“I also witnessed first-hand how effective art therapy can be when a loved one received various treatments for anxiety and depression. Art therapy helped them to relax, develop more trusting relationships with their therapists, and become immersed in a joyful creative process in the midst of such a difficult personal struggle. “

Meditation has many, many benefits.

And a big one that we focus on here at Compassionate Counseling St. Louis is stress reduction.

When meditation is used as a relaxation tool, we want to focus on our physical clues that our body is relaxed.

This warm light guided meditation is great for anxious kids and overwhelmed adults.

And like many meditations, it can apply to anyone who is really noticing a lot of stress being held in their body.
