My Recent Favourite Poem

Love After Love

The time will come when, with elation you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror and each will smile at the other's welcome, and say, sit here. Eat. You will love again the stranger who was your self. Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life, whom you ignored for another, who knows you by heart. Take down the love letters from the bookshelf, the photographs, the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror. Sit. Feast on your life. - Derek Walcott

Dramatherapy Skills Training Workshops

A couple of weeks back I had facilitated a dramatherapy skills training workshop. The workshops were mainly for counselors and other mental health practitioners. I felt that it went on very well .
A few of the participants have been in the helping profession for quite some time and had a lot of wisdom about their work which they shared in the group.
There were also a few participants who are fairly new in the helping profession and they had brought with them a fresh perspective to the group.
I was very inspired by the participants - by their enthusiasm explore a different method of working with their clients, their insights and the willingness to share some information about their lives.
I look forward to facilitating more of such workshops in the future.
