12 - The Canadien Champion, Friday, Octaber 1, 19M Art therapy helps bring pent up feelings to surface 7 - f rom DOING on page 10 That's wbere ah. that earlier hand- holding cornes in. "We are aIl supportive," said Ms Chamberlain. "If someone needs a bug, if someone needs to, talk - wbat- ever unfolds." That is also ber pbilosopby of teacb- ing. Heeding ber own advice to "flot pusb against the river," Ms Chamberain bas been known to tbrow away ber garne plan if it doesn't fit witis tise vibe she gets froan the class on any given nigbt. Being able to read that vibe comes courtesy of years spent exploring beal- ing arts such as yoga, tai chi and heal- ing toucb. Teachinga from a medicine man during a stint on an Indian reservation have belped sharpen ber intuition. And sise applies her knowledge of colour theory - or isow hues affect emotion - to ber classes. After tbe circle, Ms Chamberlain may take the group tbrough visualiza- tion exercises, asking thean to follow her on an imaginary walk through a forest. Or she may tum on the tunes, and encourage thern toi sway to tise music. The point is to bring pent up feel- ings to the surface. When those feelings are t«atisrnitteCt onto paper or canvas, the resuits can be powerfisl. And emotion is sometbing Ms Chamberlain knows a bit about. 111 had a lot of things hap1pen in rny life growing up," sise said. 'I had a lot of traumatic tisings." TMe moast recent blow was the deatb of an older sister after a long battle *witb cancer. For weeks afterward, Ms Chamberlain found herseif unable to do soi much as lift a paintbrusb. "I was thinking 'l'an supposed to be calm, pma supposed to be dealing with this,"' she said. "But then I tbought, Ilo. tmi not. Fin humnan, too Wbcn shc was finally able to paint again, the resuit was a piece that al but bowled witb fury. But it belped release a littie of the pain, too. Today, Ms Chamberlain is stili struggling witb her sister's deatb. But she is also out there, doing ber damnedest to get better. "You are allowed a certain amount of time, get il out. Then get out and help someone," ase said of ber strate- gy. And, simple as it sounds, making a conscious effort toi look et tise bîighter aide of things belps. Thiat ineans Ietting go ot ncgativc emotions, replacing them with posi- tive ones. In an art therapy class, painting can heip others achieve that. III want to help thean get to the point of getting it out before they get sick or go crazy," she said. Ms Cbamberlain's classes run from 8 to 9:30 p.m. The cost is $10 per ses- sion, and participants are asked to bring their own supplies.. Supplies are low-cost and basic, and some are always on site for those who arrive empty-banded. For more information, call Naturally Be Wellness Centre et 854-1654.
