Balancing Mind and Heart

Learning a new dance

I did ballet when I was a child. I remember loving the exhilarating feeling of dance despite how strict and rigid my ballet teacher was.

I believe she truly wanted us to do our best when we had our ballet exams, and that’s why she pushed us to be the best we could be.

I revisited my love for ballet as an adult for a few years again in my early twenties. I did adult ballet classes and my love for dance was reignited.

After doing ballet again for a while I eventually left and now I’m finding myself wanting to learn a new style of dance. This new style of dance is just dancing in ways that feel good to me.

I feel more interested in intuitive dancing and just dancing for fun now- rather than for getting good at it.

I’m learning a new dance in life at the moment. The dance of balance between my mind and my heart.

A new dance of inner freedom and self-expression flows through my veins.

A new dance of balance in my life is a welcome new beginning.

My story is unfolding in a more authentic profound way. Truth leads the way forward, while my heart guides me to dare to express myself, to dare to trust, and to dare to be myself.

The new dance I’m learning asks me to be less rigid in movement. It asks me to drop all fear and just move in the ways that feel good.

The new dance entices me to be as true to myself as possible, to free flow like a beautiful river, and to be as open and vulnerable as I can.

It asks me to express myself with no fear of judgment and no attachment to outcomes.

This new dance feels exhilarating and terrifying at times. It feels natural and foolish all at the same time.

This new dance is happening in every cell of my body. It is the dance of heart and mind uniting as friends.

The dance of the pure joy of life is expressed in movement. The dance of the cycles of nature.

I’m learning to dance like I’m truly alive, uninhibited, and completely free to express myself.

I’m learning to dance the dance of my soul.

I’m learning this new dance and in the process, I’m learning just how beautiful it feels to connect deeply with myself and open up to channel inspiration.

To dance along with life as if it were the song of my destiny, surrendered, and open. Free to be as I am, always evolving, ever-changing.

Messy and complete.

Free and at peace.
