Activity Therapy
What is Activity Therapy?
Art Activity Therapy
Painting, sculpting and other forms of art boost self-expression and can often be very relaxing. Additionally, research shows that art can be important in easing the symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD and ADHD, which often co-occur with substance use disorder.
Journaling
Journaling allows individuals to put their thoughts on to paper. This helps them to better understand and process emotions or experiences they may be having. In particular journaling is a great way to put frustrations into perspective. What originally seemed like a major problem, can sometimes be nothing more than a minor annoyance. Journaling can be a very useful tool in early recovery for reducing stress.
Music
Music therapy offers a wide variety of benefits, for those in early recovery. According to The American Music Therapy Association, some of the benefits are stress relief, easing pain, self-expression, improved memory, and physical improvement. Music and emotion often go hand-in-hand, so it makes sense that musical therapy proves to be incredibly healing for so many. We also offer music groups on a wide array of topics.
Movement Activity Therapy
At Royal Life Centers, we believe in the power of movement, which is why we offer mind-and body balancing activities like yoga. Yoga is a great way to incorporate mindfulness and meditation into your daily routine. In fact, it has been found to relieve stress, increase self-reflection and self-awareness, promote a healthier lifestyle, and foster emotional healing.
