Here's how a typical scenario might go:
Emma slouched in her lounge, staring blankly into space. She ignored the text messages coming through; she was in avoidance mode.
She had been avoiding her friends, skipping gym classes, and spending far too much time scrolling through social media, comparing herself to strangers.
She had recently gained weight, and it felt like her world was falling apart.
But deep down, Emma knew it wasn’t just about the weight—it was something bigger.
At work earlier that week, her manager had made an offhand comment about her appearance during a team meeting. Though he hadn’t meant it maliciously, it hit Emma like a ton of bricks.
She felt humiliated, ashamed, and overwhelmed by emotions she couldn’t quite place. It was the kind of comment she should have shrugged off, but instead, it sent her spiralling.
So, she began isolating herself, unsure why she felt so broken. Why was she so sensitive? Why couldn’t she just move on?
That evening, while scrolling online, for the millionth time, Emma came across an article about art therapy. Curious and desperate for relief, she decided to give it a try.
Emma grabbed a few sheets of paper, fished through her desk drawer and found some coloured pencils and crayons. She didn’t know what to expect but decided to trust the process.
The prompt she chose was simple: “Draw how you feel.”
At first, Emma froze, unsure of where to start. But as she began to move the crayon across the page, something shifted. She allowed her hand to move instinctively, letting her emotions guide her.
Here’s what Emma created and a breakdown of meanings:
Colours: She began with heavy, dark strokes of red and black colours that reflected her anger, shame, and heaviness. She noticed her grip on the crayon was tight, her strokes chaotic, also tapping into her expressions of anger.
Placement: The dark colours dominated the centre of the page, representing how overwhelming these emotions felt, like they were the core of her being.
Shapes and Symbols: After the red and black, she added jagged lines shooting outward, almost like cracks. To the side, she drew a small blue circle, which she described as herself—alone, vulnerable, and disconnected.
Size: The cracks grew larger and more chaotic, while the blue circle remained small, almost hidden in the corner.
When she stepped back and looked at her drawing, Emma felt an unexpected wave of sadness but also clarity. The chaotic centre, the small circle—realising her emotions had taken over, leaving her feeling small and invisible.
But Emma didn’t stop there. She picked up her crayons again and added to her drawing:
She surrounded the blue circle with soft, flowing lines of green and yellow, symbolising comfort, safety, and hope.
She used pink and orange to add flowers and spirals, representing growth and resilience.
Finally, she drew the cracks mending and transforming into branches of a tree—strong and grounded.
As Emma reflected on her drawing, memories of her teenage years began to surface.
At 16, Emma had been publicly ridiculed by a teacher in front of her classmates during a school event.
She had laughed it off at the time, but the humiliation stuck with her. Now, as an adult, her manager’s comment triggered that same sense of inadequacy and shame.
Through her art, Emma began to see the connection between her past and her present.
The cracks on the page mirrored the way she felt fractured inside, and the small blue circle reminded her of the vulnerable girl she had once been.
To deepen her reflection, Emma pulled out her journal. She wrote about the emotions her artwork stirred up, the memories it brought back, and how she could begin to care for herself in the present.
Journaling allowed her to explore her feelings more fully and set intentions for healing moving forward.
By dedicating time to create and reflect—both through art and journaling—Emma was able to connect the dots between her emotions, her somatic experiences, and her past.
These practices gave her a safe space to process her pain and rewrite the narrative of her inner self.
Through her drawing and journaling, Emma realised that her self-worth wasn’t tied to anyone’s opinion of her—not her manager’s, not her teacher’s, not even her negative self-talk.
She also recognised the importance of nurturing herself, symbolised by the growing branches and surrounding colours of hope.
Emma’s story illustrates the transformative power of art therapy and journaling. It’s not about creating something “beautiful” or “perfect”; it’s about expressing emotions in a raw, authentic way and finding meaning in the process
I understand that trying something new can feel intimidating or even overwhelming. Maybe you’re thinking:
“I’m not creative—I can barely draw a stick figure!”
“Will this really help me, or will it just feel like another self-help book?”
“I don’t have the time or energy for this right now.”
Let's put your worries at ease:

Why I Created From Heart to Canvas
Hi, I’m Starlah Rose—and if you’ve found yourself here, chances are you’re craving a deeper connection with yourself, a way to untangle emotions, or simply a creative space to breathe.
You’re not alone.
After years working as a Registered Nurse and returning from a life-changing year in the Himalayas, motherhood cracked open a healing journey I didn’t expect. Living with complex PTSD pushed me to find new ways to cope—and art became my lifeline.
Through colour, shape, and messy self-expression, I found clarity. No perfection, just presence.
That journey led me to become a certified art therapy practitioner—and to create From Heart to Canvas, a workbook designed to help you pause, reflect, and heal through mindful creativity.
