Paint it: For Health
Self expression is vital for health and happiness in both children and adults. Applegreen Research is committed to improving quality of life by providing a variety of holistic tools geared towards overall well being.
Painting encourages self expression, creative growth and imparts a sense of accomplishment-even if it is just one stroke on paper. It also strengthens memory by boosting recollection skills and helps build problem solving skills. Painting sharpens the mind through visualization and its implementation. Painting helps shut out the news and social media clutter coming in and puts something out instead. But that’s not all.
The American Journal of Public Health published a review, The Connection Between Art, Healing, and Public Health. In this review, researchers analyzed more than 100 studies about the effect of art on not only our health but also our innate ability to heal ourselves. The studies analyzed the effect of various art activities including writing, dance, music, and visual arts, like painting, drawing and ceramics.
Each study examined more than 30 patients suffering from chronic illness and cancer. Below is a list of the findings of the effect of visual art activity on subject patients...
“Art is a refuge from intense emotion”
“enhanced their self-worth and identity”
“diminished cortisol related to stress, and less medication needed to induce sleep”
“decreasing their negative emotions and enhancing their positive emotions”
“trend toward reduced levels of depression.”
Who wants to reduce stress and anxiety? Improve focus? Want your child to be happy and smart? So how about some self expression?
