The writer suggests that knowing Mindfulness. could help! Her description of the first time she saw a Robert Motherwell […]
Having a Project
When I even say the word ‘project’ to myself I immediately have a sensation of gathering in. It’s as strong as that, collecting all of myself together from where I’ve become scattered. Why? Well I see it as a signal to all my resources that are going to be called upon to contribute. Even though […]
