“Tell me, she said: What is the story you are telling? What wild song is singing itself through you? Listen: In the silence between there is music; In the spaces between there is story. It is the song you are living now, It is the story of the place where you are... It is happening right now in your breath, In your heart beat still Drumming the deeper rhythm Beneath your cracking words... Listen: In the silence between there is music; In the spaces between there is story. Pay attention: We are listening each other into being.” Sally Atkins #vivalabeat #expressiveartstherapy #inthemoment https://www.instagram.com/p/B0CjiCLAeZc/?igshid=1jokz1wnnsdtr

Witnessing the journey… Making no attempts to fine tune… No magnifying glass under our sleeves… No forcing artificial realizations… Sometimes we are called to be gentle spectators, to give ourselves the well-deserved time to lay back in appreciative retrospective... #beyondthemoment #naturalrhythms #landscapeinabox #vivalabeat #expressiveartstherapy #uncertainty (at East York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzdmwSvAHph/?igshid=1hfw8sqolbwlu

Life is a co-created experience. Whether we know it or not, we are always resonating, responding to and fanning each other’s creative fires. So let’s keep making room for art to art conversations! This morning’s composition “Bird Whistle Rose and Mallet Marine Tree on a Hide Canvas” features a Beauty-full crocheted rose by our friend Esther Rabinovich @schmeksipants 🖤 #vivalabeat #expressiveartstherapy #beauty #arttoart #inthemoment (at East York) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzLR7PJgvaM/?igshid=e7ymswa243hi
