Author Info:

Lucia Capacchione, Ph.D., A.T.R., is an art therapist, seminar leader, artist, and author. Having healed herself of a life-threatening connective tissue disorder though the development of her own creative journaling techniques, Lucia went on to write several books about creativity and healing.

She is especially well-known for her pioneering techniques that utilize the expressive power of the nondominant hand. Lucia has trained tens of thousands of people over the course of her career, and her methods are widely respected in the fields of addiction, codependency, and childhood abuse healing.

Book Info:

Lucia Capacchione has discovered that our non-dominant hand is a direct channel to that potential and, through the "other hand" exercises and experiments in this course, she will show you how to do such things as:

-Talk to your inner child.
-Aid in recovery from addictions.
-Channel the deep inner wisdom of your True Self.
-Help your body to heal.
-Heal your relationships.
-Uncover hidden artistic abilities.
-Change negative attitudes about yourself.

Through various drawing and writing exercises with your other hand, Lucia Capacchione hopes you will discover the power that lies hidden in your other hand. The exercises will help you explore and understand your thoughts and feelings on a completely different level, finding out things about yourself that have been buried or concealed for quite some time.

The basic concept of the book is that you can use your nondominant hand to write/draw/express any part of you that is repressed or not fully expressed, such as a personal fear, a passionate emotion, a part of your body, your inner wisdom, or your playfulness.

To bring out these repressed or unexpressed aspects of oneself, Lucia teaches people how to create dialogues between the dominant and nondominant hands in order to give voice to–and integrate–all aspects of the self. In so doing, greater health and well-being are gently facilitated in safe, creative ways.
