The new report goes into detail on how art can help with memory activity and help people with dementia and Alzheimer’s enhance their awareness and retain memories.

Readers will see that although studies that look into how art can help the brain are limited, the research available suggests that symptoms that are linked with dementia such as anxiety, agitation and depression can be eased through artistic engagement.

This artistic engagement has been shown to elevate hope, boost cognitive function and help dementia and Alzheimer’s sufferers with memory retention.

People suffering from dementia are experiencing a frightening loss of ability to negotiate new information and stimuli of everything including their own thoughts, their circumstance and surroundings, which can lead to other problems such as depression. This can lead to restlessness and symptoms such as moving around unnecessarily, pacing and wandering.

Readers will discover that studies have also shown that in the early stages of dementia, art can ease common symptoms as well as helping to boost general mood and self-esteem.

Art does this through stimulating the body’s senses which can also trigger memories that may otherwise have been forgotten. In addition to this, patients suffering from dementia and Alzheimer’s can often not communicate verbally, so art can be used as a form of communication which could otherwise have been impossible.

Art can have a massive amount of benefits to people suffering from dementia and Alzheimer’s, and the use of painting, drawing, dancing and even just music and poetry can have great benefits such as helping patients express themselves.
