It's difficult for me to write with my left hand. And it's because of that, that I have to concentrate more... it brings me to being in the NOW. That also gives me more peace, more calm. My mind is more blank.
I think when I write with my left hand, the concentration that I gave to each letter, is just like a child learning how to write.
I started by writing my name with my left hand over & over again, on a blank sheet of paper. Of course my writing looks big and horrible. I don't focus on how horrible my writing is. I focus on the peacefulness, the concentration that I get.
As my concentration increases and also more calm. I started to 'ask' question with my right hand (whatever that is on my mind). Questions like,
"how do you feel",
"why are you angry",
"how can I help you",
"can we work together" etc...
Then I pass my pen to my left hand. Whatever thoughts that flows, I write. After that my right hand will 'answer', then my left hand... it's a dialogue on paper. <img src="/images/graemlins/easter.gif" alt="" />
This process brings out a lot of negative emotions and pain. Sometimes tears just flow, I don't let the tears stop me, I just kept crying and writing until I'm more at peace. Then I know that I have let go (either part or the entire) of that issue.
To me, it is a good way to let it out in silence.
Anyway, the only person that can help me is myself.
