Art therapy - healing through art - is a way of healing through beauty and harmony, harmony between Heaven and Earth, between the world of matter and the world of spirit. It is precisely this harmony that art strives for, and if such harmony is manifested in a work of art, be it a painting, a symphony, a sculpture, a poem..., then it elevates and purifies the soul and has a healing effect on the body. But for real recovery it is necessary not only to experience harmony, but to take a real part in its creation, to unite one's will with it, to allow it to enter into the experiences of the soul and the processes of the body

This balances the movements of the soul and harmonizes the processes of the body. This is the process of healing - healing with Beauty
