Dear Thank you to these nine amazing participants in EAFI 210 in-person training course last week. Together we explored the foundations of the Expressive Arts field, the approaches of some of the pioneers, and the steppingstones
and foundations in each of us.
What is your own foundation in Expressive Arts? Whether you are a professional in the field, a curious beginner, or a person using this work for your own wellbeing, we invite you to be curious about the experiences on your own life path that have led you here. Recognize creativity as a thread in your
life and be curious about how that thread has unfolded so far. Is your arts process a resource for you? Do you turn to movement, music, image-making as a way to find peace within and as a way to cope with and counter the war and tragedies in the world around you? This work lifts up our individual and cultural imaginations, offering a way forward into hope and healing.
Take a moment to get quiet and still. Breathe deeply, and invite yourself to find a place of stillness and peace within. What color or shape is it? How might your body express it in movement or gesture? What sound does it make? Explore this in your own way. |
With gratitude, Kathleen, Tamara and the Expressive Arts Florida Team
