⦠your body has already told the story.
The way you walk into a room.
The way your shoulders sit.
The way your breath moves⦠or doesnāt.
The way your eyes land⦠or avoid.
All of that speaks.
And most of the time, itās not something you chose consciously.
Itās something your body learned.
From stress.
From habits.
From past experiences.
From trying to hold it together.
So when youāre working on a scene or a character, sometimes the block is not in the text.
Itās in the body that is trying to protect you while youāre trying to express something real.
Thatās why we start here.
Not by pushing emotion.Not by forcing performance.
š But by asking:
š What is my body doing right now?
š What is it holding?
š What is it protecting?
š What is it not allowing?
Because once you see itā¦
You have a choice.
You can stay in the pattern.
Or you can begin to shift it.
And thatās where your range opens.
š šæ Small Monday Practice
Before you say a word :
Pause.
Take one breath.
Notice:
Is your jaw tight?
Are your shoulders lifted?
Is your breath shallow?
Are you already ādoingā something?
Then soften just 5%.
And speak from there.
