PRACTICE DIARY / One Year Journey

Hello 🌿🌿🌿,

In July 2021 I decided to pay closer attention to the process of my practice and started a one year challenge - Practice Diary Vlog.
I would take camera with me to my practices, rehearsals, performances, events and travels, record some snippets from the process and my thoughts on it and release monthly videos on YouTube.

The most challenging part for me was to be able to communicate my thoughts and insights in front of the camera. But now, looking back at it, I feel happy I ventured upon this journey and created a special memory for myself.

I believe in Practice. Practice as an art by itself.
Solo journey of finding my way.

Quite often I loose myself thinking about the external world with its validation systems, when I am trying to evaluate my body of work based on those validations.
Other times I think about possibility of me praising the process of the practice as the way of protecting my ego from the failure.

Anyhow, I know for sure, practice is what makes me feel good, it is a place for exploration, creativity and learning about myself. It's my therapy, "a difficult journey to trust in my self".
It is my art.

And I also want to note that I really appreciate your attention and some warm comments you have been leaving under my videos throughout the year.
