Here's what I've experienced since I've started dancing again:
✨ I've connected to a part of myself I haven't felt in years. I feel more like me, and that is both comforting and deeply empowering.
✨ The thrill of learning something new: I basically smile and giggle through class as I learn to shuffle - ball change and cramp roll (in both straight and swing timing!)
✨ I've got more energy! The joy and creative energy dancing brings is rippling into other areas of my life where I now feel more alive and present and capable.
Now how does this relate to you?
Well its simple, really.
So often we focus on the things that are draining our energy. We talk about strategies like creating boundaries, saying no, doing less.
** Equally important is the question: what gives you energy? **
What lights you up and makes you feel so radiantly alive? What puts the pep in your step and makes you want to get out of bed in the morning? What is something you can look forward to especially in the moments of life that are challenging?
