Carpe diem, Carpe septimana!A series of stress-busting exercises

For art, for energy, for life

The end of this amazing year of full-time art studies is nearing its end. Although I am enjoying it immensely, a steady tension has been rising as our assignment pressures builds up steam toward the final projects. I am feeling slightly stressed (as in having heart flutters and recurrent, unresolved  dreams of projects and exhibitions, as artists do of course :) and have decided that this is no way to enjoy the last weeks here. I need a plan of action, a strategy, some marching orders to help break the fatigue and defuse the stress bomb that is threatening to cause serious damage, inhibit my intuition and ability to  discern and make important decisions (like weather should enroll in further studies next year...am I crazy?).

I have found few things as effective for relieving life's seriousness as changing the routine a bit. So I have decided that this week I will do things that I've been putting off, things that scare me, and things I won't be able to do after I leave here. I'll be ticking off lists and revive the joy and the enthusiasm we were meant to live with.

What would your seize the week look like? Let me know!

Seize the day, seize the week!
For art, for energy, for life.
