Spirituality has always been something I’ve been drawn to and never took the time to embrace. I see it as a life-long process but I’m happy I took the leap.

How does spirituality manifest itself in your own life?

How do you get back to yourself when you’re emotionally drained?

Bit late posting today – I was busy doing the things and feeling the feels!

Day 10/100 – Endings https://blankcanvasproject.ca/day-10-100-until-we-meet-again/ Fri, 23 Apr 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://blankcanvasproject.ca/?p=906

I’ve been working on this show for 10 months – these beautiful humans have been my main source of social interaction throughout this crazy year and I couldn’t have asked for a better group to be surrounded by for 12 hours a day.

I still really struggle with the wrap-up portion of film. And that’s okay – I see it as proof of a genuinely good experience and deep connections built. 

How are you with goodbyes and endings? Mine generally involve tears…😭

Doesn’t quite roll off the tongue as easily, but feels much more authentic to me and my process.

What would your creative saying be?

Day 8/100 – Back To Basics https://blankcanvasproject.ca/day-8-100-back-to-basics/ Wed, 21 Apr 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://blankcanvasproject.ca/?p=890

My top 6 consistent Wellbeing practices are:
*Exercise (preferably outside, or dancing)

*Minimum 7 hours of sleep

*Drinking more water than I think is necessary

*Eating minimum 2000 calories per day

*Journalling (morning pages, FTW)

(Note: these are also usually the first things that slip when shit’s going sideways)

What are some basics that keep you feeling tethered?

Day 5/100 – Resistance https://blankcanvasproject.ca/day-5-100-resistance/ Sun, 18 Apr 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://blankcanvasproject.ca/?p=870

‘Resistance’ Time for me typically shows up in the form of:

*getting really busy with other things (usually less important than the goal)

*escapism (books and movies are my favourite)
*endless social media scrolling

*doing a lot of little actions that outwardly seem important to the goal, rather than the big action I’m resisting

Note: I typically have a story that these things are ‘bad’ or ‘wrong’ – I’m starting to believe they’re actually a natural part of the goal setting process.

What are some of your ‘Resistance’ time activities?
