.
