You're already whole, there's nothing broken

The thing most often getting in actors’ way was their anxiety. And as I learned to read their neurobiology through my training in Organic Intelligence, I started to understand where the creative system becomes really organized, fruitful and playful.

I created a system that I call The Creative Path.When I work with actors, the fundamental premise is: you’re already whole. There’s nothing broken and there’s nothing to fix. There may simply be things in the way of you being conscious of what’s already there.

The first part of the work is rebalancing the creative system: the creative mind, the creative body, and the creative source. Sometimes these are out of balance depending on where you are in your life, how the career has impacted you, whether you’re just starting out, or whether you’ve been acting for 40 years and you’re burnt out.

And it always makes me laugh when someone says, “I’ve taken a break from acting.” Well, have you been living? Yes? Then you haven’t taken a break from acting. Acting is so much about being alive to your life, and actually experiencing your life.

The creative mind expresses itself through meaning: your thoughts, opinions, insights, judgments and imagination. Actors often have very fertile imaginations and a strong meaning channel. But it takes time to organize a system where you’re not simply thinking and judging, but actually living a meaningful life.

Meaning is connected to impulse, intuition, and your own original purpose. A system becomes embodied, congruent and aligned when it is living a life that is meaningful to it. And that is incredibly important in this career because it’s what can give you a long career.
The question is: Is this meaningful to me?
And you are the one who creates that meaning. The industry is not going to give it to you. That’s our individual responsibility.
So we work with creating a system that is specific to you. Every actor has a different creative system, and the work is about discovering what yours is and how it works.
