Healing Art: About Healing Art

Energy of Art

 

The evidence and proof is substantial and real. A combination of research being conducted by quantum physists, molecular biologist, therapist, M.D's., and Researchers in many fields related to the human anatomy and consciousness conclusively proves that images affect the autonomic nervous system. The functions of neurotransmitters, the hypothalmus and autonomic nervous system provides us with an understanding that art, on a physical level, has the ability to affect the observer.

 

How does Art Heal?

 

How does art heal? Scientific studies tell us that art heals by changing a person's physiology and attitude. The body's physiology changes from one of stress to one of deep relaxation, from one of fear to one of creativity and inspiration. Art and music puts a person in a different brain wave pattern, art and music affect a person's autonomic nervous system, their hormonal balance and their brain neurotransmitters.

 

Art and music affect every cell in the body instantly to create a high physiology that changes the immune system and blood flow to all the organs. Art and music also immediately changes a person's perceptions of their world. They change attitude, emotional state and pain perception. They create hope and positivity and they help people cope with difficulties. They transform a person's outlook and way of being in the world.

 

In fact, it is known by neurophysiologists that art, prayer, and healing all come from same source in the body; they are all associated with similar brain wave patterns, mind and body changes and they are all deeply connected in feeling and meaning. Art, prayer and healing all take us into our inner world, the world of imagery and emotion, of visions and feelings. This journey inward into what used to be called spirit or soul and is now called the mind, is deeply healing. For healing comes to us from within, our own healing resources are freed to allowed our immune system to operate optimally and that is always how we heal. This is the contemporary version of freeing our healing energies and is now recognized to be crucial to healing. We go inward on The Creative Spiral together through art and music.

 

Now, some artists, in combination with research facilities around the world have begun creating art specific for healing. The result for this are very impressive and unfolding everyday.
