193: Creating an Art Certification Program for Art Journal Techniques with Rakefet Hadar

Journaling is well known for reducing stress and anxiety while allowing you to process emotions and go deeper into self-discovery. Art therapy also has very similar effects and can boost your confidence while allowing you to express yourself.  When you combine art therapy into a form of journaling, something magical is created that can really lead to transformation and healing. For many people, art journaling can be a gift that allows you to connect with your inner child. 

Rakefet Hadar is an art therapist, author, mentor, and facilitator that not only guides people, but also teaches others how to find their version of joy through healing their wounds. She joins Miriam in this special episode to explain and inspire you to create your own Soul Pages.

“Try to connect to your inner child, because I think that's like the most empowering part of you, [...] and joyful parts of you can be activated if you connect to your inner child.” -Rakefet Hadar 

Rakefet’s journey is about connection and exploration with yourself. It’s not necessarily about being a professional artist. It’s about transformation and healing through the essence of what connects to your soul. 

“Connect to those parts that help you thrive and dream and achieve your goals.” -Rakefet Hadar
