Oct 31, 2022 Season 1 Episode 15
Dr Mark Grixti

In this episode I am joined by Noula, an amazing artist, psychotherapist, author and Brainspotting Trainer.  Noula embodies her playful and creative approaches to healing as she explains how the arts and creativity can be accessed to reorient from positions of control, rigidity and stuckness to an open flow state that is paramount to deep brain and body, emotional recovery.  We discuss the way one can 'allow' the brain to engage and operate differently through art to explore the patterns of judgement that are happening internally much of the time through negative appraisal and egoic restrictions.  Through playfulness, and within a compassionate and allowing relationship with the therapist, each person can recognise these self-judgements to begin to explore the liberty and power that comes with returning to the true self and the abundance of resources that are within.  I was struck by the way Noula introduces art and creativity in such a non-threatening way to facilitate a sense of 'betweeness' for each person as a portal to a deep and healing journey back to the true self.
