How can art be a key tool in the the 'life and death struggle' for long-term recovery?
In my extensive experience, with assisting alcoholics & addicts in early recovery, it is a profound way to get inside the person... easily. I haven't seen a more useful tool in my 20+ yrs in the addiction world! That being said any top notch therapist ought to be able to 'see' inside the client intuitively or using a spiritual gift.
I know that the art created by recovering persons can become a connecting bridge to the outside world... it can educate those who do not understand the tremendous inner suffering of the addict/alcoholic. I have been privileged to present sideshows to large audiences, and this has always been extremely well received!
Hope this helps!?...blog me or email: info@innercare.org
peace,
Brian
