Dancing Away the Blues!
When facing a difficult time in your life, the first reaction is probably to curl up into a little ball and hide. But what if there was a better way? Something that could not only distract you from the pain of the situation, but could also strengthen your heart, body and soul. Exercising has so much research behind it pointing to the mood elevating benefits. And dancing has the added elements of improving memory and cognitive functions. But more than that, it takes you out of your solitude and puts you with others who share your joy and love of music and movement. Dancing is my refuge and my savior. It has never deserted me no matter how dark the skies look. The same cannot be said of some of the people who made the greatest promises. And so I not only teach Belly Dance Classes but I take dance classes and go out dancing every chance I get. It makes me feel stronger both emotionally and physically. And somehow makes everything a little brighter 🌞
