HOLISTIC INTEGRATED CREATIVE ARTS THERAPY [HICAT]

Why it works: Neuroscience is the area of scientific evidence for the effectiveness of HICAT. The brain in a state of stress goes into the fight-or-flight response, aka the stress response where breathing becomes shortened and digestion is put on hold. Expressing feeling without trying to make the world’s greatest picture allows us to calm our nerves, shift some emotional energy, release tension from the limbic brain (part that handles emotion) and enter into the rest-and-digest response where breathing becomes deeper and we feel more creative and relaxed. It’s a great state of mind to solve your own problems from and troubleshoot creatively  :)

About me

I’m PJ, (xe/xem pronouns) a 40-something two-spirit valley local. Dance therapy is a passion of mine as a self taught dancer and choreographer, although I work with many different mediums (eg charcoal, oil pastels, montage, sound, writing, dance, and photography)
