"Eastern cultures focused more on inner mastery and peace as the preconditions for a more peaceful world, the outer world was nothing more than a reflection of the inner world. When a person understands the importance of exploring inner self- awareness and life experiences, they truly begin to focus on the inherent value of life. In this sense, arts and crafts activities serve as a means of connection between our body and mind, the inner and outer world, the visible and invisible."
