Balanced Resting State at ArtsEd

some lying down

Happy New Year! 

My lovely artsed students have just come back form their xmas break and as usual have returned with written reports from their assignment to lie down everyday. I listened to the first batch of MA papers this morning – wonderful insights and authentic journeys. I hope to put one or two up on the website soon.

 I always let them read their papers out to the rest of the group, so they can learn from each other by this sharing. I ask them to mainatin their attention on listening, without commenting, to make it a very safe place to reveal their stories and stop the habit of having to do the ‘noddies’ – signalling that they are listening. It is a practice used in 12 step programmes.

And some have added nice experiences on the I Like Lying Down in Semi-Supine page on Facebook. Check it out!
