  • "One of our highest expressions as a human being is to move. Movement is a really powerful way of processing everything." - Brian Bergman
    Brian believes strongly in the power of dance, and the ability of movement to help heal. Have you had similar experiences?

    I was a dancer my whole life and now MS has ended that part of my journey. Today I enjoy watching others and feeling the music dance inside of me. I just want to share, if you can move, don’t miss the opportunity to dance. Your body will remember it and your spirit will thank you for it. Beautiful video!

      Thank you for sharing your experiences with us Shelagh. We are sorry that your condition prevents you now from dancing. At the same time you now encourage others to move/dance while they can, that is so wonderful. We hope this video can give you strength and do something wonderful for you - touch your spirit. Sending you warm hugs and wishing you strength, Justine and Michael. 💚

    Wow, I have just scrolled upon this video. I have entered into a new self awareness … I don't dance … my body is quite contained. How do I start … and where …. ?? "Dance through it … ignore the mind … I'm more than that". I think I'll start dancing in my backyard. Perhaps mirror the wings of a butterfly. The earth can be my dance floor!!

      @Grace Bennion - YES! With the grass under your feet, and the sun/moon light on your face, dance. There is no right or wrong. Embrace the unique movements of your own body. xx

    I need to practice dancing to free the mind! It is so true when we dance we do not think!

    • @ReflectionsofLife
      @ReflectionsofLife  Před 3 lety +1

      @Paulina Waas - And I loved Brians advice about forgetting what other think of your movements - just dance your own dance. x

    Beautiful and yes yes yes to dance! I used to dance all night as a way of escaping from myself fuelled by drugs, but since 2007 I found conscious dance through 5 Rhythms then with Movement Medicine, and it changed my life and continues to do so, I am now an Apprentice with the School of Movement Medicine. I love dancing, I love being able to dance with anything that I am experiencing, sometimes its wild and firey, sometimes flowing and soft, there are so many millions of potential dances inside us all. Its amazing what is created when two or more dancers come togehter - its a powerful and beautiful. Thank you for spreading the love of dancing and building bridges between us

    As a teen I used to dance a lot in the disco. But for me it was (and still is) an extension of the music I love, it's a way of living the music, the mood with my body. It is probably quite different from what is shown here. I couldn't dance without music and I couldn't dance to music that doesn't touch me. I miss this so much, today I only dance in my kitchen from time to time. 😶 It is not the same it doesn't set free the same amount of feelings, of energy. Thank you so much for your videos, most if what I have seen corresponds to my way of thinking and it feels good to know people like shown exist.

    • @ReflectionsofLife
      @ReflectionsofLife  Před 2 lety

      Dancing is a beautiful way of allowing our body to release emotions and feelings that we keep bottled up inside. Turn up the music, whether in the kitchen, or in the shower, and have a little boggie. Start there. And see what flows :) 💚

    Dancing is just like any creative, expressive art form. Even someone with 2 left feet can dance, it's for everybody. It's such a release. I've always loved dancing, from back when i was a child. Dancing moves the spirit.
