What is the core essence of trust? Is it faith? Commitment? Surrender? Feeling safe?

Trust can feel simple, without story, and easy knowing there is an unconditional acceptance and friendliness there. Our heart is soft, involved, and open.

On the other hand, trust can feel hard, complicated, and riddled with stories. Questions arise: “What if I get hurt again?” “What if I’m disappointed?” “What if I’m not trustworthy?” Our heart seems hardened, disconnected and closed.

In Dance, it’s easy to see both of these playing out. When I am in a great inner space, I feel safe, trusting, open, and available to play. When I’m in a funk, it’s more challenging at first to connect, feel free, or playful.

This Friday at Dance, let’s co-create safety that gives us strength to trust and surrender, to free-fall into faith, and to be held by the vast arms of each other and the universe.

To trust, to let go, as freedom we vibe with the flow of the cosmic rhythm, being moved and led. Fly, wake up out of your bed of sorrow and fear! I, the one you’ve always known to be pure, is here.
