Never stop dancing xo 😘

Data indicates that ANY exercise (including dancing) is better at treating depression than just taking an SSRI.

So, if a doctor tries to give you medication without offering other solutions, please make sure you ask questions. Your health and happiness may literally depend on it.

“Dancing is not just getting up painlessly, like a leaf blown on the wind; dancing is when you tear your heart out and rise out of your body to hang suspended between the worlds.” ~ Rumi

Rumi's words paint a vivid picture of dance as a profound, transformative experience. He contrasts the effortless movement of a leaf with the deliberate and emotionally charged act of true dancing. To Rumi, dancing isn't merely physical; it's a spiritual journey that requires vulnerability. It's about exposing one's soul, tearing open one's heart, and rising above the physical body. In this state of heightened awareness, the dancer transcends the ordinary and enters a liminal space between worlds, a place of profound connection and spiritual exploration. This powerful imagery reveals dance as a sacred act, capable of unlocking hidden depths within the human spirit.

What does Rumi's quote suggest about the transformative power of dance, and how can it be applied to your own experiences with movement or creative expression?

Free your expression
However it chooses to show up
In the moment
In the music
In the magic
On the shortest day in the darkness of the night we shall shine ever so bright. And find peace in the dark.
