After a 10 day residential, transformational teacher
training I received some positive feedback… “I love how you own your shit” I
feel to share my insights from my own personal experience and transformation
over the 10 days and years of practice (and continuing practice)….
Nobody can burst your bubble of bliss but they can
trigger your response system which can adjust your feeling of natural bliss and
guess what, you have the power to become aware of these responses…..judgments,
anger, sadness, inner conflict and general mind projections can all be changed.
This is taking responsibly (owning your shit) .…the ability to respond.
The mind is an amazing part of the human physiology,
over the years of early development its filtration systems form and depending on
different eco-factors (environment, family, society, schooling, friends) you
will have a unique response system (possibly reaction system) as an adult. Everyone’s
internal body mind mapping is different; the mind filters, categorises and sends
information to the body creating an emotional response and thus a response or
reaction.
The great news is if your eco-factors could have
been improved as a child and your filtration system could be better as an adult
you have the choice to become aware and change it. You can choose happiness
through becoming aware of your thoughts, your emotional system and your behaviour.
Next time some information from the outer world
rocks your inner world and you feel off centre, not in your natural state of
bliss and contentment bring some awareness to the feelings you are experiencing,
take a look your behaviour and examine your thoughts. Sit alone for a while,
breath into your heart and ask yourself “is it true what I am thinking, how is what
I am thinking making me feel, how am I behaving and do I have the choice to
change?” Examine what your mind is filtering and projecting, breathe into the
heart and ask “if I saw this situation from the heart how would it look &
feel, how would I behave & what would I be saying”.
Keep breathing and keep moving down into the heart
space, know that the world can be experienced and perceived from here. The aim
is to realign the body mind back to a natural state of happiness, bliss, contentment.
If you are feeling off centre know that the body mind is letting you know it is
time to retreat inwards to become aware and re-balance.
Keep practicing coming back to the breath and heart,
over time you will begin to notice that things that once triggered your system
no longer do. You are slowly resetting your body mind programming (neuro-linguistic-
programming, NLP) where it is needed. The breath and awareness are powerful
tools for you to take responsibility for your happiness, well-being and sanity.
It is up to you to use them J

Yesterday I tried
this super green smoothie that I found online as part of a winter detox,
personally I will use it as a healthy booster. It’s really tasty with all the
flavours coming through it is very refreshing & pretty pulpy. I halved the
recipe for an extra-large smoothie, I found that blending all the ingredients together
except the spinach is easier, then adding the spinach to the mix and blend.
Ingredients (all organic if
possible):
2 pears 1 avocado, flesh scooped out 1½ cups / 35g firmly packed baby spinach 1 cup / 250 ml water 2 tsp. minced ginger 1 ½ Tbsp. freshly-squeezed lemon juice 10-20 mint leaves (to your taste)
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients except the spinach in a blender, blend until smooth, then add the spinach, again blending until smooth.
Enjoy!

The last two weeks have been very calm and peaceful, prior to this although I was happy and positive fear was driving me. The fear of lack was creating panic and a lot of adrenaline to get me up working morning, noon and night was rushing through the system. I felt I was aligned and working well but having stopped for the last Biodanza training weekend I came to realise my body is exhausted from tension, stress and adrenaline.
This morning my body aches and I have a headache, I feel it
will take some time for the body to recover from over use of the adrenal glands,
hyper tension and stress over years of allowing this to happen. I know a
physical shift and a negative mental belief has shifted so I will not default
to the panic and adrenal setting which is the usual case.
Sometimes life or the experience of it has become truly painful
until I really listen, wake up and make the changes!
Transforming base metal
(fear) to gold (love).
Biodanza, Ars Magna.
(the magnificent art 23rd– 25th Jan 2015)…..
FEAR; Fear has been living my life, making the decisions.
Fear of lack, fear of not being good enough, fear of time, fear of human
beings, it has been running me, a stress that has run through my blood and
seeped into my bones. If fear is the sting, then love is the balm.
LOVE; Love is not something that can be obtained, love is
something that is to be experienced, to run through the body as life, Love is
Life, Life is Love. Fear is the guard, the padlock. Recognising and welcoming
the fear to transform it with the surrender to love.
From base metal (fear) to gold (love), it is through the
dance, the group, the music, and the movement that love can begin its
transformation.

Starting to
wake up and question my lifestyle after the last Biodanza training weekend,
realising I live with high levels of stress in my body when I work, even when I
am feeling positive a certain level of tension, fear and stress are driving me.
According to
Pathologist Arthur Jores (1901 -1982 Germany ) there are 2000 diseases common
in humans, 1500 of which are due to lifestyle.
Learning to
find a balance is a challenge, but is key to feeling happy and healthy.
Biodanza lowers stress levels and helps to regulate the body, dancing on a weekly basis can contribute towards raising happiness and bringing a sense of peace.

I watched
celebrity big brother last night, lots of conflict, abusive behaviour towards
one another which apparently makes goods viewing because let’s face it if
everyone got on in peace and harmony there would really be nothing to watch
according to the mind.
As I watch
people tearing each other apart & colluding my mind starts to make
judgments about others behaviour, likes, dis-likes, “ooo that woman is poison”.
I sit there both fascinated and saddened by the human interaction &
conflict.
I feel sad
that it is a challenge for a group of people to be put in a somewhat unnatural
environment without their usual human comforts for a short space of time and
actually get on. People operating from personality, from their model of the
world, their beliefs and values so strong that they cannot accept the others.
Operating from a place of conflict & not being able to see one another.
I fantasies
about getting them dancing Biodanza together, removing their daily masks and
body amour to have a real meeting with a human being who has a different view
of the world, connecting through the heart through the universal language of
music & movement.
Questions
start to arise in me…..Has humanity/society got so individualised, so
separated, so isolated and neurotic that living closely with each other is
impossible?
How has it
become that a group of people have become so attached to their values that they
cannot accept another’s, even for a short period of
time?
Now don’t
get me wrong I am not saying I have this all sussed and sorted myself, I have
lived in communities and shared houses my whole life and I still struggle to
find peace within myself whilst doing so but it is getting easier over the
years as I keep questioning myself, my thoughts and my behaviour.
Overall I did enjoy big brother as I find human behaviour a fascinating subject.
