What a treasure of a collection of #mobileEEG papers in the field - highly recommended. Congrats @MathKyle et al. for this massive overview.

Juliet King, PhD, ATR-BC, LPC, LMHC is at the Cape Cod Institute this week teaching: Arts & the Brain: Evidence-Based Therapeutic Arts Interventions for Optimal Health & Well-Being. Here participants are painting how they see the world & what they see as truths. @tertiaryprocess

5-year full PhD position at the Berlin Mobile Brain/Body Imaging Labs! (Please distribute in your network). We are looking for a highly motivated candidate to work in the field of Neurourbanism using multimodal psychophysiological measurements in stationary and mobile protocols.

I had the pleasure of sharing my experience developing art therapy for NHS HCW burnout and psychosocial distress with #artstherapists @AWPNHS last week. Thank you for the invitation, warm reception & interest in the relationship between practice, service development & research

Excited to partner with @arttherapyproj to introduce outpatient #ArtTherapy for older adults at @WCMGeriPal @nyphospital. Currently in a research phase (stay tuned for our results!) #hapc #geriatrics

In our clinical research team’s latest conceptual review, they report on a neurophysiological rationale for #ArtTherapy as a therapeutic approach for individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Learn more: frontiersin.org/articles/10.… #MilitaryMedicine #ArtsInHealth

Excited to announce the release of 'Art Therapy and the Neuroscience of Trauma, 2nd Edition' 📷📷! Dive deeper into how art therapy intersects with neuroscience to heal trauma. #ArtTherapy #Neuroscience #TraumaRecovery amazon.com/Art-Therapy-Neuro…

Fabulous paper! Explains the active mechanisms of the creative arts therapies from a neuroscience perspective in such an insightful way 🙌🏼

Thank you @kwokytalky for being there! You are an inspiration for our collaborations!!!

Thank you Dr. Juliet King @tertiaryprocess for presenting at @WCMPsychiatry Grand Rounds! Art therapists, medical clinicians, and neuroscientists have so much to learn from each other, and Dr. King has assembled so much of the shared language we need. #ArtTherapy #MedEd #MedHum

A new, large-sample study finds little support for a link between mind-wandering and creative thinking. This follows several other studies finding mixed evidence that mind-wandering supports creativity. The Discussion offers much food for thought, including a call for more precise and testable theories. It also lists 7 specific hypotheses to test for any link between mind-wandering and creativity in future work: "If the psychology of creativity is to make progress on this question, beyond collecting dozens of studies that use different methods and produce conflicting findings, the field must develop theories that specify the hypothesized nature of the association and that guide further empirical investigations. We list several possibilities below (only some of which are mutually exclusive), but creativity theorists could (and should) probably develop more: Hypothesis 1: Mind-wandering is a sign, symptom, or result of creativity, not a cause. Hypothesis 2: Mind-wandering during development facilitates the subsequent development of creative thinking and behavior, but it doesn't concurrently affect adult creativity. Hypothesis 3: Suitably off-task mind-wandering following a problem-solving impasse can create a mental context change that keeps prior dead-ends at bay and thereby facilitates more novel thinking. Hypothesis 4: Unconstrained mind-wandering, during the creative process or following an impasse, provides mental access to more remote and novel ideas than directed, linear thinking. Hypothesis 5: Fantastical mind-wandering that is divorced from realistic concerns, during the creative process or after an impasse, activates similarly novel solutions to creative problems. Hypothesis 6: Unconstrained or fantastical mind-wandering may suggest to creators that purposefully thinking in these ways may benefit progress on their creative projects. Hypothesis 7: Unconstrained or fantastical mind-wandering provides access to remote, novel ideas, but they are only beneficial if there is sufficient metaconsciousness to notice and harness those ideas before they are forgotten."

In 2005, a nursing home in the US got a six-month-old kitten named Oscar as a therapy cat. The staff soon noticed something unusual about him. Oscar often liked to be by himself, but sometimes he would go and lie next to one of the residents. Strangely, the resident he chose would often pass away within a few hours. At first, the workers didn't think it was important, but after it happened 20 times, they started to think Oscar knew when someone was going to die. So, they began to call the resident's family if they saw Oscar with them. Some people think Oscar could sense certain smells from dying cells, and that's why he went to comfort residents who were alone. There was even a time when the staff thought one resident was going to die, but Oscar stayed with a different, healthier-looking person, who then died first. Oscar lived until 2022 and was right about more than 100 deaths during his life.

Yesterday, at the @WhiteHouse @NEAarts Summit, the @Surgeon_General said it best, “The arts are medicine. The arts are a form of healing, & that's why they deserve the investment of our country... They have to be part of how we recover post-pandemic."
