元旦期間，小朋友有好一陣子獨坐桌旁，全神貫注，剪剪折折，忙著她的活。爸爸買的竹板刮畫也一口氣畫了好幾張。

真羨慕這股投入的勁……

減壓新發(fā)現(xiàn)：藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作可以輕松減壓? http://www.sohu.com/a/221070433_99895985

無論你是像梵·高那樣造詣深厚，還是只會畫火柴人，不管你畫技如何，藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作都能降低身體里的壓力激素。

德雷塞爾大學(xué)一項新研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，無論是藝術(shù)家梵高，還是簡筆畫者，藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作都可以顯著減少他們體內(nèi)與壓力相關(guān)的激素水平。

創(chuàng)造性藝術(shù)療法助理教授古里賈·卡曼:“這并不奇怪，因為這就是藝術(shù)療法的核心理念：每個人都是充滿創(chuàng)造力的，當(dāng)在支持性的環(huán)境中，都可以在視覺藝術(shù)中表達自己。即便如此，我確實認為也許那些有過創(chuàng)作經(jīng)驗的收效會更好?！?/p>

這項研究結(jié)果發(fā)表在《藝術(shù)療法》雜志上，標(biāo)題為“藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作后參與者皮質(zhì)醇水平的減少與反饋?！薄吧飿?biāo)記（指標(biāo)）”是生物學(xué)指標(biāo)(如激素)，可以用來測量身體的狀況，如壓力。皮質(zhì)醇就是一種這樣的激素。皮質(zhì)醇水平越高,承受的壓力也就越大。

“It was surprising, and it also wasn’t,” Kaimalexplained to Drexel Now. “It wasn’t surprising because that’s the core idea in art therapy: Everyone is creative and can be expressive in the visual arts when working in a supportive setting. That said, I did expect that perhaps the effects would be stronger for those with prior experience.”
