It was something I always had in my mind, but never felt brave enough. I'm such a shy girl, I always thought it would be amazing and at the same time impossible to me.
I guess this artistic side of myself cannot just be expressed through my brushes, as I do enjoy any kind of creative and expressive activity.
Last year while I was healing from an illness, I initiated some very innovative master studies we have the luck to have in Barcelona. I enrolled to the Personal Development and Leadership masters studies at the University.
PNL, Gestalt, Constellations, Personal coaching, Therapeutic Theater, Tantra, Yoga & Meditation, etc... every weekend you learn a new way, a new perspective to put your attention on your thoughts, your body and your actions.
I found myself having conversations with myself, but not listening to what my body was asking for, and on top of that, my actions were not always aligned either. Why? Fear. Unfortunately, fear is the driver of most of our actions. Instead of love and care for yourself.
When I discover the power of using theater techniques as a way to growth and overcome these fears, I didn't doubt at all! This year it's been smiles, tears, screams, long silences. It's been reconnecting with my body. Listening. Reacting with my whole body, instead of just doing it from my mind. Becoming an animal. A child. A woman.
The only important thing here, is that we are working on getting out of the comfort zone until the end of this journey.
