"Don't get over feelings, get into them". ☀️🍇🍊 This quote from my friend @louiseandrolia today really woke me up 💡 often times I feel my spiritual practice conflicts with my acting as gurus urge us to heal feelings and move past pain and hurt quickly rather than feel it. But as an actor feelings are my paints and I find so much healing and happiness in plunging in to them and splattering them around. This compulsion to be ok or happy only blocks my permission to feel intensely and leaves me empty handed in my art. It's a messy business but I find that mess is the only place an artist can thrive and I love that. I strongly encourage you to follow @louiseandrolia for her exploration of feelings and her beautiful art that expresses them. 💖
