About Project O
Changing the essence of your own pain... and thereby helping others. That is the goal of this project group. Participants will work intensively with their own obstacles, emotions and inner challenges. They are coached weekly to achieve personal growth and new insights. These experiences are transformed into artistic work forms, such as the film Story of the mind. Project O is a project led by Silvie Hurkmans.
Goal Project O
Our aim is to give insight into what processing emotions can bring. It is a way of dealing with inner pain, obstacles and trauma. With this film, we want to inspire, give the helping hand to go on such an inner journey to yourself. It is our way of giving something back to society, in which so much emotional help is needed.
About the Journey Method
The Healing Journey is an effective and inspiring method for (self)healing. Developed by Brandon Bays, The Journey is not only a philosophy: it also offers practical steps, techniques and meditations you can carry out. Above all, The Healing Journey is above all a way in which you remove masks, walls and protection for your authentic self. As a result, you get to your true emotions. You will actually start to express these emotions, so that all useless masks and personas will disappear.
About the film Story of the mind
The film Story of the mind gives an insight into one person's thoughts and emotions. This could be anyone. It is a film about the search for inner peace beneath all the emotional layers we know. We follow this person while having a sense of not knowing and confusion in her mind. She goes on a search through a journey through her mind (inner journey) to find herself, her essence. The journey passes by a painful memory that is repressed, which has caused her to behave differently. Her true self has been suppressed underneath all those emotions and she does not feel free to be herself anymore. We see past the big emotions like Angry, Powerless, Sadness, Fear, and the enormous task of surrendering to the unknown. Also, the intense sense of freedom and creativity it brings, you get to experience in this train of thought and feeling. Story of the mind is a film made by the passionate volunteers of Project O.
