Abstract Article: "Case Study First Aid in Art Therapy and its liberating role in Bosnia and Herzegovina Temporary Reception Centers for Migrants and Refugees"

First Aid in Art Therapy is a therapeutic approach carried out in migrants and refugee camps from October 2019 to 2023. In an extremely challenging context for therapists and beneficiaries, Art Therapy sessions were held according to the methodology of free creative expression, with a high degree of adjustability. A non-directed work prioritizing each participant’s needs, spontaneity, and the factor of transitoriness, either of conditions or of emotions, was revealed to be the appropriate approach within a context of humanitarian crisis. In this study, the theoretical foundations of Carl Jung and Nise da Silveira[1] were used, especially with regard to the concept of Archetype, which is essential for a better understanding of the images produced in these sessions. It could be observed in the migrants and refugees’ work that certain repeated patterns appeared, for example: feminine figures and mandalas: which coincide with two strong archetypes that will be highlighted.

YOGA TEACHER

I have always had the need to look for something deeper in my life, which led me to find the practice of Yoga. What made me meet and learn from many teachers of this ancient technique and train me in Kriya Yoga and Hatha Yoga. Today, after more than 20 years of practice, I can say that yoga is part of my daily life, personally and professionally. Over time I understood that this practice is a science, the tests and the results are concrete and manifest within oneself. Live day by day, remembering and being aware that you are like a flower, part of this immense universe, but that you are also the gardener who has to water and take care of that flower, so that it can grow and radiate love.
