Dancing Through Transition

Transition in life.  Cha-Cha in Nia.  Similar & both have the same purpose, to take us from one step into the next, from one movement into the next.  In the Cha-Cha, it is done with one step forward then one step back.  In life, a transition can often look & usually feels like one step forward then one step back. The Cha-Cha is an extremely simple step.  However, many people trip themselves up & get confused.  As I have said for almost 16 years now, how one does Nia is how one does life.  Can you let go of your thinking, "I can't do this, this is impossible, I'm frustrated & overwhelmed" habit & just go with it?  Go with the simplicity.  Go with just what's put in front of you & work with it & IN it with Dynamic Ease & Grace.  What is your habit, do you just not let yourself have it & GO FOR IT?!  Or do you? When a transition, a stumble, a fall, a missed step in any form is put in front of u, do u see & feel it as this or do you freak out & automatically assume & tell yourself that you can't do it?  "It's just too hard!"  Optimist:  someone who figures taking a step backward after taking a step forward isn't a disaster, it's a Cha-Cha!--Robert Brault Love yourSelf.  "Friendliness towards oneself becomes friendliness towards another."-Harry Palmer, founder of Avatar. Live your life.  What do we possibly gain from throwing frustration, overwhelm & "I Just Can't Do It!" into our lives, into ourselves, in our WAY?!  Just think of all of the energy wasted on that, ick! Love your Body.  Love yourSelf.  Love your Life.
