#feedyourselfyourart

We give so much to our clients. We also get caught up in the day to day and sometimes fall into an emotionless routine. We must remember to consistently pour into ourselves so that we are not pouring out our very last drops. This is unhealthy for us as well as it is not good for the receiver. When we take time to replenish our spirit, it allows us to serve others from the overflow. We cannot serve nor should we serve from an empty vessel.

Let's take our modalities, lock the doors and immerse oursleves in them. Let's be greedy with our time and remind ourselves why we love this art. Let's feed our spirits, drink up its goodness, and remind ourselves of when we first fell in love with it.

When interviewing respective arts therapists, CATC often asks "why did you choose creative arts therapies?, why this specific modality? Often times it's not in their verbal responses that get our attention, it's how they convey and present the answer. Can we feel that love and passion permeating through their words and out of their bodies? Is that pure energy paired with what they say? That is the beautiful energy that you just can't hide or make up
