At the beginning of workshop, we had a meditation like exercise, where we would concentrate on breathing and clearing our heads. We did something like this in Joy Hoopers workshop as well. But it was different this time, I'm not sure why. I guess it's because everything else is different, time has passed, we're in a different environment with different people and a different workshop teacher.
We then did a series of exercising that had to do with repeating, much like we do in STAC but he gave us the words or sentences that had to be repeated. It got very loud, and I liked it. I was amazed at how one simple little word like "no" can change you. You can be thinking about nothing in particular but once you start repeating no you become angry or powerful depending on who you are repeating with. At the end of the series of different repeating exercises I felt relived, like I'd been holding everything in and now that I let it out I was the strongest person alive and that nothing could stop me. It was a very interesting experience.
Towards the end, we played the machine game and then "meditated"some more, this was a nice way of winding down. I felt like I could burst into any emotion if I didn't.
