Hello My Dancing Friends!
We
have a wonderful practice in Nia called "Body Gratitude". "Body
Gratitude" is a practice were we sense our body, notice sensations of
pleasure and of self-healing that has occurred in the moment. We then
give gratitude to our body by speaking out loud what we sense. For
example after my Nia 5 stages practice or after a Nia class, I say out
loud "Thank you Body, my lower back is relaxed.". Or "Thank you body,
my breath is deeper and fuller.". My body hears this gratitude and
creates a loving relationship that leads to optimal health and well
being. Plus it feels good to talk to my body this way!
As we step into Thanksgiving week and we reflect on all we are thankful for, I'm inviting us to give gratitude to our body - say it our loud! Nia's philosophy is "Through Movement We Find Health" and our body loves to move, dance and play, and there isn't a better way to make our body happy and show our appreciation. Join me in a dance of gratitude all week. Such a wonderful way to stay youthful and no better way to thank your body! See you in class!
And my Friends, Thank You for all of your love and support, and your passion for Nia. You fill my heart with love and joy every time I dance with you. I am very grateful!!
