The goddess, Muse, and her eternal lover, Genius, reside within us. As we tend to their needs and stock the fire of their passion, their love blooms in the fertile soil of our embodied being. Male, Female, both or none, whomever you are, the fruits of your abundant creativity and boundless wisdom are awaiting expression.
The integration of “intellect” and “creativity” into manifesting potential has been a challenging aspect on my journey of self-actualization. I look around and see a world that favors “professionalism”, labels, and narrowing the scope of our research into linear, logical trajectories. Yet, the movement within us swirls in spirals.
In times of turmoil, in times of peace, in times of hardship, and in times of grace, our body and spirit still yearn to be cared for; self-care is self-love. From time to time, treat yourself to a delicious bath, massage, nature time, and of course, dance! Supporting your health and cultivating your inner radiance prepares you to greet the divine within your body-temple.
Loving ourselves is about listening to our body’s’ whispers (and also its loud shouts!), and engaging our creativity to generate the nectar of pure joy.
Since time immemorial human beings have used communal rituals to cope with their most difficult and terrifying emotions….
…Sacred dance is not only about expressing that which is sacred. It is an approach to dance that honors our need to connect with our community and to remain connected to our inner experience.
