Learning to dance, Learning to be free of self.

"I need freedom now and I need to know how to live my life like it's suppose to be" - Mumford and Sons

Yes, how I feel exactly and why I dance, do yoga, meditate and etc... to free myself, create space and go someplace new, not in theory but in my body!...My physical existence.

I am learning more and more that my body is my purest mind, what I physically create through movement is a direct reflection of my inner self. Our bodies is an intelligence holding our emotions, sensations, pains and joys. When my body feels freedom, I am free. When I go someplace new, I have created something that has not yet existed, I am fulfilling my divine role as a creator in this universe.

Through dance I am learning how to better express feelings that are inside me, express these through my body...the purest medium of art & expression. And through this I become more expressive in life, more creative and free.

Freedom is not some external condition, it is an understanding, a feeling, a lightness...something that can be cultivated through practice. Free is what we already are and always have been, it's the awareness of your self as you are, as opposed to the thoughts you have about yourself.

Dancing brings about a non-thinking and suddenly...there I am, joyful and at ease with all things.

Peace to you all,

Mikey
