Renewal
Day 51 of 52 Days: Red Crystal Serpent
The body is constantly in a state of renewal. Our body renews itself and changes in many ways all the time. Our skin renews itself every 28 days. Our entire body renews itself every 7-8 years. I don’t even want to try to figure out how many times my skin has renewed itself in my 60 years of living on this earth, however, as far as my body totally renewing itself every 7-8 years…that would mean that I’ve had a new body close to 8 times. Wow! That’s an awesome fact!
Wouldn’t you think there would be some discomfort associated with the body and all of its many systems constantly in a state of renewal? Yet my awareness is not normally at the cellular level, so the changes happen organically, naturally.
The body takes care of those things without any prompting. It’s the day-to-day types of changes that happen…the stresses, the environment, the political unrest, the emotional outbursts, the mental anguish…these things can be uncomfortable. Yet as the picture says…”LIFE BEGINS AT THE END OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE.”
One of my intentions during this second half of my life is to know courage and speak the truth. Makes life pretty darned interesting — definitely not boring. Discerning what one’s “truth” is as opposed to what one’s “opinion” is can be a fascinating study. I find most people have opinions and quite often those opinions have nothing to do with “the Truth”. The Truth is not a revolution — it is a revelation. And revelations often come at the price of comfort.
Today I am renewed. My body, my mind, my heart, my spirit — unbound and free. Now I am living life fully. Today I dance.
Ageless Grace (R)
Day 19 of 60. Yesterday, obviously, was Day 18.
I feel ageless most of the time and I have always had a graceful balance of which many people have commented. That probably has alot to do with why I love to dance…it comes so easy for me. For that, and for my own ageless grace, I am forever grateful.
Denise Medved, well-loved, internationally known Nia Trainer has developed Ageless Grace (R). Denise is bringing this fabulous movement modality to my studio — Sacred Space Studio. Ageless Grace in Sacred Space…I like the sound of that! Here’s a little info:
Ageless Grace® — 21 Simple Tools for Lifelong Comfort and Ease
Ageless Grace® is a fitness and wellness program created by Denise Medved. The program consists of 21 simple exercise tools designed for all ages and abilities. These exercises, based on everyday movements that are natural and come with ease, focus on the healthy longevity of the body and mind. They have creative, imaginative names, so they are easy to remember, and simple to do at home. The movements are designed to be performed in a chair, yet they can be done on a bed, standing near or behind a chair, down on the floor, or standing. Almost anyone can do them, regardless of most physical conditions.
Practicing the Ageless Grace® tools for just eight to ten minutes a day will help the body function with optimal efficiency, and with comfort and ease throughout your life. It’s never too late to begin Ageless Grace® — and it’s never too early to start!
I’m excited to be hosting Denise and Ageless Grace (R). If you’d like to learn more about Ageless Grace, check out Denise’s website at www.agelessgrace.com.
The workshop at my studio is on Thursday, March 3 from 6-9 p.m.
