“If you are going through hell, keep going.”- “要通过地狱般的困境，就是坚持前进。” 今天的这一段，是给所有经历过……或者正身在伤痛中的人们。
当遇见似乎不能化解的痛苦时，是不是总会有好心人劝诫你不能落荒而逃，而是要给伤痛’留出空间’和它’四目对视，和平相处’？不批判地直视痛苦，听上去好像是一条合理甚至必要的建议，但也让说话人有’站着说话不腰疼’的嫌疑。在难以忍受而又无法逃避的痛苦中’静坐’也许有必要，但得来个具体的’使用手册’才好用。在’静坐’时分，能做什么才能减轻苦痛的程度，加速你的恢复，甚至能看到以前没有瞥见的机会呢？「艺术的疗愈」是今天的一剂方子，虽然具体如何去做，还要看你选择的路径……对于疗伤的你，我想说：即使带着怀疑的方式，也要去试一下。
希望你在今天的节目结束时能找到一些安慰，甚至实际的’疗伤’解决方案。

Artful healing- is it for you?
Today’s story is for those of you who have ever experienced pain, or maybe are in the midst of a painful life episode right now.
The advice we’ve sometimes been given when pain strikes is to ‘hold space’, sit with pain to allow it to process and eventually dissipate, observe without judgement, or to ‘walk through pain’. While they all sound 'legit' and even necessary, I, for one, never fully understood how to ‘sit’ in the burning fire of unbearable, inescapable pain.
I started to try out different ‘coping’ mechanisms to see which one ‘works’ for me. And what I discovered is this: while it is essential to not just run away and hide under covers, there are different things you can do to reduce the severity of pain, expedite your healing, and even uncover opportunities you couldn’t see. To use ‘art’ as a medium for healing may sound impossible, but let’s unpack it and see what this healing through art business is all about.
It’s worked for me and many others, will it also work for you? When all else fails on your descent to the bottom, could art be the one that breaks your fall?
I hope that you’ll find some comfort, and even practical solutions by the end of today’s episode.
