  • Art Therapy Activity for Setting Boundaries - Personal boundaries are the limits we put between ourselves and other people. They may be physical, mental or emotional. It wasn’t until I learned what boundaries are that I really started to learn how to take care of myself. I’ve struggled with having weak boundaries for most of my life - where I find myself saying yes to agreements that don’t fully align with me. It reached a point where I completely lost myself and depleted all of my time and energy. Establishing healthy boundaries is so important for our mental, emotional and physical well-being. In my new video, I share an Art Therapy activity that will help you visualize, imagine and create what it would feel like in your most empowered state of having healthy boundaries.
    If you decide to do this exercise, please share with me, I would love to see your work!

    I didn't know what to expect with this one but I did feel called to use my watercolour pens. I've been learning a lot of communicating boundaries but have never drawn what it might look like. I actually drew a beautiful image of a rose with thorns and that is not what I imagined it initially just went with the flow. I love this one.

    Hi Erica, thanks for sharing. I had some difficulty doing this exercise, my drawing just felt kinda fake and not very powerful. And when i think about the boundary i have now it feels like two solid walls keeping me inside. Is there any art therapy exercise I can do to soften this self imprisonment? Any related art therapy books you can recommend? Thanks a lot! Much appreciated.

    • @EricaPangArt
      @EricaPangArt  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi! Thank you so much for sharing about you and your process. Sometimes, the art we make during these exercises can make us feel uncomfortable and there is a teaching in that. Ask yourself why it feels fake and not powerful. Perhaps, there is a reason of why it came out like that. You can try drawing it again and really think about how you can soften it. Only you know the answers and the more you keep drawing, the more the answers will be revealed. I'm not sure if there are any specific related Art Therapy books about it but I love Art as a Way of Knowing by Pat B. Allen. Hope this helps! 💖

    Hi Erica. I know that art can be used as a therapy or for healing. But did not know exactly how. I learned about ART Therapy. But I can't do graduation again. I don't have the money neither time. But I love art and want to help others using art.
    Is there any way I can do that as well as earn from it without having a degree? Just by having the experience.

    I *love* your exercises and ideas. Please don't stop posting! Also... if you have any exercises around identity - that would be so helpful not jjust for me but I'm sure many other Asian women right now. I'm half Chinese and half Caucasian and this year I've really started to understand how much I internally oppressed the "foreign" part of me, and there's grief, esp with all that's going on in the news right now. What kind of exercise ideas might help me reincorporate pieces of me I labelled wrong or bad?

    • @EricaPangArt
      @EricaPangArt  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Christie! Thank you so much for your message - it means a lot to me! Yes, I feel the grief too around all the news going around. I'm still figuring out some exercises around this as well and will post it soon. Thank you for your input. Also if you're interested, I am offering a sliding scale for my 1:1 or group sessions right now to my Asian community. Sending you love!
