Witnessing Emotions
Intuitive Art Alchemy
The magical process of creation & transformation—a ritual you can practice on your own at any time.
Be a witness for your emotions. Practice tapping into your center of calm while allowing your emotions to express their wisdom through art.
Gather any art materials you feel called to use.
Take a moment to find your center and ground into that place.
When you feel ready, do a body scan looking for places of tension or stored emotion in the body. Choose a place to focus and ask the tension or emotion what it would like to express.
Stay in touch with your center and witness the expression as you create. Pause as needed to get grounded, and continue witnessing the expression and sensations that arise until the tension or emotion has passed.
When finished, you can journal for five minutes about what it was like to hold space as a witness for your tension or emotion. How did it feel in the process, and how do you feel now?
