contents A transformative approach to mental health therapy lies at the crossroads of cultural heritage and advanced technology. This paper introduces an innovative method that fuses machine learning techniques with traditional Emirati motifs, focusing on the United Arab Emirates (UAE). We utilize the Stable Diffusion XL (SDXL) model, enhanced with Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), to create culturally significant coloring templates featuring Al-Sadu weaving patterns. This novel approach leverages coloring therapy for its recognized stress-relieving benefits and embeds deep cultural resonance, making it a potent tool for therapeutic intervention and cultural preservation. Specifically targeting Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), our method demonstrates significant potential in reducing associated symptoms. Additionally, the paper delves into the broader implications of color and music therapy, emphasizing the importance of culturally tailored content. The technical aspects of the SDXL model and its LoRA fine-tuning showcase its capability to generate high-quality, culturally specific images. This research stands at the forefront of integrating mental wellness practices with cultural heritage, providing a groundbreaking perspective on the synergy between technology, culture, and healthcare. In future work, we aim to employ biosignals to assess the level of engagement and effectiveness of color therapy. A key focus will be to examine the impact of the Emirati heritage Al Sadu art on Emirati individuals and compare their responses with those of other nationalities. This will provide deeper insights into the cultural specificity of therapeutic interventions and further the understanding of the unique interplay between cultural identity and mental health therapy.
