art and mental health
eto YA* studio's mission is to work on promoting mental wellbeing, encouraging forums about mental health, advocating that everyone is entitled for support and meaningful care.
if you are a sensitive person, it may mean that you are actually deeply attuned to the most delicate movements of your inner being and possibly highly artistic. love for yourself and others is extremely sensitive, it can be easily scared off or hurt. people try to 'fit in' by being cynical and some consider showing love as naive and weak.
if you want to do art or something creative (drama, dance, design, singing, music etc), it may actually be a sign that you NEED to do it. this may be your healing.
please look after yourself!
eto YA* studio is proud to collaborate with Flowwa
FROM FLOWWA WEBSITE:
Flowwa is a survivor-led, Not-For-Profit organisation that runs art and wellness workshops, nature retreats and peer support groups for violence survivors.
From the beginning, our mission has always been about inspiring self-love and empathy, helping them heal, grow and express their 'authentic self' freely.
Like all kinds of flowers in nature, everyone's journeys of healing and growing is unique and everyone has an important role to play in our community.
Flowwa is rooted in the Japanese belief that honours nature and that humans are equal residents of this planet among all creatures of nature. It's in our name "Flow-wa" - 'Wa' in Japanese means 'Harmony' and 'Community' and is the sound of amazement, wonders and appreciation.
