Fall Art Practice

By Holly Madden

Fall is a beautiful season that symbolizes harvest, celebration of what has been created, and often inspires a sense of nostalgia and reflection as the world gears up for the still, restful winter. This practices centers into this season by honoring the color and physical expression of letting go that the trees model for us.

Trauma Training Takeaways: Art is a powerful form of expression, and in the outlet of expressing emotion or storytelling, healing can occur. Engaging in healing work, no matter the form, can bring up trauma and triggers. This requires sensitivity, compassion, and gentleness, whether it’s with yourself or with someone you are engaging with and caring for. Pursuing help and support from a licensed practitioner should always be encouraged and supported.
