To be human is to feel pain. As actors, we wrestle with how to channel pain we have experienced into the roles we play, and ride the continuum between reliving experiences and with them, that pain, with the energy that consumes. How much is the art form itself, and how much is feeling something afresh? We all find our way with this. But apart from all the pain we might choose to excavate for our work, there is the pain we live with. The sensation of pain that starts in the body.  And the emotional pain that starts in our minds.
This podcast is about feeling the pain cleanly, without dwelling there. Without adding unnecessary suffering.  We can recognize the 50/50 of our emotional lives as part of being human. It is so freeing to understand that we can choose to change our thoughts and lessen our pain, or at least, not prolong it.
Something happens.
We have a thought about it.
It creates a painful feeling.
We allow it.
Our power lies with the Thought we have about it.
