YogArt Therapy methodology used by the foundation, is being developed and used in Spain for the last 6 years by Nuria Torralbo Garcia. The experience gained during her sessions reaffirms the benefits of using both techniques combined.

Art Therapy and Therapeutic Yoga for prevention and healing of mental disorders.

Yoga and art are based on experience rather than intellectual basis. The mind can convince us of many things, but our body and our creative intuition know the truth. We found that emotions accumulate creating blockages in the body, therefore, by doing certain specific techniques of classical yoga, a person can access deep emotions, which can be channeled through a process of artistic creation, this being a means deep and clear expression of being. These experiential tools are both protective and healing, and are based on meeting the needs of the individual to help them develop their strengths and function better in life.

Art therapy

Art Therapy is used to cover areas in which verbal therapy is not enough, being equally effective to alleviate school failure, attention disorders or other series of difficulties that many children, young people and elders have today. Much of Waldorf pedagogy is based on similar foundations, in which art as a pedagogical method brings very positive results.
