#319 Loving Your Life: Healing Anxiety and Trauma Through Expressive Art with Elke Scholz

In this episode, Roy sits down with Elke Scholz, a registered psychotherapist, internationally registered expressive art consultant and educator, and internationally certified EMDR therapist, to talk about anxiety, trauma, expressive art therapy, and what it actually takes to love your life. Elke shares her own journey with undiagnosed anxiety, how EMDR therapy helps the brain release the energy trapped in traumatic memories, and why slowing down and getting present in the body matters more than any technique. She speaks candidly about how expressive art can help both children and adults process grief, trauma, and bullying, and walks through her own daily gratitude and grounding practice that has kept her grounded for over twenty years.
