Today while my work life is very busy, I am trying to stay aware of the need for self-care. I allowed myself a later start to the day and a normal length walk. I feel more ready to cope with the course o the day now. My studio is open to the public this weekend which is a very vulnerable thing for me to be engaged with. I am there to talk about all my various forms of making as well as, hopefully, sell some items. In anticipation of this annual event I always feel very stressed - it is like putting your soul on the line for public inspection. Once the days get underway and people come and engage with my making I feel better and even enjoy the contact and the chance to talk about my processes and my thinking. It is just the dreaded anticipation.
