A pioneering art therapist extolls the arts as a powerful tool in psychotherapy, describing how activating the imagination can heal the mind, heart, and soulThe medicine of the artist, like that of the shaman, arises from his or her relationship to familiarsthe themes, methods, and materials that interact with the artist through the creative process. Whenever illness is associated with loss of soul, writes Shaun McNiff, the arts emerge spontaneously as remedies, soul medicine. Art as Medicine demonstrates how the imagination heals and renews itself through this natural process. Author Shaun McNiff describes his pioneering methods of art therapyincluding interpretation through performance and storytelling, creative collaboration, and dialoguing with imagesand the ways in which they can revitalize both psychotherapy and art itself.
