Yet, amidst the sadness, fear, anger and despair, there is also a glimmer of ‘something new.’ When a crisis as all-encompassing and global as the pandemic, and let’s not forget climate change, sweeps the world, it opens a crack in the matrix of ‘the norm’ for new possibilities to emerge.

Life experiments with ways to maximize what it creates for survival and longevity. It not only keeps the elements, plants, minerals and wildlife that enhance Life’s overall vitality and resilience, it also keeps the primal movements that support relaxation, fluidity, openness and pleasure. Over the years, I have had the great joy of sitting for hours watching the movements of nature and human nature. I watched water turn into a mucky pool for bugs and critters, and air become stale when not allowed to move naturally. The same is true for us. When there is a restriction in one’s movement, body systems slow down, and the natural energies given to us so freely from the Universe and the Earth are restricted by the blockage. Fascinated by body movement, I was taught the secrets of how to increase energy through the primordial, meaning original, movements of nature. Nothing in nature is linear. It flows, spirals and undulates in patterns that weave living systems together. As our bodies are expressions of the Elements, the same movement principles that govern nature govern our bodies.  In this series, I guide you through simple and effective processes that enhance physical, mental, emotional and spiritual flow … Read more
