Come and stand in the corner.
With your face to the wall. And – ideally – tilt your head a bit. Just give it a go: Stand in the corner and stop thinking for a moment. Simply feel what it’s like to stand there. For one minute, or at least half a minute (but there’s no need to count). Come on! Just try it.
So? What did it feel like in the corner?
- Cosy
- Calm, quiet
- Safe, in fact
- I thought I was going to fall over backwards
- I was scared
- I got fidgety
- Other
You can do it again if you like. And you can go and stand in a corner at home as well (and then you’ll be a work of art yourself). In fact, you can do it anywhere. There’s no shortage of corners. (You’re a work of art even if you’re not standing in a corner, but let’s keep that to ourselves.)
