But\u00a0what most Public Safety employees do not know about is the tremendous mental health benefits from art. That\u2019s right, art!<\/p>\n<p>If you think about it, art has no right or wrong answer, definition, or solution. Police Officers as well as Firefighters spend a lot of their time using investigative and logical thinking skills. Participating in an activity that does not involve using the same skills as you would in your career is what can<a href=\"http:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/public-safety\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/04\/art1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-749\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-749 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.spcollege.edu\/public-safety\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/04\/art1-207x197-custom.jpg\" alt=\"art1\" width=\"178\" height=\"170\" \/><\/a> make an activity relaxing.

Creating your own art piece will give you that exact same feeling which in return will increase your level of <a href=\"http:\/\/bebrainfit.com\/the-health-benefits-of-art-are-for-everyone\/\">dopamine<\/a> (a \u201cfeel good\u201d neurotransmitter in the brain) and boost your motivation, focus, and concentration levels. Another great benefit from art that Public Safety employees can greatly benefit\u00a0from is the increase of Brain Connectivity and Plasticity. Engaging in new activities such as art is when the brain creates brand new connections between brain cells. This growth process is called <a href=\"http:\/\/bebrainfit.com\/the-health-benefits-of-art-are-for-everyone\/\">brain plasticity<\/a>. While creating art your brain is stimulated by communication.
