I’ve been feeling as if I’ve lost my Innerdance mojo. For the last few years I have been honoured to join Katie Holland who offers UK training in Innerdance. This year it didn’t happen. And it felt like losing my connection to the wellspring. I’ve danced with other people’s playlists and travelled the dreamscape with them. Two brilliant facilitators shared their playlist from a session in Peru but dancing on my own is a quieter less profound experience. Today I read two pieces on Substack which reminded me why Innerdance is such a profound experience. The first from Claire Brown was this:
When I danced I closed my eyes. A freedom would bubble up. A blissful state. Suddenly, I was the most alive, most relaxed I could ever be.
And the second from Kate Arends was this:
Perhaps the most important realization my body gifted me was that I do not need to be understood to be loved. My body is my map home to myself. It lives in each of us.
What we desire from the outside world is a call to go within.
Maybe I’ll see you in an Innerdance floor sometime soon.
