All challenges faced in life and in the creative arts can be distilled down to a lack of flow.
Muscular tension, fascial rigidity and inflammation slows us down, creating extra physical efforting, draining our energy, weakening our immune systems and truncating our respiratory flow. Lack of permission, self-effacing thoughts and lack of space for choice creates a lack of mental flow. Doubt regarding our skill and talent creates a lack of vocal flow. Therefore the rigors of life tend to separate these three components, keeping the body, breath and voice from working together as a unit - we become fractured and unhappy and feel something is missing. The Wilson Method is anti-numbing, anti UCVM work, reminding you how to live in your body, in the moment, and how to develop listening skills in relation to our thoughts and feelings. For performing artists, this includes cultivating a deeper connection with text and the emotional states of our characters.
