Hi, I am Abril !!

I am very excited that you have arrived here!!

I want to share with you the magic of art therapy, as a way towards healing and transformation that allows you to get in touch with your inner-self through art!

What is Anthroposophical Art therapy? 

Anthroposophic art therapy and “normal” art therapy are two distinct approaches to the use of the art as a therapeutic tool.

Anthroposophic art therapy is based on the philosophy of Rudolf Steiner, which emphasizes the connection between the human being and the universe, and approaches the human being as a holistic being that is made up of body, mind and spirit.

Anthropophic art therapy aims at the emotional and mental well-being of individuals.

In anthroposophic art therapy, different forms of art such as painting, sculpture, drawing, etc. are used to allow the persona to express and explore their thoughts, feelings and emotions.

These tecniques are seen as means to access deep aspects of the human being, including the unconscious, the soul and the spirit.

What are ther benefits of Art therapy? 

Self-awareness and self-expression:

It allows people to connect with their creativity and express themselves through artistic creation.

This can help them discover and explore their inner thoughts and emotions, and better understand their feelings and behaviors.

Reduction of stress and anxiety:

The action of creating can be a relaxing and therapeutic activity that helps reduce stress and anxiety levels.

Additionally, it can help people release pent-up emotions and reduce mental and emotional tension.

Improvement of self-esteem:

Expressing yourself creatively requires courage and this means making decisions to create, this allows you to discover your innate abilities and take control of your life.

This can help develop a more positive image of themselves and face challenges with more confidence.

Increased communication capacity:

It helps people develop more effective communication skills by giving them an alternative way to express themselves and communicate.

This can help them communicate more clearly and effectively in their personal and professional relationships.

Promotes general well-being:

It can improve a person’s general well-being, as it encourages self-expression, relaxation, and self-awareness.

This can have a positive effect on your physical and emotional health, as well as your overall quality of life.
