Life is
hard, especially it is when crisis beat everyone. And there are situation when
every single person needs just psychological help. Stresses and personal
problems are emotionally heavy enough to bail up everyone, though it is not worth
losing hope since there is way from any depressive situation. Psychological
trauma is possible to heal with the adequate treatment. One of the effective approaches
to restore the mental balance and rehabilitation with the posttraumatic
syndrome is sand play therapy. Sand is known to calm and soothe emotions and
nerves, and bring peace to heart. So, what are the ways to make an angry person
cam with the help of sand?
Sand play
and sand works of art interact with the mind area which are responsible for fancy,
intellectual development and they help to unite the inner and outer world
humans live in. Uniting fine motoric movements with games, a person is allowed
to come to emotional balance and peace with the world.
The sandbox
of the standard size and blue color is used for sand play therapy
sessions,
along with sand and finer figures and stones. Why does the blue color
matter for the sandbox? The point is that blue color is the color of the
mental balance, relation with space and color of healing. Blue color
contemplation is recommended for persons suffering from emotional
misbalance
and chronic diseases.
So, what is
the peculiarity of psyche healing based on the sand play therapy? Sand is very plastic
material and touch with sand creates the wish to build and form some shapes and
images. During the process of play with the sand, the unconscious process of delivery
of stress and fair into the reality gradually becomes conscious. In most cases a
person realizes that hidden alarm is much worse than problems and fairs you are
aware about. The same as there are few shadows with the bright light, all the
anxieties and difficulties seem plain and miser when they are realized.
The most
complicated cases are when you work with consequences of psychic trauma. The ego
mainly longs to boycott the conflict situations which they are not possible to
solve. In these cases the sand play therapy is the best to perform with the psycho
analysis, hypnosis or desensitization technique which is the technique of imitation
of eye movements of sleeping man.
The person who
practices the sand play therapy models abstract sculptures and, thus,
looks for
the individual balance point in the world. The others perform as
creators. This isimportant since most people need to feel that lots in
this world depend on them to getself-confident. They may find themselves
fancying in the wooden
sandbox, the magic sequences of awareness of being the creator spreads
to other
spheres of the life activity.
Sand play
therapy is the best to perform with the qualified psychologist who is skilled
enough to accentuate the attention to details or give a hint about the tendency
of the activity.
When you touch
the cold and silky sand thinking of something pleasant or something that is
deep inside you or playing a complex game managing object with particular
features, it is fascinating. Afterwards, all created can be ruined to feel you
the god of disruption. This is just game, the same as most things in this life.
Destroying
the created structures, a person empties the place in the sandbox and, thus, he
clears the areas in his inner world and gets ready for the coming changes. The
person learns to see the harmony and beauty in all life situations, including
diseases, death and loss.
Sand play
therapy is able to give sincere harmony and peace and self-confidence to the
personality.
When a
person learns to create with symbols sitting in the sandbox, the deeper levels
of the psyche are touched checked by the rational mind. Sand play therapy is
relief from the chance to dredge up memories to be required in the
cognitive-based works.
