Toolbox of Treatments: BMA + X-Arts

Leave a Comment

BodyMind exercise at JENGA IV, Nairobi, 2017

BMC training workshops impart useful skills for MHPSS practitioners, such as the The BodyMind Approach to Well-Being and the use of Play Therapy, SandPlay, Guided Imagery in Music, Authentic Movement and more. BMA + X-Arts supports the notion of an integrated approach to mental health and well-being that takes the whole body/mind system of the individual into consideration. When we expressive ourselves with body and mind (including through dance, movement, drawing, painting, sculpture, dreamwork, writing, poetry…) we can find psychic balance and learn how to regulate our emotions for a more holistic and grounded sense of well-being. Click here for more info on the BMA + X-Arts.

Train with us

Before being part of JENGA, my understanding of ‘creative arts’ in psychotherapy was limited. I was in awe to learn how to effectively use creative arts, dream analysis and yoga and this has brought a sense of creativity and interest in my profession.”

– Vivian Kudda, Clinical Psychologist and Team Leader MHPSS program in Kyaka II, American Refugee Committee

Inspiring training with an excellent team— The JENGA V Workshop helped me to see the connection between art, creativity and mental health. I highly recommend this course!”

– Fiann Paul, Training Candidate, CG Jung Institute, Zurich, Artist, Athlete, Iceland

We look forward to welcoming you to the next BeautifulMind Workshop.
