Art Therapy is the use of drawing and other art forms in a therapeutic setting to facilitate sharing and discussion between the client and the therapist. It is a non-verbal psychotherapy that came into prominence in the 1930’s. There are two basic concepts in art therapy theory: art is a healing form of expression, and there are strong connections between a person’s expression through art and the person’s psychological health.

🤙 Therapy through menopause will help!

Margaret Atwood’s play on words in “Menopause” cleverly highlights the multifaceted nature of this life stage. The phrase “A pause while you reconsider men” suggests a moment of reflection not only on personal health and change but also on relationships and societal roles.

This succinct statement captures the essence of menopause as a transformative period, prompting women to reassess their lives, identities, and connections with others. Atwood’s wit invites contemplation on how this biological transition can influence one’s perspective on gender dynamics and personal empowerment.

It’s a thought-provoking reminder that menopause is not just a physical change; it’s also an opportunity for introspection and growth.

It’s time to change how we talk about violence against women.

Christina Ricci , known for The Addams Family and Yellowjackets, shared this in response to a video by fellow actress Jameela Jamil, urging us to refocus the narrative on the men responsible for these violent crimes 👏
