Description

This is a very unusual Art Therapy course as we explore how art therapy may be applied to:

• Nature

• Mining

• Survival skills

• Hiking

The last three, in particular, are unusual topics for Art therapy as such courses usually cover emotions (anxiety, anger, joy, depression etc) rather than...mining (?)

The whole purpose is to show how once you understand the basics of Art Therapy then the techniques within 'art therapy' can be applied to a variety of situations. The significance of this is that this course is very practical. there are Art Therapy exercises. There are Case Studies.

Must most importantly there is you - and (hopefully) hundreds of other students.

The more you delve into Art Therapy (and apply it to your own life then the more you will learn about yourself. if you regularly post to the Q/A in this course you will also learn about the process in the exercises and you will see the work of others.

If you devote time to this course, organise you schedule and then fully focus then you will gain a lot. So, gather some art materials, check your schedule and book yourself a time to explore - and apply - what is contained here.

Who this course is for:

• Hikers
• Anyone who thinks art therapy has limited application
• All who love nature
• All who love history
• "Anyone who is on other Art Therapy courses and wants something different"
