Leaning into creative activities is a proven way to boost our mental wellbeing. Immersing ourselves in activities like drawing, painting, or other creative pursuits enables us to enter a meditative and focused state which calms our heart rate.
How about bringing in some calm through art therapy?
We invite you to join Vimala MV, an Art Therapist, Mental Health Advocate, and Caregiver Coach, in this in-person session in Bangalore where she helps you explore your inner world through art.
Art therapy feels like a new language you’ve learned to connect with yourself. It’s like self-talk,” says Vimala.
What to expect in this session:
Art can permeate the very deepest part of us, where no words exist.
This session invites you to have a conversation with yourself through art by visualizing with intent. You will be provided with crayons and sheets of paper. Explore storytelling through a new language of colors and shapes that enriches the process of experiencing emotions in a safe space.
Untangle your experiences and create unique and meaningful art. Art therapy allows you to practice self-care, grow and heal.
What should I bring to the event?
Carry an object from home you connect with. Example: an eraser, keys, a comb, a tennis ball, etc.

There was a little bit of origami, a whole lot of colours, and a kaleidoscope feelings—joy, pride, reflection, hope, and optimism. I'm so grateful to Smitha and Swati for organising this, and of course to Vimala for conducting it beautifully.

I attended an Art Therapy Session organized by MyndStories, which helped me realize how easy it was to express my inner turmoil through art. Thank you, Smitha and Swati, for encouraging me to attend this and helping me feel rejuvenated by the end of the session
