Embodied Role Reversing

Embodied Role Reversing

In times like now, when our differences are dominant, how does one seek harmony? Reversing roles, a beautiful tool in #Psychodrama is one way to be in the shoe of another, long enough for embodied empathy.

Being on the periphery is a heartache,
There is nowhere to hide; NADA breaks.

Repeatedly, reminders with words such as “PARDON”. !
Reciting the exact words over, nowhere to run.

Denting the interior, conveyed in forced silences.
Seeking solace in spaces with minimal effort.

If anyone wants to ROLE-REVERSE with another,
Embody the pain until you falter.

It’s one thing to be resourced cognitively
Another to own it spine-ly.
