Prompts:

1.  Who am I afraid of not becoming?  What qualities do I most want to exhibit as a human?  How do I want to be?

2. If I could focus all of my energy to eliminate one fear I have, what fear would I choose to resolve?

3. How would tomorrow play out if I had no fear and only curiosity in my everyday regular existence and normal self?

In this episode, Bird speaks extemporaneously from the heart on the subject of intrusive thoughts and what she/they have been doing to ground themself.  Tune in to hear how they have turned triggers into cues for self care, using the drawing process as an opportunity for practice.  Or read along with the Show Transcript available at:

In this episode, Bird reads three stories about times when she has lived up to personal challenges in art.  While these anecdotes center around learning experiences in drawing from life, the main theme is cultivating a mission with your art and being open to a pivot or growth opportunity.

What are accessible Supplies?  In this episode I cover the following aspects of accessibility:  Affordability, freely available, Do it yourself or DIY, not too fancy that you feel like a mistake would ruin the supplies. To what end?  Process! Journaling means daily, so whether it’s planning, or working through ideas, recording the obvious or drawing for relaxation, for attunement between your emotions and actions.  My focus with Journal Stew is on the additive behaviour over time, on consistent practice as exploration.
