How a Psychiatrist Uses Knitting to Heal
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 июл 2020
- Knitting isn’t merely a pastime for Swiss psychiatrist Dominique Kaehler Schweizer. It’s a means of creative expression. Dr. Kaehler knits everything from animals to meat to baked goods to body parts-even anatomically correct hearts. And her clever, intricate work is on display in museums. The knitting psychiatrist, known as Madame Tricot in the art world, shows us how her passions for healing and knitting are interwoven.

For some people it is knitting and for others, it might be fishing, etc. It is important to have hobby and interest in something in order to keep your head clean
She’s probably one of the best surgical stitchers out there

Hello, new Justin Y.
With a beautiful flower on the end.
I used to knit in my lunch time, my mum always thought it kept me calm. I find great satisfaction completing anything handmade, crochet, knitting, embroidery or sewing.
When I was in a "girls home" a foster grandmother taught me to crochet. I never forgot and I still use the skill. Thank God for kind and generous people. I turned out productive and good.
Hey Earth ‘n, the name of the “crochet” tool means “fang” in French.
My mom would buy sweaters from second hand shops, and repurpose the wool. Epic knitter. Now I know why she was so calm.
I now understand how my mother survived my father. Thanks
My gawd... her stash! I am so envious!
Me too!🌞
. . . Im a psychology student and I love crochet... Watching this is like watching me in the future 🥰😍😍😍😍😍😍
🙂🙂🙂 She knits though. Harder to produce her pieces with knitting than with crochet
"...Makes me happy..." That is the simple, but hard to attain truth of living.
Now that’s what you call mastery 🙌🏾
" The answer is because this makes me happy. "
I wish I will be as wise as this lady as I age.
I believe you are my soul mate! During the CoVid Lockdown here in America, I started knitting my CoVid Corps: Women whose lives have been directly affected by the Pandemic!. They include medical works; mothers; teachers; hotel housekeepers; career women; Postal workers; Hotel Housekeepers; Musicians....the list goes on. It was SO much fun!
I LOVE THIS AND I LOVE HER
Wow I love crocheting and I'm getting therapy for my ptsd right now. Crocheting makes me happy. I love to create cuddly things.
Imagine you get stabbed while outside and this lady deadass pulls out a needle and yarn and just says "no problem"
Her Laugh Is A MOOD
Art is something everyone has in different forms art is just another word for relaxation
Knitting and crochet thought me patience.. now I can't live without it !
Oh my God she's my perfect psychiatrist WHY DOES SHE LIVE FAR AWAY DAMMIT
Beautiful work congratulations

It's just "knitting" for some. But it is also expressing their creativity for many.

Lovley story.

Fabulous!
Man psychology is much much different to how it used to be decades ago
It has ! However this type of therapy , arts and crafts has actually been used for quite some time .
and I think its wonderful
I love to crochet, even though she knits, she is still super inspiring!
She is an amazing artist. And she speaks beautiful French.
That’s impressive
My nana taught me how to knit as a child and as I've gotten older I really see the benefits of it. I've got something to do with my hands so that keeps me stimulated and focused proventing me from fidgeting or god forgbid hurting myself like I used to and when I'm done I get clothes and stuffed toys out of it. I definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone who can hold a pair of kneeles
Nice
It's very cathartic, & I do it for the same reasons.
A real life scarf lady!
CONTINENTAL KNITTING! YES! It's so much easier but everyone does the overcomplicated version..
I'm mostly a self-taught knitter...came from crochet and could NOT knit the other way. When I found Continental, it was a true ljghtbulb moment.💟
Rhonda Huggins I’m a self taught crochet-knitter and I was taught knitting the other way in a school club. When I showed it to my mom she said it was too complicated and showed me what she called “the normal way”. I understand what you mean- continental is so easy and flows making knitting a much faster process which is something I was used to from how quickly crochet goes.
Im self taught. Im gonna check out continental knitting on youtube now. If i like it i will switch too it
Me realizing I absolutely do this. 😳
I want her as my grandmother
is it french..?
Oui.
Matthew Jay Ah, d'accord, j'étais un peu confus si c'était français.

Is she talking about emotional trauma or a traumatic brain injury, such as a concussion?
Emotional but can be applied to physical as well in the wait and heal process
