Flow State, Method Acting, and Becoming the Person You Want to Be Pt. 2 | Schauer Thoughts

Here we are, part two of our series on becoming who you want to be using method acting and flow state! This week we’ll be fleshing out our potential new personas, giving them motivations, beliefs, lore, and much more to *temporarily* adopt characteristics to expand our range - logically and expressively. No need for movement clothes or dance shoes in the communal Schauer, just hop in whenever you’re ready.
