Self-Care Through Creativity: Turn Your Anxiety Into Art

Art can be an incredibly powerful tool for working through difficult emotions. Join animation director, illustrator and human Sarah Beth Morgan to learn how to turn your anxiety into artwork.

This class is all about the process. It’s about taking your internal struggles - your emotions and especially your anxiety - and breaking them down to create art. Along the way, maybe we’ll even relieve some of that nervous energy that’s been wrapped up inside of you. 

You’ll feel your way through emotional art-making, while learning more about yourself and your anxieties along the way. We’ll start by exploring our inner emotions and following a few actionable creative exercises. Then, we’ll bring those emotions into the physical realm - using whatever medium you feel most comfortable with. You’ll end up with a new art piece - and hopefully a little less anxiety! 

Lessons Include:

• An insightful interview with a real-deal art therapist
• Helpful tips for setting up a safe space to explore your emotions
• 3 actionable art therapy exercises to help you pull inspiration from your anxiety
• How to re-invent your everyday creative process to cater to your emotional experience

*Important Note* I am not a mental health professional - I’m just a gal who has a LOT of experience with anxiety, but your anxiety might very different from mine. The tools and ideas I mention in this class are what work for me, but they may not be the best for you.
