Up: [[Expressive Art Ideas - A Long List]] Created: 2024-01-05 ### Four Steps 1. Set an intention and write it down. 2. Breath work to connect to my body until I’m at the point where I feel physical sensations. Imagine what the sensation would look like if it were an image — consider colours, shapes or forms. 3. Draw the image. 4. Answer the self-exploration questions. ### Self-Exploration Questions 1) As I look at my check-in drawing, how does it make me feel? 2) What does this drawing tell me about how I feel emotionally? 3) How do the colours make me feel? 4) Is there anything about my drawing that disturbs me? Write a few sentences about how or why this part disturbs me. 5) What do I like best about my drawing? Write a few sentences about how this part makes me feel. 6) What have I learned from this drawing about what I feel? 7) Are these emotions related to a particular current issue or concern? If so, what is it? 8) Does knowing what I feel about this issue or concern help me deal with it? If so, how? > [!user] Barbara Ganim and Susan Fox > *Visual Journaling: Going Deeper than Words* (1999) pp. 36-38
