Up: [[Five Rhythms Dance]] Created: 2023-09-10 Updated: 2024-07-29 IN CHAOS, I DISSOLVE MYSELF SO I DON’T END UP FIXED AND RIGID. ## Keywords Integrates [[Feminine Principle]] and [[Masculine Principle]]; catalyses sadness. Shadow being explored is confusion. ## Dance Ideas Plant your feet shoulder width apart and bounce to the music. Soften your knees and relax your face. Then your shoulders. Bounce each body part without stopping bouncing the ones that are already going. Take a minute or two for each body part. Keep going until it feels as though there’s a gentle rolling thunder in your body. Then shift your weight from one foot to the other, back and forth, left and right. Dance like a rag doll. Feel your breath rushing through you, hear the pounding of your heart. Shake and let it all go. Imagine your arms are wings. Flap them. Dance wild and abandoned. > [!user] Gabrielle Roth in *Sweat Your Prayers: Movement as spiritual practice
