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.

HEALING THE WOUND OF NON-SUPPORT

     We must receive support before we can ever give it Many of us were born and raised in homes where we did not receive the support we really needed in order to feel safe, seen, grounded, and valued. For whatever reasons, our parents and families and perhaps even our communities were unable to give us enough responsive attention for us to anchor a feeling of being empowered and supported into our Beings.   Because we did not receive this support for our very Being, our essence, we came to distrust ourselves and those around us. We became unable to receive support, even when it was sincerely offered. We came to feel that we were a burden and that we didn’t deserve to have support or feel supported. We tried to make it through our lives by being totally self-sufficient. Since we couldn’t receive support, we reasoned, maybe we didn’t need it.   We managed for quite some time in this way. But we found that we were unable to feel totally at ease with ourselves and ...

What's MY calling?

  I woke up the other morning,   once again acutely aware of the fact that I was still searching for a TITLE for myself. One that fit my calling in this life. The title, or term ’Coach’ has always been an option, but has never been a clear fit for me. Adviser, consultant, mentor, teacher, trainer, hostess, facilitator… all these seem to hold an aspect of what I’m about. So I once again my mind suggested and toyed with all of these terms. But none seemed to feel just right. Just like in the story of The Three Bears , all these terms seemed too hot, too cold, too big, too small, too hard, or too soft. I didn’t want to settle until I found a title that felt, Just Right . And none of these comfortably fit me.   So once again I sat with some disappointment and frustration, unable to nail a title that I could sit inside of with complete contentment.   Accepting my failure with a deep sigh, I let go. I let go of the striving and surrendered. I dropped into a quiet stillnes...
