In the words of the great philosopher J. Krishnamurti, "Self-knowledge is the beginning of understanding; without self-knowledge, contradiction and conflict will continue. To know the whole process, the totality of oneself, does not require any expert, any authority. The pursuit of authority only breeds fear. No expert, no specialist, can show us how to understand the process of the self. One has to study it for oneself. You and I can help each other by talking about it, but none can unfold it for us, no specialist, no teacher, can explore it for us." (The First and Last Freedom, New York: Harper, 1954, p. 75)

So self-awareness can only come out of each of us engaging in improvisational play. This is the purpose of creative improvisational performance workshops. This is what I do.
