Dear friends, what you see in the photo is one of the outcomes of my unexpected "at-home-art-residence". I was sick with whooping cough for a couple of months this summer. If you have never had it - it's INTENSE (if you were unlucky to have it maybe you remember unstoppable bouts of cough - up to almost suffocating - relentless stuff).
I was very lucky to have my "Visual NVC" methods specifically to work with the body and the symptoms. As I was tuning into my body with art, connecting with the sensations and breathing and placing what was overwhelming on the pages, I felt relief and gratitude at being witnessed/self-witnessing in this way. And with more connection with my body and the whole brain, more strategies and people who supported me withing that intense time appeared. I'm so GRATEFUL for those synchronicities. And I was AMAZED later when I found out that it was a whooping cough, how many helpful things that came my way after creating art were what were proven by research for lightening the symptoms of this malady.
For the painting in the photo (support: 100% cotton, hot pressed, A0 format; medium: watercolours) I used two of the methods I taught years ago during the pandemic in the trainings about healing, body and art. I am so grateful I had these, and am so amazed how well they supported me, that to make it more widely available, for those of you who want to boost your connection with your body and seek ways to improve well--being I want to offer you this time limited discount (will last for another week, 10 coupons) for this training in recording - five "Visual NVC" art methods, about ten hours' recordings, Q&A, coaching, art techniques and littlest bit of theory.
