Drawings are everywhere. From being daubed on ancient cave walls they can now be created digitally. Drawing is low-cost, low-tech, and flexible yet many of us have laid aside basic mark-making in childhood, thereby losing a rich and varied way to tell our stories. In this book, the research evidence demonstrates the substantial value of drawing for health, healthcare and improved wellbeing. Drawings record observations, create visual notes, describe important stories, improve stress and anxiety symptoms, express feelings, and explain complexities. The drawing activities, designed from two decades of facilitation, will help you engage with drawing. Drawing benefits both our mental and physical health and can be readily integrated into health and wellbeing contexts. The activities can be personalised to clients, parents, carers and professionals. This valuable book encourages readers to enjoy mark-making once again and leverage thinking through drawing as a powerful life skill that enriches health and wellbeing. Book jacket.
