Relaxation
When I was a young actor I studied every aspect of performance available to me. When I arrived at the HB Actors studio in New York I learned very quickly the benefit of having a deep connection to our "instrument" (the body). Through Opera and Musical Theater I learned vocal tone, diaphragm utilization, and gained a mastery of various accents, projection with ease, how to use my voice. Through dance I was able to connect with movement and use my body as language. Through writing and the study of literature I was able to exercise imagination through inspiration from others. The body as an instrument was essential to connecting with "spirit". I built confidence and deep connection with my body- I could utilize every component to tell a story and communicate affectively in film, television, theater and the greatest gain of all was my personal life.
To receive information and react according and compliance to truth with character we must be relaxed. The cycle of communication from information (given circumstance) to receive the thought which creates an emotion and in turn that emotion turns into behavior (action). Our bodies, minds, emotinal landscape must be relaxed and rid of tightness or ego.
Alexander Technique, Dance, Yoga, Vocal study, and a spiritual practice that connects us to the present moment are some considerations to add to your daily routine. These things move aside ego, connects us to our bodies.
As artists we must be relaxed- in "performance" and in our daily life. What are some practices that you incorporate to find grounding, inspiration, and connection?
Happy Easter and no matter how you choose to celebrate - Let's connect on the new abundance ahead of us. What we get to create and gratitude for the year ahead. As artists we are being called to step up and BE the creative positive energy . Through trust, openness, and imagination. We are manifesting magic.
