Hello dears,

this is a practice of active meditation through drawing. It is to facilitate being with ourselves, digging into our corporealities and minds, to explore how what and where we are feeling, allowing their translations and expressions to blossom on the drawing. Maybe as a process to canalize these emotions and entities in, or/and, out of our bodies, depending on what are our desires.

I wanted to start this practice at the edges of our days/nights as a conciliator with my sleep and resting time, as I have quite some issues with agitated sleep, interruptions, and random somnolent moments afterward. But follow your own will to spontaneously scan your body through drawing or at any other situation of relevance for you.

Here some recommendations for an agreeable practice, please follow them as it would suit you more and add what you like or skip some:

- silence your phone - set a timer for this practice, maybe between 5 and 15 minutes - get the tools you would like to use and have them nearby, of course, follow your will if at any moment you get inspired and wanna get some other elements to draw and paint with. Be generous or restrictive with your drawing tools. Experiment with food or explore the subtle pencil trace, watercolors, finger paint … - ask yourself if there’s any drink/food you’d like to have nearby - maybe some scent if available (I’m delighted by chamomilla and white tea incense sticks these days, also sage…) -start drawing -date and give name to your drawing

if you feel like share your drawings with us, fernandezantolin.laura@gmail.com and info[a]mohaproject.com so we’ll post them here
