What Keeps You from Dancing?

What Keeps You From Dancing?

There is no question that as the summer comes to an end parents are feeling the stress of starting a new school year with so many unknowns.  What better stress relief than moving your body to music? Do you ever feel that tension in your body and just need to move it out?  If you wave your arms, run around, shake your head can you feel that tension ease?  Combine that with music that touches your heart and soul.  Could this be better than holding it in until you explode in anger and frustration?  Could this be better than using distraction that only makes it go away temporarily, only to return with a vengeance or lead to unhealthy habits?  What stops you from dancing?  Fear of making a fool of yourself?  Fear you will be judged?  Has your dancing made a partner jealous?  Do your kids “die from embarrassment”  when you dance?  Can you move through your fear?  Can you let your fear go?  If it leads to a feeling of ease, fulfillment and a closer relationship to your authentic self, would it be worth it?   If ease, fulfillment and  a closer relationship with your authentic self made you a better parent would you take the risk?  Shake your head, wave your hands, move your hips, jump up and down, open your heart, feel the beat.  Human beings were meant for this!!
