(Oxford) Diploma : Art Therapy Kindness - reduce depression free download

ACCREDITED Art Therapy course showing how to cope with Depression and Anxiety//Teaching your child to be kind

Remember: This course includes a manual - work through it at your own pace.

This course is exactly as it says in the title:

1. Be kind (how? when? to whom?)

2. Be happy (why? how does kindness do this?)

3. Reduce stress (through being kind?)

Each lecture follows the same format:

a. Discussion about the title eg H.E.L.P.S.O. or S.H.E.B.A.D

b. A focus on what to do as an example of being kind

c. A focused 2-3 minute meditation

Remember throughout that this is a course to be used, with exercises to do and to share (hence the Child Psychology element)  to reflect, to analyse and discuss. In a world at war where loneliness and depression are commonplace, the course, the Q/A offers a place where emotions can be shared and - as per a 'global classroom' - self-exploration and understanding are developed. Throughout the approach is one of gentle encouragement - participate and share as much as you wish.

A fourth section has been added:

Using Art Therapy to explore and share kind actions.  remember: being kind to others is also being kind to yourself.

This is very much a 'doing' course - with a high level of Instructor involvement - and Child Psychology!

Straightforward. Practical.
