Dear Unresolved Soul, It’s Not Death You Fear, It's Life | Christina Helena | TEDxSouthLakeTahoe
Показать описание
It’s easy to assign fear to death. It’s unknown, mysterious with no second chances. I’ve faced death. More than once. And here is what I learned. It’s not death that I feared. It was life. Mortality is the excuse to avoiding life, because it’s so out of control. I don’t think it has anything to do with mortality. I don’t think we fear mortality. Perhaps we think we do. We fear living. We fear living, because we are unresolved in our soul. And to resolve it is too painful. To resolve it means to live. Christina Helena is a speaker, performer, writer and self-responsibility revolutionary based in New York City. She is redefining and modernizing the stigma behind trauma and pain with one simple thought: Your scar is the sexiest thing about you.
At nineteen years old, she became one of the youngest Pancreatic Cancer survivors in the world and four months later she graduated with her Bachelor’s degree in Communication Arts from Marymount Manhattan College. Christina knows the physical and emotional toll that our scars have on our self-worth and ability to love ourselves. Given six months to live Christina asked herself: “What do you want more, your potential or to run away from the pain?” Christina trained at LAMDA, The London Academy of Music & Drama where she earned a Master’s in Classical Performance. A couple years later, she studied philosophy and theology at the University of Philosophical Research earning a Master’s degree in Consciousness Studies. With a Master’s degree in Consciousness Studies, she offers a refreshing and captivating take on the soul and consciousness from a philosophical perspective. Her two Master’s degrees birthed SCAR, an autobiographical solo show currently in development for an off-Broadway production, to be directed by the award-winning director Larry Moss.
