Move Your Body to Let Spirit Move You

In yoga we often greet the rising sun with Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations).  This sequence of postures allows the body to move stagnant energy out of the joints.  The spine warms up, the body builds heat, and the heart center becomes more open.

Body movement is one of the easiest ways to engage spirit.  Movement is something we hear a lot about in most spiritual circles.  We talk about moving energy, energy moving during healing, movement of spirits between dimensions, but often we overlook the simplest….. moving our own bodies.

Physical body movement can be anything from drumming to dancing, yoga postures to QiGong, Circle Dancing, to free flow body movement.  You do not have to be a skillful dancer to put on a bit of music and let it take you to a meditative space… Move your voice, sing… Move your hands (mudras), move your thoughts (contemplation).  There are many ways to move, and when we move we invite spirit into the physical, the tangible, and we can deepen our connection this way.

What moves you?  Where do you find movement in your spiritual practice?

 

You are Loved, You are Beautiful, You are Divine!
