Nourishing The Body and Soul with Art

It is no secret that making art can be beneficial to your health. Many studies have been conducted to examine the relationship between creativity and the overall health benefits that come from creating and observing art. Art relieves stress, boosts self-esteem, improves mood and memory, and is widely used to alleviate the symptoms of some chronic health issues, not to mention it’s just fun. Pablo Picasso once said, “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” So if you are feeling like you need a little nourishment for the soul, we have just the recipe.
