rania’s bio    



if you are experiencing blocks within yourself or your practice,
these can be addressed through your body.  

in these individualized sessions we can:

help you to stand in your true expression
listen to what your creative blocks, fear and critical voices within are    
      saying, in order to shift them
connect with wider energies from nature
understand from an embodied place what is important and beautiful
      about you and /  or your art
work with feelings of vulnerability  
for artists: attend to pain or shame from:                      
                              > negative reviews
                              > negative experiences sharing or performing
                              > betrayal within personal or professional collaborations                                          
                              > systemic rejection based on class, race and or gender
                              > harmful professors, teachers, art schools, parents,  
                                  institutions  
                              > feeling like you are not a “real artist” because you need to
                                  work a day job, parent or support your family,
                                 because you did or didn’t go to art school, etc
                 
get to deeper aspects of your personal and political journey as an artist
recommit to or even release aspects of your life and work as an artist
situate and understand your work within wider systems and contexts on
    planet earth and capitalism
