I hope you enjoy this chapter as much as I enjoyed bringing it to life. Thank you so much for your support—every single like, comment, or share gives me the strength to keep going! ❤️

"The Canvas of Recovery: Visual Arts Therapy Market Innovations (2024-2033)"

Visual arts therapy is emerging as a transformative tool in mental health treatment, harnessing the expressive power of art to foster healing and self-discovery. By allowing individuals to explore their emotions through painting, drawing, and other creative mediums, this therapy encourages personal expression and reflection, helping to reduce anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms. As awareness grows about the profound connection between creativity and mental well-being, visual arts therapy is carving out a vital space in holistic healthcare, empowering individuals to express themselves and find solace in the creative process.

The Journey Begins…

Hi everyone! I’m C, and today I want to share something deeply personal with you—a project that reflects my journey to understand and, hopefully, love myself. I’m a huge fan of Dungeons & Dragons, and during one of the toughest times in my life, I found solace in an RPG game, Baldur’s Gate 3. But this journey isn’t just about playing a game; it’s about using it as a tool for self-reflection. What if a game could help us better understand ourselves? I’m not saying this is a quick fix or a substitute for real therapy, but it’s become my way of exploring the parts of myself that feel hard to reach in everyday life. We often shape who we are through interactions with others, but what happens when you're alone? Can interactions with fictional characters—who possess very real traits—help us reflect on ourselves when we don't have friends or someone close by? One important thing to note is that I’ve never drawn before in my life. I started learning how to draw just to begin (and hopefully finish) this project. I’ve seen so many talented artists create amazing BG3 comics and use comics as a way to cope, so I thought, why not do the same? So please be patient with me, and forgive any inconsistencies as I’m still learning. If I could, I’d pay one of the fantastic artists out there, but unfortunately, that’s not possible right now. Another important detail about me is that I have aphantasia—I can’t imagine mental images. When I close my eyes, there’s no escape into an imagined world. That’s why I’m using comics to visualize this journey; it’s the most effective way for me to process and truly see myself in action. I need to witness my character, “C,” navigating her way through challenges. Maybe if someone can appreciate her, I can start to understand and appreciate myself too.

I also hope to add it to AO3 soon!

21 Days of Determination & Discipline started yesterday. I’ve said 2020 gave me the vision. 2021 is refining my focus. 2022 is about execution. This means it’s time to clean up & develop some habits. I’ve been on a journey to find “self love” for the past couple years. I thought it was psychobabble until I realized how badly I’ve treated myself. I’ve been slowly finding my way there by taking time to focus on getting familiar with he person I’ve been avoiding nearly my whole life. Myself. I’ve removed myself from unhealthy surroundings, gotten to REALLY know myself (largely through arting) & found my way to what I’ve heard is one of the doorways to self love. Discipline. I’m determined to develop habits that will help me continue learning to care for myself. I’ve read that it takes 21 days to make or break a habit. My goal is to make / break 3 (because 3 is the magic number). 1. Establishing & maintaining a morning routine. I’ve had to get myself up and out for thousands of days but that was as a participant in the rat race. Now I’m creating a routine that will make me a healthier, happier human. My routine includes reading, drinking water, tea, yoga, a workout and quality time w Zen. 2. Establishing routines, rules, boundaries & limits for work. This will help me spend more time with myself so that I can care for myself mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually. As a result, I imagine, I’ll become more open to repairing a few damaged relationships & engaging more socially. 3. Eat better. This means no processed foods. I eat plant based but we’ve been slipping in vegan, gluten free sweets and eating outside food that’s not as healthy as the food we prepare at home. I’ll update socials depending on how much “work time” I have left each day. I’ve put social media in my work category because I’m setting & honoring limits on tech time. That said, have a great night. Day 2’s been great outside of this stuffy head & runny nose. I need rest. Pitchfork’s Peace tomorrow. Be YOU. Be well.

"GUIDANCE" Is it me....or is there something emotional about this card? I don't know what it is..maybe the look in her eyes..or the position of her hands...maybe the birds flying freely in the distant.
