REPLENISHING DANCES

Wednesday 10th February 2021

“Dance is the movement of the universe concentrated in an individual.”
_Isadora Duncan

What do you do to replenish the soul? Drip by drip the tediousness of life can sometimes chip away our energy. If we don’t do something about it soon we can find ourselves expended, lying down at the bottom of the energy barrel.

Actually out body is not limited energetically – we are machines for living and can keep creating life and energy. We only feel tired when we don’t take a break. As with everything we need to replenish and taking time off is perfect. Sleep is our time off for the body. Dance is our time off for our soul.

To dance weekly is to take a moment to give yourself a gift. Intrinsically dance does not have some ulterior motive – unless you are dancing to impress someone! Dance is an activity which we engage in for the sheer pleasure it gives us. We feel the pleasure because we connect to our body, heart and soul simultaneously. We feel the pleasure of integration. Within this state, when we are experiencing the joy of living, we create more energy. Joy feeds joy and we dance with life lighter and with more freedom.
