Shaking & Moving & Dancing & Drumming

Do you move?  Do you bounce?  Is it our wildness that makes us naturally move this way?  This is a message I am passing along because it is so juicy.   Are you born to move?  Be sure to watch the video to see the science experiments on playing different types of music for babies — and how they react to each one — so amazing:

“I have a friend who went to India last year and spent 9 days in an ashram with a guru, whose message was about moving to the beat. In her stay she was required to stand in the presence of dance music, with a rhythmic beat, and shake or move for 8 (!) hours daily. She said that her body released ‘tons’ of mucus, that she didn’t even know was there, during her 9 day stay. She also lost 12.5 pounds. She is in her 70s, and losing weight, or moving for 8 hours straight, is usually not done by people in this age bracket.”

I also have another wonderful friend who is 74 and dances every Friday night until after midnight. It is the highlight of her week. She just sent me a video and, frankly I was very surprised at the information it contains. Seems TPTB have been busy, banning dancing and drumming, in many countries around the globe. Could this repression of dance and drumming, which re-connects circuits all over the body, be one reason why people have trouble awakening? What better way to gum up the body than to ban natural movement.”

There is something that every human alive should think about at this juncture, which is that fear doesn’t move. Have you ever noticed that? When you’re afraid, it’s the absence of movement. And how can you stop something that is so good for us? Every time we dance there’s a cascade of serotonin — a cascade of joy and bliss.             Shiva Rea

 

Here’s the video. The first half is a very interesting history lesson about this, the second half is music and dancing.
