Many of us work a day to day job or have that daily grind that we are so wound up in...then the unimaginable happens. We lose ourselves. We lose who we are and who we used to be. That personification of our essence. Our creative mind becomes overwhelmed with the daily tasks and we forget to take the time to care for us! Our body, our soul and our magic.
Todays society has taught us that being politically correct is a necessity, we have become so wrapped up in pleasing others, minding our manners and worrying about all else besides who we are as an individual, and as a whole we are paying the price.
We are run down, exhausted, out of patience, steam, drive and left in a blunder of wonder, if we have the time to wonder.
This is why it has to be ok, to have a release that is not an addiction. The coffee, cigarettes, alcohol and drugs, the food, the vices that can physically harm us are those the we have become dependent on to deliver us from the cages of the lives we encircle daily.
Many folks use fitness, walking, yoga, meditation, time spent in nature. All of these are important for us to lose ourselves in. What is most important is that it is something that speaks to your soul. Something that makes you feel alive at the end of the day. Something that sparks your imagination, fills your body with peace, puts your mind to rest and something that just lets you let go, without any ties, without any bars, without any cares of who is watching...this is why we have the freedom of Dance.
Dance has become a universal language throughout the world. It is used to express certain emotions that we can all understand without saying a word. Spreading and sharing joy through music is a time old tradition and what a better way to put music to use for the body than to dance? Dance as you will, dance as you won't, move the body through all the pain, joy, sadness, heartbreak, elation, excitement and anticipation that you are feeling, let the dance leave the bothersome emotions and thoughts on the floor. Let us find joy again within ourselves, within our bodies, within our minds and souls through the expressions of dance. Find your inner peace, through movement of whatever type that makes your heart sing. TURN UP the MUSIC and let it all flow...this...this, is how we find freedom through Dance. Any age, any gender, anything at all, goes, with music. Just dont be afraid, to let the rhythm help you find your peace.
