Creative embodiment education is about using your innate creativity through the arts to access a deeper sense of embodiment. When we are embodied, we move beyond simply existing in our physical form—we become more integrated, aligned, and present in our mind-body-spirit. This alignment has profound ripple effects on our well-being, influencing everything from emotional resilience to intuitive awareness.

Yet, in our culture, art is often seen as a luxury—something to indulge in only if we have extra time or resources.
Art education is typically approached as a way to master a skill—whether it’s oil painting, woodworking, or ceramics. And while learning a craft is a deeply fulfilling practice, the arts hold so much more potential than just technical expertise. The creative process itself is transformative, offering us a direct path to greater self-awareness and deeper healing.
Despite this, many people hold onto the belief that they must be a certain “type” of person—a creative, artsy type—to truly benefit from the arts.
This is not true.
Creativity is innate and accessible to all. Creativity just is. It is all around us, within us and is life itself. It is not about the development of talent or even an identity. You can use the arts as a portal to expanded consciousness, healing, and self-connection.
In addition to offering therapeutic services, I provide Creative Embodiment Education, designed to remind you of your own inner pharmacy—a vast well of healing and insight that you can access through creative expression. This moves beyond traditional art education - complimenting the skill building by offering you other ways to be, see, and connect to yourself.
Accessing Creative Embodiment:

Through my online healing art school, you gain access to resources and guidance to help you explore your creative process on your own terms. You will:
Learn what’s happening behind the scenes when you engage in art, from a somatic and psychological perspective.
Discover approaches to art-making that help you see yourself more clearly and listen to yourself more deeply.
Join a growing community of individuals using art for emotional wellness and spiritual growth.
Whether you’re painting, moving, writing, or shaping clay, engaging in the arts is a way to connect with yourself, regulate your nervous system, and explore new layers of awareness. When you give yourself permission to create, you are also giving yourself permission to heal.
Join me at Create Art & Wellness' healing art school and discover the transformative potential of the arts in your life.
Warmly, Emily
