Winter Art Practice

By Holly Madden

This art practice guides you into a space of connecting with and honoring the season of winter. This practice also honors the need to connect to rest and stillness in this season. Art can be incredibly supportive during the many emotional and depressive experiences of the winter months.

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.
