Who are you when you are your best self?
Perhaps your real self is locked away and you are living life for others.
It’s time to change and prepare yourself for the next decade of your life.
You may know I am an Argentine tango freak. This year I have set an intention to learn more dance styles, well at least the dances with partners ie Bachata, Lindy Hop, Balboa, Rumba, Salsa. Well it is time I try something new to express my fun self into 2020.
I launched my intention last night when I went to a swing class. I knew the Charleston was the featured dance and even though it’s not on my list, I went anyway. I was not particularly interested in learning the Charleston, swinging my legs back and forth, back and forth and getting puffed, and that was just my knees. Yet after 60 minutes you could not stop me! What a hoot! Bring on the Gatsby 2020 dances, I am ready. I am amazed what can happen when you open yourself to the universe. It always delivers. I could have stayed home and watched Netflix if I succumbed to my swaying thoughts. I now have another fun skillset that can be displayed in high heels and a slinky dress.
I am a totally different person from 2013, the year I left advertising, and yoga ignited my spark. It doesn’t matter what your spark is, keep your mind open and listen to your sensate body and the universe will welcome you.
Perhaps it’s time you tried something new too. 2020 is calling. I’d be delighted to help you along your way. Check out my offerings this year that include yoga, stress reducing mindfulness, and a retreat in paradise.
“So in time her dance got slower
And she looked at all she’d seen
But found gaps inside the places
That she’d never fully been
For she was a human doing
Human moving, human seeing
But she’d never taken time
To simply be a human being”
