The dreaded blank page. When faced with it, suddenly everything and anything else seems more appealing -- even household chores. For actors, facing a script can be further  intimidating. It's a blank page where someone else has already poured their heart and soul. How do you now deliver on their vision, while also sparking and honoring your own creativity?

Today's episode is all about how to create a relationship with that initial panic of getting started. Whether it's writing, painting, dancing, or acting -- that beginning is always going to bring up the terror of the unknown.

And arguing with our fears and self doubts is a losing proposition. But dropping into our bodies, and listening to and engaging with all the sensations that are arising,  can be the way back to our creative spark.
