Freedom

“EVERY ACT OF CREATION IS FIRST AN ACT OF DESTRUCTION” (Picasso) Allowing the polarity of DECONSRUCTION & RECONSTRUCTION or DESTROY & CREATE to inspire the creative process, letting newness and inspiration arise.  A deeply, heart-opening session. I had my first tears of inspiration, just reading through the  briefing! A perfect and relevant theme for me to work with, as I strive to re-create myself. What do I keep, what do I let go of? I was enthusiastic,…

Mindful Morning – Inviting newness

"I invite you to breathe newness into your day today, and every day" In this week's Mindful Morning we explored embracing the new and developing moments in your life, opening up to changing perspectives. As an artist, I am always seeking to change perspective, seeking newness, yet simultaneously, I have a deep desire for stability and the safety of routines.

Mindful Morning – Harmonie

Mindful Morning / November 2021 / HARMONIE Ich habe den Mindful Morning ins Leben gerufen, weil ich den Wunsch verspürte, Freunde und Menschen dabei zu unterstützen, mehr Freude und Inspiration durch sich selbst zu spüren.

The importance of not being ready

My second session, I´m bursting with both excitement and apprehension. Working from home means that I´m constantly distracted, and if I´m not actually distracted, then I find things to distract myself with – hanging up the washing, taking out the rubbish – as if everything needs to be perfect before I can start!? Eventually, I settle in, set up my table, pull out my art materials and look at the brief in front of me. For a…

Rediscovering my Inner Light

My intention in writing this blog is to share my experiences, my journey to re-discovering and growing my creative self. The workshops that I will be writing about, are based on the teachings of the ASTAR* process. My first contact with the ASTAR process was in October 2016, then again in October 2017, and now at last I´m able to fulfill this dream of mine, to engage and submerge in this process. And so it is only…
