Irresistible Dance Partner (Part 1)


In order to be
an irresistible dance partner
you’ve got to be willing
to be the center of the universe.
You’ve got to be willing to be
the center of the universe, and say
“Yes. Say “yes” to yourself,
say “yes” to life,
say “yes” to joy
and pleasure and delight.

You’ve got to celebrate yourself.
Know that the whole world
is celebrating with you
whether they actually know it
or not.
Sometimes you can catch their eye
and they’ll go,
“Oho, yes! I am part of your party for sure!”
Sometimes they won’t,
but there’s a whole room full of people
and there’s you,
dancing with yourself,
having the best dance in the room.
The best dance there is,
is those ecstatic connections,
and dancing your life.

And Inviting others
to share your delight,
your joy,
your intensity,
your love,
your spontaneity,
your energy.

Knowing you’re it,
you ARE life;
life connecting with life,
life communicating with life,
life loving itself as life,
and everything around you.

Celebrating, loving, embracing,
feeding, delighting- in.
"Shine your light!"
It doesn’t even enter your head
that there could be anyone
or anything
that wouldn’t want to delight
in that light that you are.

That little two year-old just knows
that everyone and everything
loves her.
She’s just high on life.
She’s just gotten the message
that she gets to live her life!
she gets to be who she is!
It’s her exploration!
It’s hers, it’s hers, it’s hers,
life is hers, it’s hers, it’s hers.
It’s so sweet
and so delicious
and so really yummy.
She wags her tail like a puppy.
Yayayaya!
"Life is good,
life is good,
life is good!”

And life is good to me.
I’m going to kiss life
everywhere I see it,
kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss!
Kiss my own arm,
and hand,
and shoulder,
and my own feet.

Kiss yours!
Kiss your forehead,
kiss the DJ,
kiss the floor,
kiss the speaker,
kiss the water,
kiss the altar,
kiss it all;
high on life.

Being Embraced

A Description of Contact Improvisation Dance Practice: Achieving inner stillness through attention to, and acute observation of our impulses; our bodily experience. Meeting at the point of touch and exploring, through mutual responsiveness, what movement wants to unfold from an authentic, neutral space Curiously exploring that meeting, that point, that present moment, while maintaining full, unconditional presence. Saying, “YES!” in response to the other, without diminishing our self; without compromising our own authenticity. Surrendering to process, letting go of judgment, of intention, of willfulness. Experiencing a spaciousness that allows full acceptance self and other. As we are. Mutually supporting what is happening. And when there are ‘disconnects’, stopping and waiting. Waiting for that full presence to come into each of us again; for that felt sense of, “Ah yes, you are here, I am here, we meet here.” And in agreement, continuing. Joined, yet separate and individual. Connecti...

Where is my Support?

When I am connecting to Source Every thing is my support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When I think  you  are being self-centered I have left  my  center. Nothing can support me when I've left my center. Every thing and everyone is my teacher. Every encounter is perfectly reciprocal. When I lose connection with me I lose connection with you, I feel as if you have left me. But I have left me. When I am  Being You are able to meet me I am able to meet you We are One. The ego is terrified of abandonment, of shortage,  of  our True Nature. It contracts, it runs, it thinks, it calculates, it worries, it accuses, it blames it attacks, it is a black hole that sucks........ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ego thinks, Source Acts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Support is felt when we  know  ourselves as Source And when we know  everyone  and everything as Source. There is nothing t...

Are you exhausting yourself by how you relate with others?

Do you identify yourself as someone who acts co-dependently, as a caretaker, or people pleaser? Do you find that you adjust your ideas Your behavior, your feelings, your actions, your thoughts based on how someone else might react? Do you have trouble knowing what you really want? Do you often feel powerless Or oppressed? Do you have trouble standing up for your needs? Is it hard for you to find your own voice especially in interpersonal relationships? As I was holding a quiet state of presence with a client recently while we were silently connecting through eye contact alone, she was able to notice that her mental processes were working overtime. Reflecting what I perceived in her energy I said, "Its exhausting." And she had the insight that, during this intimate moment between us, when she could have been simply and deeply relaxing into receiving herself, and receiving my embracing attention, instead her mind was frantically working,. It was obsessively searching ...
