疾病是缺乏活力的惰性狀態(inertia)。
而療癒則是動態的運動狀態(movement)。
如果你讓身體動起來,你就會改變。
你天生就是注定要移動的:
從流動(flowing)變為斷奏(staccato),
從混亂(chaos)變為抒情(lyrical),
再回到所有運動的源頭:靜止(stillness)。
如果你允許自己的心被觸動,
對所有的風險和冒險敞開去感受,
並讓它們一直持續進行到完整,
你就會改變。
眼淚會變成微笑,
憤怒會變成擁抱。
如果你喚醒自己的靈魂,你就將會改變。
深入自己的特質。
看著自己將他們表現出來,
掌握精通它們,
你就可以自由地存在,
自由地感覺,
自由地思考和
自由地扮演你的獨特自我。
運動中的靈魂
會在身體的各個層面上進行自癒和擴展,
從惰性的層次進入到狂喜的意識境界。
對靈魂敞開,轉化就會發生。
運動是我的媒介,也是我的生命隱喻。
我知道,如果我允許一波能量完成它自己,
它就會產生全新的一波能量,
事實上,這就是我所了解的全部了。
騎乘在這些能量波浪之上,
就意味著加入整個宇宙的舞蹈,
正如但丁所說的,
這是一股能夠「震動日月星辰」的力量。
—心靈舞蹈大師 加百列‧蘿絲
Disease is inertia. Healing is movement. If you put the body in motion, you will change. You are meant to move: from flowing to staccato, through chaos into lyrical and back into the stillness from which all movement comes.
If you let your heart be moved, be open to the risk and the adventure of feelings, letting them work through to completion, you will change. Tears turn into smiles, anger into embraces.
If you awaken your soul, you will change. Engage your characters. Watch yourself act them out. Master them, and you’re free to be, feel, think, and act as your distinct self.
The spirit in motion heals, expands, circles in and out of the body, moving through the layers of consciousness from inertia to ecstasy. Open to the spirit, and you will be transformed.
Movement is my medium and my metaphor. I know that if a wave of energy is allowed to complete itself, it yields a whole new wave, and in fact that is all I really know. Riding these waves means joining the cosmic dance that, as Dante says, ‘moves the sun and the other stars.’
