DIALOGUE WITH MY MASK

GUIDELINES:
SPEND TIME IN SILENCE AND WHEN YOU ARE
PROPERLY DISPOSED, LOOK AT YOUR MASK AND
ASK QUESTIONS AND TRY TO GET TO KNOW AS
MUCH AS YOU CAN FROM THE MASK WHY MY
MASK LOOKS THIS WAY? WHAT ARE HIS/HER
THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS? WHAT ARE HIS/HER
DESIRES? WHAT IS HIS/HER PAST? ALLOW YOUR
MASK TO SPEAK TO YOU IN YOUR SILENCE. LISTEN
TO YOUR MASK INTENTLY AND WITH REVERENCE. IF
ANY EMOTIONS OR FEELINGS MAY SURFACE, JUST
ALLOW IT TO FLOW.

REFLECTION:
HOW DOES YOUR MASK MIRROR THE PERSON
YOU ARE NOW?
WHAT PART OF YOURSELF DO YOU SEE IN
THIS MASK?
ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THIS MASK? WHAT
ABOUT IN THIS MASK THAT MAKES YOU
HAPPY?
ARE THERE ANY PARTS OF YOUR MASK THAT
YOU ARE NOT HAPPY ABOUT? WHAT ARE
THESE PARTS? CAN YOU NAME THE FEELINGS
OR EMOTIONS IN EACH OF THESE PARTS THAT
YOU ARE NOT HAPPY ABOUT?

IF YOUR MASK MIRRORS THE FACE THAT YOU

SHOW TO THE WORLD OUTSIDE, WHAT DOES
YOUR MASK SAY ABOUT YOU? HOW DO YOU
FEEL ABOUT IT?
