Sometimes words are not enough, we need music to shift our emotions, release our emotions and increase our vibration.
In many shamanic societies, if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions...
"When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?"
Storytelling, singing and dancing, all amplify our souls. We constantly practice all of these joyfully with new borns, toddlers and then we stop.
I love Fred Astaire’s famous quote “Dance is the hidden language of the soul”.
Sometimes words are not enough, we need music to shift our emotions, release our emotions and increase our vibration.
I use music to feel better. I listen to music, I dance, I dance walk (with my dog) and we play live music at our Archer K Music events to lift the vibe of our community. Music can improve our mental health and dis-ease.
When I had most dis-ease in my life I had the least music in my life.
I love singing with thousands of other strangers at the footy, the chants and the corny club songs make me feel great.
Remember the best moments you felt around music, movement or singing. Use this memory when you need an uplift in emotions.
In a world where digital, virtual and AI encroaches our lives, let’s continue to do easy things to enhance our human experience.
Our Wellbeing wheel includes the dimensions of music and dance. It is another element that contributes to our brain and physical health.
The image in this post is of me in a boat, where Italian music was blasting. I felt so alive. The music made me remember my father and I felt his spirit with me, I felt his smile.
Bring music back into your life.
