    One Thing Hitler Can Teach Us About Art

    Michelle Baker, MA

    A Mindfulness Practice

    Having a mindfulness practice can really help us be more present and peaceful. But do we have to meditate on a cushion or are there other ways?!!

Art naturally brings you into the present moment and lets you express your inner world out and onto paper or canvas. Watch the video below to learn more about the connection between mindfulness and art. #artasmeditation #artastherap
