Demystifying Art and Music Therapy: Beyond Creativity

Art therapy isn’t an art class. Music therapy isn’t a jam session

Let’s clear something up once and for all.

Not everything that feels therapeutic is actually therapy.

A coloring book can be relaxing. Listening to music can shift your mood. A “sip and paint” night can be a great way to unwind.

But none of these are art therapy or music therapy.

So in Episode 3 of Creativity Embodied, we’re setting the record straight.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ The key differences between therapeutic activities and actual therapy
✅ What real art therapy and music therapy involve (hint: it’s not just about making something pretty or playing a song)
✅ The common myths that stop people from trying creative therapies—and why they’re wrong
✅ Why you don’t need to be “artistic” or “musical” to benefit from these therapies

Because here’s the thing: art therapy isn’t an art class. Music therapy isn’t a jam session.

They’re both powerful, research-backed ways to process emotions, tap into your subconscious, and heal in ways that words alone can’t.

Hit play, and let’s get creative together!
