![]() For the last few days I have had an image of some huge energy or creature rising slowly up out of water. As I "see" the image in front of my eyes, I also feel dancing in my body. The music that moves my arms, feet, hips and head plays in my mind until I take the time to hear it on a speaker. I never know what my favorite song will be - some inner DJ decides and presents it to me. Today, as music was building in my system, the vague image of a creature rising up coalesced into a picture of a whale breaching magnificently. I could feel its power in my muscles as if I was rising up. This blog is the result of that energy. So is the dancing. It's been a long time since I felt dancing in my body. In 2012 I told a co-volunteer that I felt I was wearing the red dancing shoes. The shoes that are part of a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale. In that tale, it is the shoes that are dancing and the wearer is obliged to keep up. Somehow it felt that there was frenetic energy in me that was trying harder and harder to keep up but I was not ever finding rest - the shoes I was wearing would not stop.
Fast forward to October 29, 2020 when I suddenly had no energy to even get up the stairs. My breathing was labored, my heart beating all over the place, and my leg muscles did not seem to work. I felt sicker than a dog. I ended up in ER as my heart was monitored for three hours. I was shocked! In Covid times that's not what I thought they would find. I couldn't even put me - Bodhanaa - in the same thought as - heart problem. The symptoms have persisted but I am much stronger. Stronger in resting, stronger in laughing, stronger in some new upward rising expanding energy Energy where the red shoes are no longer on my feet. Todays songs are Cyndi Lauper "Time after Time" www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdQY7BusJNU and Tones and I "Dance Monkey" www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0hyYWKXF0Q
