The Creative Wellness Script, a new digital wellness platform aimed at improving the mental health of children and teens, has officially launched with its debut course: Soccer Shine.
Founded by artist, professional patient, and health advocate Shanna Israel, ARTFUN RX offers an innovative, hands-on approach to mental wellness, empowering the youth to manage stress, reframe negative thoughts, and build lasting coping skills while engaging with their favorite hobbies and pop-culture themes – starting with sports.
The platform incorporates evidence-based techniques highlighting neuroplasticity designed to retrain the brain’s emotional responses and promote long-term physical and mental well-being that are invaluable options for the general public.
“After years of misdiagnosis, confusion, and trauma, I discovered that art and retraining my brain’s nueral pathways could help regulate my nervous system and empower me – I finally had some control over my health,” Ms. Israel said. “ARTFUN RX is about sharing these life changing tools with the next generation—giving kids a fun, simple and affordable ways to empower themselves with their emotional and mental wellness.”
ARTFUN RX is the first platform of its kind to combine art, brain science, sports-based themes and somatic wellness techniques into an immersive experience for youth ages 6 to 18. The curriculum uses evidence-based methods rooted in neuroplasticity and neuroaesthetics to support brain development and emotional regulation.
