Thank you for having me! Excited to be here :) #UNMUTE

What a great question! I first got involved with #mindfulness from my master #opera teacher in Vienna, Austria, who introduced me to lot of tools for how to start to get my mind on my own side. When you sing, all of you is the instrument. So what you think is what you sing. (1/2)

#Mindfulness is vital to my art. As an artist, I'm mining my emotional experience of life and translating it into what I create. I've learned I need to be very grounded to do this type of expansive work and I'm still learning. I meditate, journal,and make sure to sweatdaily!(2/2)

(3/3) I forgot one thing! I took a class in college called #Compassion, where we studied Nelson Mandela, Ghandi, Dalai Lama, Viktor Frankl and that actually was my first introduction to eastern spirituality principles. It's been my guiding light for how to live my life ever since

Haha well I said that almost two months ago now and I think now we might be in a different position. Part of it still rings true but also, some of us do have a bit more stability after 4 months of lockdown so our productivity can increase again. I know mine slowly has. (1/2)

But yes, I still stand by the sentiment that if we sacrifice our health for 'productivity' then often there's a big price to pay. I personally strive for #success that is when health and productivity are balanced and positively symbiotic.(2/2)

Oh yes #WhenThingsFallApart is, as The On Being Project #kristatippet says, the 'break glass when in emergency' book for myself andso many others. It got me through a dark time a year ago and certainly has helped me get through the past 4 months. It's an honour to adapt it for this monologue

Haha oh so many! Music is my ally, instigator, co-conspirator, and bestie in my work. A song captures such essence of moments and layers of experience. I make a playlist for every writing I do. I'm inspired and enjoy just about every type of music! My list is very long...

I'm getting this time by being inspired of course by Lin-Manuel Miranda's #Hamilton and especially #BLM and #Pollen playlists on Spotify given our current events in the US. My go-to for grounding and opening my heart (which is called for daily!) is India Arie and Heather Mae

Yes! Currently I'm amplifying #BlackArtists and #BlackLivesMatter in any way I can. I'm continuing my #antiracist work and unpacking my #whiteprivilege. I'm also supporting #WeShallNotBeRemoved and making sure the movement stays #accessible and #inclusive to #disabilities (1/2)

My tip is to build and support your community-with your loved ones, in your neighborhood, in your country, in our world. We are all being called in the biggest ways to contribute and be #nonsibi - not for oneself. The needs are so great right now so to give wherewhen you can(2/2)

We couldn't agree more. This is such a great point, and the intersection between community and giving links nicely towards the '5 ways of wellbeing', and Koko's point around 'finding your tribe'! Such a great answer to round off today's #UNMUTE Q&A!

Thank you so much HACK Theatre for this thoughtful Q&A! What a delight to start the week with you and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to share my perspective. Please check out my work and the other 5 brilliant artists of #UNMUTE! So proud to be part of it 😀
