My Personal Renaissance Begins

Dear dreamer,

I feel like I’m in the beginning of a personal renaissance—a renewal of my vows to my creative practice, to dance, to my body.

And as I’m moving through the beginning of this transformation, I hope to share my reflections with you in smaller but more frequent chunks.

So, today I’d of course like to announce my offerings for this month, and also share a poem I wrote during the most recent module of an advanced dream work program I’ve been taking. That module was a couple weeks ago, and for me, it set in motion a kind of creative energy that I had been longing to re-engage with for quite some time.

It feels good to be back.

Homecoming

I think we’re just at the beginning now

Both a familiar call

And a hint of the new

But It’s a long distance swim,

So pace yourself, and settle in

Play with your power

Learn your rhythm well

Let yourself linger in wide open shallows

Womb-like waters

That twinkle

In young hearts and old eyes

Exchanging gems with friends

You’ll know when the time is right

Don’t second–guess yourself

Light the fire,

Share your catch

Go back to the start,

Take another lap

around the spiral

And always begin the dance again.
