(3) Experience the immersive process of fabric dyeing, fostering a flow from left-brain thinking to right-brain creativity, nourishing both mind and body. 2. Outcome Evaluation: (1) From imagining designs to tying, coloring, and washing the fabric, participants exhibited diverse reactions—some felt anxious, some fully enjoyed the process, and others embraced bold experimentation. Ultimately, the unpredictable results taught them self-acceptance. (2) The process, while unpredictable in outcome, sparked unlimited creativity, bringing unexpected surprises to participants and highlighting each person’s uniqueness. (3) Through this artistic activity, participants were guided to return to the present moment, learning to balance themselves between control and chaos.
