Human life cannot be repeated, but in the theater of omnipotence, life can not only be repeated, but also reversed, and can be carried out in various ways and in multiple ways. Therefore, I hope that the elderly grandma will have a new life state in the theater that can be freely operated. They can freely create their own lives and freely perform various possibilities. Through theater experience, they will experience that even though their years have passed, they can still gain peace and hope and develop their own new meaning.
The most important tool in theater is the "body", which we often use to express psychological intentions. When working with grandmas, I constantly remind them to be aware of their bodies and to feel their bodies with concentration. This process is very important, and it is even more significant for this group of women who have experienced special experiences. Grandma's trauma is not only psychological, those traumas have been directly inflicted on their bodies. Many women who have been sexually assaulted will have negative feelings about their bodies. Although I have not formally evaluated the acceptance of their bodies by grandmas, it is important to let them feel the beauty of their bodies again through theater exercises. . For example, the activity may only be about moving your hands to warm up, but a pair of hands can have many different movement possibilities, such as clapping, crossing, swinging, hugging... and so on. This allows people to learn to realize that the body not only exists objectively, but also has functions; another meaning is to be aware of the multiple possibilities of the human body, even if it is hands-on, there will be a variety of different possibilities. This also implies that there are many different interpretations and possibilities for meaning in life.
In theater work, imagination is very important. Some things cannot be expressed concretely, so you have to rely on imagination to capture them. Drama therapy also often uses the conversion of "symbols" and "rituals", which also relies on imagination, such as dressing wounds. By connecting the ritual with the psychological state, it can be transformed into a symbol of the healing of psychological trauma, which is very helpful for the grandma. Training the imagination of the grandma, who is on average 80 years old, often becomes an important part of our work together.
The counselor tailors a suitable theme for the grandma, allowing the grandma to feel and experience the body and the impossibility of life in a relaxed atmosphere such as dressing up and playing games; for example, "rearranging the newborn scene" allows the grandma to re-understand Her birth is actually a precious life that is blessed and deserves to be loved and cared for; "Grandma's Childhood Life", "Grandma's Youth" and "Grandma's Work" let us relive childhood games and recall youth The entertainment of the good times, and the era when grandma was most proud of, worked hard, supported her family, and was most capable. Finally, through the theme of the "Grandma's Dream" workshop, it helped grandma herself to talk to her deceased relatives, and gradually Discuss with my grandma the issues of death that are imminent in old age.
