HOLISTIC INTEGRATED CREATIVE ARTS THERAPIES COURSE

The Body, Mind and Soul are more connected than what we are given to believe.  If they are not all working together in harmony, the mental, physical and emotional health can be impacted on in many ways.  For example, if something has been troubling individuals mentally or emotionally, the symptoms will be manifested in to physical feelings of being unwell.   Therefore, when you are at peace within, you will tend to be a more peaceful, happier, and healthier person. 


HICAT can play an important part in helping people maintain good health and overall well being.  Through this course you will learn to help and teach yourself and others to:-


- Express oneself, without being judged.

- Understand why we/they feel in emotional turmoil.

- Express feelings and experiences through various creative arts      activities.

- Undergo a healing process.

- Move forward to positive life experiences.


You may be surprised how refreshing, enlightening and enhancing this course is.  Take this opportunity to think out of the box, and become open to a new and powerful journey that should change your life for the better personally and professionally.
