Beautiful human,
Dancer of your life,
Of your soul,
I know you feel tired,
I feel your exhaustion.
Wasn't this dance meant to liberate you?
To uplift you,
Grant you freedom,
Joy and fulfillment?
Didn't you choose this dance mindfully,
In deep connection with your truth and your soul?
Wasn't this supposed to be a dance on your soul's path,
A sacred dance?
And now you wonder why this dance feels like survival.
It feels like coping,
Not like living.
It doesn't feel like being on track,
It feels like using all the energy to at least not go backwards,
To not stop dancing or moving at all.
Hey beautiful human,
I feel you.
And before I share with you three reminders to support you on this path,
I love to tell you this.
You are doing great.
I honor you for keeping showing up,
For keeping dancing.
I honor your strength and trust.
You wouldn't still be there if you wouldn't trust that it will get better with time.
Your trust will be rewarded.
You know why?
Because trust is knowing.
A knowing of something your mind can't grasp yet,
But something you're already preparing for.
Life will find you again.
Lightness will dance with you again.
Thank you for not giving up now.
In this world,
This is the greatest gift you can give to yourself and to us.
Do not give up.
Do not stop trusting.
Thank you for inspiring us with your resilience and daily choices that keep you going.
Even if you're tired,
I appreciate you.
And now I'd love to share with you three reminders to support you on your journey.
The first reminder is this.
Every sacred dance is a dance of survival before it becomes sacred.
Every sacred dance needed to be practiced before it became of the body that danced it.
James Pearson says,
Practice what you love until it becomes service to the world.
You are in that practice.
You are practicing so you don't only wear that costume of the sacred service,
But so you can breathe its rhythm,
Speak its language,
And so you can be fully embodying its purpose.
The second reminder is this.
Always differentiate between the good survival dance and the bad survival dance.
The good one is the necessary survival dance that eventually becomes your sacred dance.
And the bad one is the one that feels like survival because the dance you are trying to practice isn't actually of you.
It's not following your truth,
But someone else's.
You are dancing to someone else's rhythm.
This dance will never become your sacred dance.
It becomes your prison.
If you're dancing on your soul's path,
It might still feel like survival because your soul's dance isn't of your body yet.
Your body is still learning how to be that dance,
How to integrate it,
How to express it naturally.
But eventually you get there.
It will feel of you,
Fulfilling you,
Not exhausting you.
My third reminder for you is this.
Your body won't forget what you already practiced,
Worked through,
Perfected,
Only because you take a break.
Allow yourself the inner possibility to stop dancing,
To quit the survival pattern,
To find inner permission to imagine the quit.
If the dance is of you,
If it's a dance sprung from your soul,
You'll never lose the longing to continue practicing it at some point.
But if you give yourself permission to take a break,
The ways of how you approach that dance might expand.
New versions of your dance might find you.
Gentleness,
Self-care,
And intuitive flow might find a home in your body.
Let the dance be fun,
Let it be messy,
Let it be different every day,
Let it mirror your life.
The sacred essence of it will find you,
Not through your rigidity,
But through intention,
Surrender,
And trust.
Thank you,
Beautiful human dancer of your soul,
For taking care of your dance,
Of your body,
That sacred vessel,
And for not stopping to follow your longing.
It's sacred,
Remember.
If you are looking for a way to get into deeper conversation with your inner dancer,
I recommend to you my premium track,
Called From Survival Dance to Sacred Dance.
I can't wait to see you there.
That's it for now.
All my love to you.
Yana
