Creative Therapies - A Sense of Self

I attended a full day of workshops and talks last week, held by the Creative Therapies group from Glasgow. It was a fabulous day of meeting individuals from all backgrounds such as art therapists, animators and NHS workers, just to name a few that were all involved in wanted to learn more about how being creative and expressing ourselves in many ways can influence and help all sorts of people that are going through hard times, or stay within establishments or just need a little help/distraction.

I attended 3 workshops throughout the day exploring a few ways in which we can use art, music and materials to engage in discussions without words to a certain extent and how they made us feel overall.

It is a day ill never forget, meeting so many people all wanting to use creative ways to help folk was very refreshing and I was so privileged to have such an opportunity, especially as many events like this are closed to the 'public' as such.
