DBT Asheville brings forward DBT “inspired” creative arts activism. One way of experiencing ‘Shakti’ (Sanskrit for Goddess, Creative Fullness) is to increase mindful reverence of vitality.
Creative expression is another avenue. Dialectically speaking, engaging in creative expression and reverence for the fullness of all that is, alive and vital is equally important to developing mindfulness.
“As a longer practitioner of all I offer professionally, long time DBT PE clinician + originally developed Dialectical Yoga Therapist (DYT) – I have found it important to engage in creative artistic expression to balance myself energetically in my life-work equilibrium. As a spiritual and sexual minority in the U.S., I practice numerous feminine embodiments that develop my character and enhance vitality. It is a wise therapist who gets the delicate “embodied” balance of creative-artistic expression -with- mindfully holding space for one’s own and others’ emotional digestion.”
“Over time, I will share more of my personal creative developments via the button below. For now, I offer a link below to an excerpt on what tantra actually is. (This scholarly excerpt mentions Shaki and how tantra-yoga is life-embracing vs. life-transcendent like many branches of yoga~ this is where Sarah sees a tantrik-yoga fit with her DBT Shakti Artistry) .
