While everyone is checking their phones, the news, the radio and twitter:) for updates...it is equally important to remember to CHECK IN WITH YOURSELF. It is one of the reasons I am making a point to be a voice for self "tune-ins" these coming weeks. Another way to phrase this would be for you to take stock of what you are needing mentally, physically and emotionally to help you feel best in this moment, day or week.
So HOW DO YOU STAY TUNED TO YOURSELF and the world around you in order to be a more EMPOWERED artist? It seems everyone I know is feeling just slightly or even extremely agitated by the coronavirus and all of the unknown changes being thrown our way.
But I want to remind you EMBODIED PERFORMANCE PRACTICES ARE THE WAY OF THE FUTURE. Actually they are the way RIGHT NOW for performers who want to live sustainable lives earning what you desire, having time to create your original art, eat well, have nourishing relationships, tend to the needs of your voice, body and mind and more. Growing up in a community of artists my entire life this is what I have observed to be the REAL DEFINITION OF SUCCESS.
So this week I am offering short, daily practices that you can weave into your regular or growing toolkit. Want more tools for your embodied practice? ask to join my Empowered Artist Facebook group.
