Making art, according to Cathy Malchiodi, may be as important to your physical and spiritual health as balanced nutrition, regular exercise, or meditation. Expressing yourself creatively -- through drawing, painting, sculpture, photography --- allows you to tap into a source of inner wisdom that can provide guidance, soothe emotional pain and revitalize your being.
The Soul's Palette reveals art's transformative powers. Exercises include working with materials for drawing and journaling projects; self-guided meditations and affirmations; ideas for cultivating intuition, Inspiration, and spontaneity, and making art a spiritual experience.
