“Whenever you interact with people, don't be there primarily as a function or a role, but as the field of conscious Presence.” Tolle
‘It’s Monday morning and she’s struggling. A 9-year-old girl, wearing a helmet to protect her when she falls. She cries, inconsolably. A trainee educator walks back and forth with her. Suddenly they walk past me. Her eyes meet mine. She lets go of the educator’s hand and throws herself into my arms. She melts. She calms down and after a while I can leave her in her own safe space. Soon after she crawls around and she looks happy.
A few weeks later I run into her again. This time she’s not struggling, but she’s somewhat absent. Until she sees me. Her eyes hold mine, she recognizes me and is totally present.’
A quality that we practice and keep practicing as clowns is to be as much as possible in the ‘here and now’. The past is behind us and the future has not yet arrived. Now is the only moment that exists.
Your body and your breath are always in the now. That’s why it is important to give them a lot of attention.
In clowning we practice to first feel our emotions and actions and to let them grow, before we play them. This is called ‘containing’. For example, I want to hug my clown buddy. I don’t do this immediately, but first I feel the desire to do this. I let my desire grow, it’s getting bigger and bigger, and then finally I take action.
