More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Feelings either flow naturally, like a river, or get dammed up. If our emotions become blocked, we can become tense, unhappy, anxious, or depressed. This book offers simple techniques for using art to embrace, understand, and release our emotions so that we can experience a greater sense of well-being in our lives.
In The Art of Emotional Healing, Lucia Capacchione presents the simple yet powerful methods she uses in her internationally acclaimed workshops, showing us how to reach inside and let our feelings out through drawing, painting, journal writing, collage making, sculpting, drumming, dancing, mask making, and more. No artistic talent or skill is required, only a desire to let go of self-criticism and discover how we really feel.

The mystery within...
15 Feb 2006
Format:Paperback
Lucia Capacchione's Art of Emotional Healing offers a rich array of tools, ideas, exercises, experiences and wisdom to enrich our day to day living. Though this is new material, exploring many different expressive media, this book is somewhat similar to her excellent first book, The Creative Journal, in that it is also jam packed with artful directions for new and fresh results. Drawing, painting, writing, dialoguing, dancing, mask making and so many more activities are explored with Lucia's characteristic insight. I found a simple exercise about movie watching answered an important question I had been unable to clarify for myself until then - and that was just a five minute excursion! Our emotional life does not stop growing and changing, and the deeper we go into this practice called Life, the more we find to contemplate, explore and enrich us. What is important is stepping up to the plate and being willing to look inside. This book helps us to keep our eyes open, and it helps us to keep up the surprise of discovery. Veterans of personal enquiry will find much to inspire, and newbies can feel reassured that they are in Lucia's safe and capable hands. Any artists feeling stuck, in a rut or disenchanted will find new energy here. One could hardly ask for a better guide into the grand mystery of you.

Who thought healing could be so fun?
31 Jan 2006
Format:Paperback
This book offers so many wonderful ways to express, understand and move through your emotional inner landscape. It is a veritable treasure chest of ideas and "angles" to help you mine the important insights within your emotions. I especially liked that it used so many methods of self-expression. You could easily find something that fit your mood or interests, even combining two forms of self expression, such as movement plus writing about how that felt. A form of non-invasive, private self-therapy that is FUN! Very liberating!

Excellent resource
7 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
I saw this author at an art therapy workshop a couple of years ago. It was an incredibly moving and meaningful experience, and I decided I wanted the book as a resource for my therapy work. It's a really comprehensive resource, including exercises in many different modalities such as movement and sound. I recommend it.
