I was struggling with something of a conundrum the other day ... and I just couldn't seem to see a clear way beyond it.
My energy was flat, I was feeling disconnected from Source and, truth be told, things were appearing less than "rosy" to me from my (disad-) vantage point.
I knew I needed to do something to bust out of the rut I had slipped into ... and I needed to do it quick !

There are any number of tools you can use to break free of this situation ... and 2 quotes came to me ...

The first was a Tony Robbins quote -
"The higher your energy level, the more efficient your body.
The more efficient your body, the better you feel
and the more you will use your talent to produce outstanding results"

The second was an old saying that goes:
"Work like you don't need money,
Love like you've never been hurt,
And dance like no one's watching"

Well, I dug out some CDs of albums I had listened to (and loved) in my pre-teens ... and danced around my kitchen on a cosmically-embarassing scale to some truly cheesy songs !
In fact, it got to the stage where the songs got more and more uptempo and I got less and less mindful of what I was doing or how I looked - it was no time at all before I was singing at the top of my lungs to more and more songs ... and having a whale of a time - PRICELESS !

So next time you can't get to the gym or out for a run ...
DANCE AND SING AND WOOHOOOO FOR ALL YOU'RE WORTH

Who cares if it doesn't look or sound cool - the Universe will be dancing, singing and woohoo-ing right along with you !!





Luv ya !

This is such an awesomely uplifting post! Thank you! I feel like dancing for joy today, in thanks for the many blessings this community has brought!

Great idea Paul......dancing always make me feel good.....

this reminds me of a blog I had earlier this year....

mbshepherd's posts / Bill Phillips Transformation

stay strong........and dance, dance, dance........brett

I do this a LOT. "Music/Dance" is part of my Spiritual Cardio routine. You are sooo right! Just raising your vibration level gets the ball rolling in the other direction. I do daycare from home and you can ask my kids... how often do we listen to music and dance? LOL At least once a day!

I always look forwrad to your insights. Thanks for sharing.

I Love It!!!!

I really like that old saying, it reminded me of my Grandmother, I can see Her dancing right now! Thanks for the great post. Terry

That's so awesome!!! Music is so powerful and can lift spirits! You should see my when I'm driving around in my truck... I sing at the top of my lungs and dance around lol

Great post!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ummm....can we get a video of your dancing? THAT would also lift my spirits! But I can also dance...usually around my kitchen table dancing to Mexican Cumbia music. I LOVE IT!!!! Thank you for the great post!

I feel happy already picturing you going crazy....you lean, mean dancing machine! LOL

Awesome!! I love the songs from when I was younger- thanks for the idea! I already embarras my daughter singing and dancing in the car....so why not! LOVE YOUR SPIRIT!! : )

I love that concept, I actually have a variation of one of those quotes at the bottom of my page

I never heard of the "work, like you do not need money," (maybe, God is sending me a message...)

I will add that one to my quote....Thanks

Music and especially dancing reallt life the spirit and raise your vibration. I KNOW this and need to post it on the refrigerator so I remember to DANCE instead of EAT!

THanks for the reminder!
Love your posts!!

I love this thread!!! The Power of Music!! When you think about it...Music can bring out many emotions!! I often will listen to certain songs while I am writing, to help me get in tune with my heart and the spirit. Music is truly such a gift from god!!! Thanks Paul for posting this!

How Awesome!!! I find that the moments when I truly catch a glimpse of joy and freedom is when I'm immersed in music and song. Now, I only sing out loud when I'm in my car with the music up so loud I can't hear myself...... but, it is freeing to the soul.

Loved this post as it confirmed I am not alone in my newly found antidepressant. I find I can dance doing elipitical or the bike too and I am certain people think I am on drugs at the gym.....and I do not care one bit either. Thanks for posting this.

I hear music aloud and yes sometimes dance it feel so gooooooooooooooood!

LOVE IT, friend!

What a wonderful and uplifting post!!! Thank you it's so true!

Love it, love it, love it! Thanks!
