Rochele Royster

Art and Healing

2000, This workshop introduced educators and students to the healing properties in art. Rochele aided participants in creating visual imagery through their medium of choice. Workshop participants became familiar with guided imagery and meditation and were given ways to use these tools to reduce stress, emotional turmoil and physical ailments. Workshop was facilitated at Virginia State University to a group of educators and graduate students. Rochele presented this workshop along with her thesis and is loosely based on the book Art and Healing: Using Expressive Art to Heal Your Body, Mind, and Soul by Barbara Ganim
