Group art-therapy lessons were organized last month in the residential care facility for senior citizens and people with disabilities in Cheremshany municipal district.

Drawing on points is an interesting method of work that has found wide application among the elderly. After retirement, the habitual life of an elderly person changes, a sufficient amount of free time appears. If there is nothing to fill it with, negative emotions are born in a person, he begins to think about illnesses, adversities, and life troubles. Art therapy allows older people to avoid “life without a goal” and keep a good mood while continuing to enjoy life, bringing new impressions and small joys to life.
