Mindful Art Therapy for Young Adults
Instructor Lynn Cukaj – ATR-BC
This class teaches mindful techniques and how to incorporate it and art into everyday life. Mindfulness is a frame of mind, being keenly aware of the present and acknowledging and accepting our actions and thoughts with a non-judgmental attitude. Art is a natural way to practice mindfulness. The colors, textures, and sounds of creating pull us into the moment. You don’t need any previous training to meditate through art, just a willingness to draw like a child, with freedom and a sense of curiosity.
