Descendants of Holocaust survivors are known to have an altered stress hormone profile due to the transmission of trauma. The altered stress profile puts this population at a higher risk for developing stress related diseases. Studies have shown that even during traumatic events, using the creative process of art making can not only be transformative but also healing (Leclerc, 2011), suggesting that art can be used as a coping mechanism when confronted with stress. This research explored a method of stress reduction in third generation descendants of Holocaust survivors by acknowledging the pain and suffering their ancestors experienced to help descendants lead a more meaningful existence. The methodology included components of both art therapy and ancestral healing to perform an ancestral collage process. Stress was measured pre- and post-test with the Perceived Stress Scale to determine if a reduction in stress occurred. The results indicated that there was a reduction of stress when descendants of Holocaust survivors partook in an ancestral collage experience. This study showed that utilizing ancestral collaging could potentially be used as a coping mechanism for descendants of Holocaust survivors when attempting to reduce the negative symptoms of stress. However, this study implies that further work on descendants of Holocaust survivors is needed, especially in regards to stress and coping with stress.
