that's great skys! i remember i felt so stupid the first time i did one, just drew dumb little circles in the sand cuz i was afraid to let go & just see what happened. but it's so true what you said, how you can tap into feelings you didn't even know were there. Or, to get a better perspective on crud you know you're feeling - my t told me this quote by Jung "Often the hands know how to solve a riddle with which the intellect has wrestled in vain."

now i find myself at times practically dancing between the shelves and the sand tray like a giddy little girl. my t has said that she sometimes 'plays in the sand' as i call it between appointments. i'd love to see one of hers, i think it would be interesting, i've never seen one done by anyone but me. never heard of sand play therapy til this t.
