The Art of Seeing
Method
ArtMed inSight trains perception for insight. Better perceptual skills help medical personnel, mental health practitioners, and all growth-seeking professionals enhance their decision-making, communication and creative problem-solving skills.
The Art of Seeing Method
for Wellbeing and Stress Reduction
ArtMed inSight also trains perception for increased wellbeing and stress reduction. We offer preparatory trainings for groups headed to high-stress environments as well as workshops for teams and individuals, who want to heighten their wellbeing and better manage the stress in their lives.
“Fantastic course. Informative and reformative”
ArtMed inSight’s programs have been the subject of research by both Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons and NYU Grossman School of Medicine. Such studies have demonstrated marked gains in perceptual skills, which resulted in increased in reflection, observation, self-awareness, creativity, and stress reduction for the individuals who participated in its programs.
Training Perception Through Art
Our work uses structured engagement with artworks as a way to train perception for insight. Through guided looking, description, and discussion as well as hands-on art, writing, and observational exercises, we slow down visual experience and examine in real time how meaning is formed in what is seen.
Perception is not passive. It is structured, trained, and shaped through attention.
We help medical, mental-health and growth-seeking professionals increase their capacity for:
Observation
Communication
Problem-Solving
Wellbeing/Stress Reduction
