Be your Self and GROW - Art Therapy for the Art Therapist

There are no "how to be yourself" instructions in Nature...

Tiny seeds already know how to become giant trees...

Everything is born with its own intelligence...

Even humans...

Even Me... 

If I say:"I don't know what do do", I am expressing disconnection from who and what I really am...

I have realised that all anyone can ever really "do",  is become that which they have been born to become...

That is all

Day 20 mandala a day - "Singing My Own Song"

I am learning that to sing my own song, is a metaphor for remaining visible as the individual I have grown into, no matter what, because it is good for my metaphorical heart, and makes the world a kinder place...

New Year's Eve, I gathered with friends, to make intuitive collage from old magazines, as an ART/ Art Therapy/divinitary practice...

Mine ended up being named:"Singing My Own Song"...
It seemed a pretty, although mysterious collection of images...

Now, into the 8th month of the year, I begin to see what this means to me:
to keep singing my own song, not shutting up or shutting down about what is important to me...
When people try to try to silence me for their own self-gratification, I will not take it personally...
my vulnerability is my own to protect, and not theirs, to take as my sacrifice...
