Painting Event

Studies have shown that most people who try art as a form of therapy or stress relief have experienced significant reductions in their cortisol levels when doing so. Painting allows for emotional release because it stimulates the creative side of your mind while focusing your attention in one place, which can lower anxiety. In this way, the creative outlet improves your mental health significantly. Join the Health Ed team in taking advantage of the benefits of art therapy and taking a break to paint and connect with likeminded students.
