ok, so i got a book today, about learning who you are using creative means. (mostly because im interested in art/music therapy).
so, i will do a little at a time, and put it here, with the excercise questions, and my challenge to you, would be to do it along side me. how about it?!
the first excercise i did is...
who am i today?
write a paragraph to describe yourself.
Today i am a confused recovering anorexic. i play the recorder at music college, and my hobbies include learning the harp, messing around with art, and dancing (newly taken up). i am scared of who i am, and not sure how il turn out. i live on the edge just balanced towards recovery, but constantly dreaming of not eating again.
Describe yourself in one sentance.
Im a chatty, nutty, funny recorder playing music geek who secretly wishes she was a ballet dancer instead!
describe youself in one word and draw a picture/symbol that represents that word.
Nerves - with a :-s face by it.
next excercise is...
roles i play
write as many roles as you can think of that you play...
student, friend, helper, sister, daughter, grand daughter, cousin, lover, philosopher, debator, carer, musician, artist, dancer, actress, steward, defender, protector, logical voice of reason, dreamer, ice breaker, camper, animal lover, film buff.
choose your faveorite 2 roles and write a paragraph about why you enjoy each role.
Debator - being able to play too my strengths and think outside the box by discussing anything and everything! i love being talkative, and its one thing i feel confident and able in. i like acheiving, and no one has ever told me i cant debate!
protector - i want to help people and by fighting their corner, i can do what no one did for me. i beleive everyone should have someone who cares, and i feel privalaged and thankful when i can play that role. what goes aroung comes around, and i guess i hope one day, someone will protect me too.
so, if you take up the challenge, do the excercises along with me x
I'll join you - will do the exercise later :-) x
