In ballet today I realized- again (after I forgot!) that it’s all about intension…. not tension! When I’m dancing with effort and tension it blocks my ability to flow. It creates this dillusion that by working really hard and pushing through the self created resistance that somehow I’m being really productive!!! Oh dear, that’s silly! It’s hard not to do though. I know that if I just have clear intension and move with ease then everything really is more efficient! There can be space for flow and for my energies to create the form and flow.
As I write this I totally see how I forgot this realization as I stepped out of class and into the world. I have been catching myself thinking ‘I have soo much to do..’ which just cretes these resistances that I then have to ‘work harder’ to overcome! It creates tension and then that becomes my reality.
I know that I can decide to switch my reality back to flow and possibilities and creation. So, I’m switching it! There we go. All switched! Now I’m in a different reality and I can reconnect to why I’m doing this all anyway!
I have space to be thankful for all the beauty and connection that I experienced today. Wonderful people, sharing and creations. Letting go of ‘all the things that need to get done’. Then there is the space for time to slow down. The ‘things’ can create themselves, as after all im not really dping it anyway! All that is important is each moment. Thank you.
Waiting for the subway… rolling out some tension!
