Healing with the Arts!
Manage episode 436654996 series 2797990
With all this talk about the teaching of contempt and religion, we thought it was time for a little relief: a little ART relief!
When I had cancer five years ago, part of the available treatment was a studio program where we created art. They kept saying, “It’s about the process, not the product.”
I can hardly even express the joy this has opened up in me.
I was amazed to learn that people who participate in the arts – art, music, dance, whatever it is for you – lower their chance of dying early by 31%! Remarkable.
Alice Walker said, “If art doesn’t make us better, what on earth is it for?”
Today, on a very special FreedHearts Podcast episode, we talk about healing with the arts.
Love, Susan
