Movements are energy in action.And movements in a dance can heal and transform lives for the better.
How?The physicality of a series of rhythmic or structured movement like in a dance creates a chemistry of changes to integrate the body mind and soul in a flow gradually towards health and vitality.

All of creation has a purpose to its being.
It charts its course towards it.
If we are able to understand the reason for life is to be…
As it is meant to be
We will be more tolerant and inclusive
We will think before we speak
We will choose to see the good and nurture the good.
What we choose to notice life presents itself in many ways
As the way we choose to see the world
The world mirrors itself to us.
See the world with wonder and awe
Choose to respect and be responsible
Cultivate a sense of respect gratitude.
For the infinite abundance called life!

All is never lost
Until you stop
Seeing the world
With eyes of faith
For faith is in you
To build and sustain
For a lifetime
So trust yourself
Witness the miracle
And keep the faith
All is well

Story : A social media forward.
Three trees in a forest were talking about their dreams.
First tree said, I want to become a beautiful chest & lots of precious treasures should be stored in me.
Second tree said, i want to become a magnificent ship to carry great kings & queens safely across the ocean, even in storms.
Third one told
I want to become the tallest tree in this forest. My height should reach the sky that I should think I am near God.
After some time people came to the forest to cut the trees.
They came near the first tree and said this seems like a strong tree. We will sell this to a carpenter who will make boxes. The tree became happy that its wish is getting fulfilled.
Second tree they decided that it would be suitable to build a ship. The tree was happy that it would finally become a ship.
They saw the third tree and didn’t think of any great use . So it was made to logs n stored.
The carpenter made a box out of the first tree to store hay in a shed.
Second one was made into a small fishing boat.
The third tree was lying as log n stored.
Thus all their dreams were shattered.
Time went by. The trees had forgotten their dreams.
One day a man n woman came to the shed. The lady delivered a baby.They put the baby on the hay in the box made of the first tree.. Immediately the tree realised that it is carrying the greatest treasure on earth.
Few years wentby. Some people were voyaging on the small boat made from the second tree. A big storm started n the tree was worried that it could not save the people it was carrying. At that time one man in the boat said to the sea, be calm. The sea became calm. The tree realised that it is carrying the king of all kings.
After some days a man was carrying the logs from the third tree & walked the street. The people on the way were ridiculing him . They reached a small hill top & the man was nailed on the log & made it stand . After three days the tree realised it was very near God as the man was Jesus Christ.
The dreams of the trees were fulfilled, but not in the way they wanted .
Similarly all our dreams will be fulfilled. May be not in the way or time we planned. But it will happen.
Dream big. Dream good.
Hope is what takes life forward.
Translated from a tamil forward by Anjana
According to an old Native American legend, one day there was a big fire in the forest. All the animals fled in terror in all directions, because it was a very violent fire. Suddenly, the jaguar saw a hummingbird pass over his head, but in the opposite direction. The hummingbird flew towards the fire!
Whatever happened, he wouldn’t stop. Moments later, the jaguar saw him pass again, this time in the same direction as the jaguar was walking. He could observe this coming and going, until he decided to ask the bird about it, because it seemed very bizarre behavior.
“What are you doing, hummingbird?” he asked.
“I am going to the lake,” he answered, “I drink water with my beak and throw it on the fire to extinguish it.” The jaguar laughed. ‘Are you crazy? Do you really think that you can put out that big fire on your own with your very small beak?’
‘No,’ said the hummingbird, ‘I know I can’t. But the forest is my home. It feeds me, it shelters me and my family. I am very grateful for that. And I help the forest grow by pollinating its flowers. I am part of her and the forest is part of me. I know I can’t put out the fire, but I must do my part.’
At that moment, the forest spirits, who listened to the hummingbird, were moved by the bird and its devotion to the forest, miraculously they sent a torrential downpour, which put an end to the great fire.
The Native American grandmothers would occasionally tell this story to their grandchildren, then conclude with, “Do you want to attract miracles into your life? Do your part.”
“You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. As each person does that, the world saves itself.’”
If someone asks your help remember this story.
A lovely read I simply had to share. I am doing my bit…
Every bit matters!
Change & Creativity
Evolution happens in the changes that are a precussor to transformation.
As humans much of our creativity is often boxed in association of concepts and experiences and their correlation.
A conscious unshackling of patterns of thought brings forth new and different ways of seeing & thinking. Every now and then take a pause, acknowledge the diverse new associations for it breeds creativity.
A deliberate action that reaches out far and wide to step out of conventional thought patterns is never easy especially as humans like to feel safe and secure in comfort of knowing of a stability and at ease at rest.
Change can be unsettling and startling for most to accept, to digest & acclamatize in the new shifts.And yet to create new spaces for light is to step up in the gamut of creativity there need to be, a dare into the unknown that explores dimensions beyond.

I was drawn to watch this beautiful share this morning.
It is a capture of an every day phenomenon of Water drops merging into a water body.
So much beauty in the ordinary
The profound in the simple.
If we only took time
To notice and discover
We will know
How little we see
Of this dance of nature.
Savvy
And watching it in slow motion video….
Pure Fascination.
As the brush strokes the canvas
It captures the artists essence
From the whispers of the heart
To the directions of the mind
Different strokes may appear
With the same thoughts
Different thoughts may arise
From the same strokes.
What whispers will art capture today?

When the language is colours
You paint a powerful imagery
As you draw from your emotions
Colouring the canvas
Listening to your thoughts
Speaking in the silence of words.
Evoking movements of the brush
Responding to the inner flow…

The Desert Wisdom
With the singing sands
Below the feet
Where the winds blows
Tuning in to the changes
Slipping in through
The sands of time
Dancing in the dunes
Is the wisdom of the flow
Nothing is what it seems
The desert tests the spirit
To transform the being
The desert teaches…
The many ways of survival.
Through the wisdom in change.

The paper is where it is
On it the pen moves
Driven by the hand
The fingers of writer
Holding the pen
Waltzing on paper
Shaping thoughts
In a flow all its own.
And the soul & spirit
Of the writer imprints
For eternity…

We are beings of light
The light of the divine
Interconnects us all
Exchanging energy
Of the Universe in the flow
In our body our hands
Play a part in the exchange
Reaching out to help heal
They are Conduits of Divinity
In the fluidity of the flow
Helping heal and align
And manifest in prayer.
In the realms of spirit and soul
Divinity channels itself
Through portals of our being
In the awareness of Oneness.

Circle of life
Creation is the reason for evolution
To evolve is to be inspired
To create some more…
One man’s creativity is another man’s inspiration
One mans inspiration is another man’s creativity
Each an expression of the uniqueness of the creator.
Such is the circle of life & living.

You can never give from an
empty cup.
So keep refreshing
knowledge and understanding
Make sure to breathe easy so
that you are not getting
engulfed in trying to find
solutions for another.
Exercise equanimity and trust
yourself to deliver.
Most importantly take care of
yourself.
Enjoy the work you do!
And give your very best.
It will certainly bring results.
How to keep refilling your cup…to stay updated.
Many ways.
