In this video I will show you an art therapy exercise which you can do at home with only crayons and paper. Through drawing and writing, we will explore emotional needs: what they are and how to meet them.

Materials I used:
Oil pastels: https://amzn.to/3YryNLm
Paper: https://amzn.to/3A9l7e8

Here are the example questions you can use in the writing exercise:

Part 1
What is your name?
Where have you come from?
Why have you come here?
What have you come to tell me?
Is there anything important I should know about you?

Part 2
What do you need?
What do you want?
What would make you feel happier?
What don’t you want?
Do you feel like you need to give up something to get what you want?
How might you go about meeting that need?
Is there a part of you where this need feels met?
