Silly on Purpose: Day 4: Dance Like No One's Watching | Movement Joy #mindfulness #innerpeace

Welcome. I'm so glad you're here. I've loved dancing as long as I can remember, so if you know me, you knew this one was coming. But I'm not talking about technique. I'm not talking about counting to 8. I'm talking about the dancing you do when you are 100% sure nobody can see you. Hairbrush microphone, dish towel twirling, moves that have no name and never should. Today's tool: one song. Full commitment. Please take a breath in and think about a song that's going to make you move. Pick a song that makes your hips twitch before you even decide to move. Hold. And as you exhale, commit to looking it up on YouTube or wherever you listen to music and smile as you imagine dancing along later on. When you do this, close the blinds if you need to. Then go all in for the whole song. No half dancing, no polite little shoulder shuffle while you check your phone. Arms, hips, face. Make the faces. Movement loosens what's stuck. Music slips right past the part of your brain that's busy keeping score. And somewhere around the second chorus, you'll catch yourself grinning like a total goof. My song with my mom was Funkytown, and boy, if you haven't watched that old-school video, that will get you laughing. That grin is the medicine. And if someone walks in on you, grab their hand. Congratulations! It's a dance party now. I'm sending you so much love. If there's someone that comes to mind that could use a little laughter, a little peace, please share this with them. And please subscribe to keep returning to peace in under 2 minutes a day.
