Art as therapy

Art is something that expresses an idea, an emotion or more

generally a world view. It is a way to manifest the splendour of life, also a colourful story which expels strength and power.

The words which we cannot speak or write can be

communicated with the colours. Art is an embodiment of our

thoughts, emotions and desires but it is even more personal than

that - it is about our way of experiencing the world.

Many people often use art to express their feelings and life on paper. If

you give colours to kids without brush, still they will make a beautiful

drawing using their imagination. As a child, we are free from responsibilities or problems. With this free mind, we get to assert creative independence. This young mind puts up every colour it fancies on the canvas without worrying about the rules, regulations or results and somehow it gives the kid unparalleled joy.

But when we grow older we are so busy and stressed out that we forget how small things like these can be so therapeutic, which can be so much important in our life. Art can help us get rid of our worries and anxiety. So let us take up one art form to express ourselves and to say those unspoken words make a beautiful greater world which is full of peace.
