A short initial meditation with music puts us in a relaxed mood. We then start painting freely, i.e. we paint without any pressure to succeed. The pictures we paint are not judged, praised or evaluated. They are an expression of our feelings and therefore do not have to please anyone. It’s like yoga: only the action matters! Free painting allows us to create images that we carry within us and which we then put on paper. In doing so, we can enter into an inner dialogue with ourselves, relax, let feelings come up and process them.
