I posted the comment about art for healing a long time ago. More importantly, I lived it. When my husband's health was failing and I was his caregiving, I started doodling to relieve stress. Before I began my caregiving tasks, I doodled for 15-20 minutes. This relaxed me and prepared me for the day. When I was quarantined for testing positive for Covid (I never developed any symptoms) I continued to doodle. This led to a book about doodling to express grief. After my husband died I continued to doodle. I added watercolor to the doodles and was thrilled with the results. I turned my husband's bedroom, really a hospital room and place of sadness, into my art studio. Every wall is lined with framed doodle art. Twenty-three of my pictures are currently on exhibit. I 've given grief doodle art talks to the public health, my retirement community, and on Zoom for The Compassionate Friends, an organization for those who have suffered the loss of a child. In August I'm giving two workshops at The Compassionate Friends National Conference, "Grief Doodling: A Snapshot of Your Grief Journey" and "Affirmation Writing: A Forward Step on the Healing Path." Life is filled with surprises and one of the greatest surprises of my life is becoming a doodle artist. I am blessed.
