Dance lessons
Due to nature of this blog where each post follows the previous, the sequence of lessons ends up being reversed. It is essential to start at the beginning, therefore if you decide or would like to follow along please be sure to scroll down to the first post called dancing with God.
In the process of developing this course I have spent considerable time sorting through the enormous amount of data and information that is available, as well as the processes necessary to achieve the desired results in a way that the average person can relate to. Having attempted to change my life numerous times, I have experienced the frustration and failures that are produced when these processes seem to fail.
Today I was given additional information to share with you, much of which is underlying information and processes that are required to understand before you begin.
1. In order to walk in spirit, you have to first balance and heal the body, and then the mind and emotions. If you have serious physical issues, then get support for yourself. The physical body is essential to support the mind and emotions. The dilemma is that these are all intertwined and connected. Which means we must work on all parts sometimes simultaneously. This creates a dichotomy for most people as it may seem impossible to achieve. We will work on this issue.

2. Your spiritual, physical and mental vibrations are extremely important! Each must be in alignment and balance. We will work on this issue. (This is the music portion of dancing with spirit)
3. Healing your past, and releasing past conditioning is the third component we need to address before success can be achieved without struggle. We will work on this issue.
So as you can see it involves much more than simply reading a book, watching a show, attending a workshop, saying some affirmations, and magically your life changes. Many programs books and tapes will tell you that you can dance, that it is possible to dance like a professional, that you have the ability, if you only believe. I can tell you for certain that it takes effort, practice, multiple lessons from a professional, and an understanding of the process.
In summary it is a simple basic dance. Integrating and applying what I am going to teach will enable you to dance with the Elegance, Grace, Beauty and Joy that is your divine right.

Dance Lesson 1
Over the course of the lessons we will examine some new and some rather old concepts. Each contains elements of the steps required to Dance with Your Soul (Source)... this first step is critical. As I have learned and my teachers have said many times... You have to understand and be able to apply the basics of dance in order to progress.
In order to create new things, in new ways, you have to clean up the old, and get rid of (release) those things that don’t serve you, (they only prevent moving forward). This includes emotional energy and attachment to our pain and suffering we experienced as children.
A powerful part of that is awareness, often we become aware of our past experiences and try to process them as if our mind can resolve the pain and suffering. Conventional teaching is we have to talk about and feel all of our emotions, sometimes for years. I know people that have been in therapy most of their lives and still haven’t resolved their issues. Perhaps they have not found the right place to tap.
Here is a story that explains what I mean.
Once a giant ship’s engine failed. The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure out how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom. Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed!
A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars."What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!"
So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill"
The man sent a bill that read,
Tapping with a hammer...................................$2
Knowing where to tap................................$9998
So it is not that the process that is wrong, perhaps it simply means that you have to know where to tap.Knowing how to release the past is vital and can save hours, days, even years of struggle.We all have past issues, we all have childhood pain and suffering, some more intense, some ingrained deeper, and some truly devastating. What we choose to do with it and how we deal with it is what makes the difference between staying stuck and being able to move into valuing ourselves enough to have what we want currently.
Trying to move emotional trauma and childhood fears is nearly impossible using just the mind and your thoughts, when you cannot control your mind consistently.
Step one is learning how to control your own mind.
This is why many people have watched the Secret and other positive programs and still struggle with being unable to make any of it work. I have been there and tried it. I can tell you it is nearly impossible. Your mind and your own thoughts are your greatest challenge to overcome, and yet they are the most powerful tools to create what you want.
Try holding a fire hose that is turned on full force, one man cannot do it himself, it takes several people to control the force that is flowing through the hose. You cannot manage nor control your thoughts, until you take control of your mind. As you are reading this, even now your mind is arguing with the validity of these statements, unless you know and understand the power and truth of what I am saying. Until you agree and are willing to do the work, you will struggle and be frustrated.
Secondly, Each thought creates emotion, emotion then rises up through the body to the conscious mind, which then generates additional thoughts and feelings related to this emotion, creating an endless loop that drags you into the swamp of emotional chaos.
The Secret to controlling your mind is being in the now.. anytime ANY thought rises in your mind that doesn't support what you truly want, the way to stop your mind from going there is to tell your self to be present, to BE RIGHT HERE, Right Now, and keep doing that until you can maintain that state at any moment.
Once you are able to achieve this on a regular basis you will be Present and will be able to move gracefully.. for your own benefit, it is to your advantage if you don't progress to the next lesson until you Master this one...

Dancing with God
.
Watching two professional dancers move elegantly around the dance creates the illusion of one unit moving effortlessly. In essence there are many processes and elements happening during this dance that are not apparent to the average person. To understand how one can dance at this level, one must understand the underlying work that goes into learning how to dance.
In ballroom dancing both the man and woman must know and understand all of the elements of dancing, they must know and understand timing, rhythm, foot, leg, hip, arms and shoulders, and head positioning, and they must stay in time to the music, and with each other. The dance is also designed to correspond to the musicality of the song, (or the man must be aware of the song and its elements in order to decide which moves he will do next, in order to produce a dance in alignment with the musicality of the song.)
In addition they must be in synchronicity with each other, the man must know and understand how to lead the woman, and the woman must know and understand how to interpret the signals the man is giving her throughout the entire dance.
So this seemingly effortless dance is composed of innumerable elements, efforts, thoughts, body movements, agreements, hours of practice, lessons, and many, many mistakes that have to be worked through and worked on in order to produce elegant beautiful product that you finally see.
I have never met anyone who has the ability to simply walk out on the dance floor and dance at this level without many hours of training and practice.
I have met numerous people who wish they could dance like that, many of them have shared with me that they simply don't have the ability to dance. (“I have two left feet” is a common statement). I can only tell you this, most people start at this point including myself. The first time I stepped onto the dance floor I had no idea what dance was being played, or where my feet, hands or body were suppose to be. Like a newborn baby I had to learn to dance step-by-step. In time I learned how to move, the steps required, how to lead a woman around the dance floor, and then progressed to musicality, advanced level steps and movements, and finally achieved success, and now I'm a proficient dancer.
How does this relate to manifesting or creating what you want?
Actually it has everything to do with this seemingly difficult and unachievable goal that most people are struggling with today!
Many people that I know and have met, will read a book or watch a movie about this process, and then step into the world and try to Dance with Life (Dancing with GOD)! In short order they find themselves unprepared and unable to move with the music of Creation and the Creator of life!
Frustrated and disappointed they simply turn back to where they were previously, and either give up completely, blaming the fact that what they read or saw simply does not work, or buy another book or program that promises to be the answer that they have been searching for all of their lives. I myself have been there and done that. In fact I have spent a lot of money on programs tapes, CDs, and books that were based on similar principles and philosophy, that produced little or no results for me. What I have discovered is that the problem was not in the books or tapes, but in my lack of understanding and knowledge of how this all works in the Dance of LIFE.
In order to create what you want, it is essential that you learn how to dance and move with Life and the Creator of Life. It requires knowing the steps, the music, the elements, and listening to the lead that GOD is giving, for in the Dance of Life Dance we are danicing the feminine part as God leads us. This is what we will be working on. What follows are the lessons required to learn this Dance.

Harmony
Watch this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pU9hWiYjVTY
This is harmony of voice, instruments and souls... watch their eyes and see the Joy and Love that they have for each other as well as what they are doing. IN the moment, present and open.
It is that simple... and can be that beautiful. So stop. look and listen... If your life is not like this everyday its time to do some house cleaning!
As the wise one said -
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
