Biodanza – a thank you

Love in your life

Biodanza – an invitation

Are you curious to bursting to know who you are? Are you willing to brush your reservations aside and go along with a new experience?

If you are saying yes, you are touching in to a highly valuable asset – the courage to give free rein to your curiosity.

Regular practice of Biodanza helps you become comfortable as never before with being acutely and sensitively aware of the presence of other people.

We all are colourful

On Tuesday, the day after my first Biodanza class in February 2013, I see in hindsight I must have been close to falling in love with living my life, for the first time.

I entered a shop to buy something. Ordinary words passed between me and the shop assistant. As we spoke in formal words, and as we held each other’s gaze, I saw the completeness of our mirrored reflections. I recognised my soul as a reflection of her soul in her eyes!

I will always remember the fresh delight of the shock of this new glimpse into the reality of a person who was, like me, living life fully alive. It was a beautiful realisation which included an involuntary falling away of my defensive self-image. I had abandoned the image of the socially conditioned person I routinely carried in front of me like a cardboard cut-out.

This effacement of self image is an act of humility in which I unconditionally open my heart to acknowledge the heart of the other being. This is an act of honest reverence for the wholesome integrity I am standing so close to. I can easily feel overcome, though not overwhelmed, by the intensity of the other presence.

Ultimately, a mirroring is occurring. Who I am is the “who” I am engaging with. If my self-love is healthy, we are healed by being in this space and time together. Our conjoined presence is similar to, but unlike that rare and unique bond between two lovers. However, here is no mutual exclusivity, no sworn allegiance. Here is a portal to the most precious of states, the unrestricted view of the sanctity of all living beings as seen in the mirror of one.

The validity of this vision of the presence in the round of another soul simply through eye-to-eye contact is a repeatable experience.

The more Biodanza I participated in, the more frequently I saw the living heart of myself reflected in all other hearts.

Creativity flows in dance

If you want love in your life and you want to know love as it exists in every person that you meet, bar none, let the regular practice of Biodanza be a part of your life.

My life changed for the better and forever from 2013! Thank you, Biodanza!

Revisit the spiral of truth

⌛ the spiral of truth ⌛

Past seventy birthdays, my own “Good Monday Morning” echoes back to me from out of a long time-tunnel. I hear many voices, many inflections.

If I pause, and stand in a posture of affirming presence in this echo-space – this many-layered highly personal time-sphere – I can clearly make out the various dimensions of me.

I can then, with a conscious effort of imaginative will, place my hand in that hand of long ago, and truly, madly, deeply feel for the person it belonged to and belongs to.

Here, in the electric eye-to-eye field with my then, and eye-to-eye with me now are highly charged opportunities to take on board four-square life lessons.

Lessons of forgiveness for hurt administered.

Opportunities to burnish newly cast golden girders of self-love.

Opportunities, like great grand portals of opening, to acknowledge, for the fierce first time, bitter-sweet redemption for mistaken beliefs and for mistakes of judgement.

And a chance to finally and fully accept that there is no blame attached to absence then of the knowledge now that leads to peace that passes all understanding
