hola Reader!
β
tldr: went dancing for the first time in 8 months, almost cried, want to get better but i'm not a night person ... any advice?
β
i went dancing on sunday night for the first time since may (which already feels like a win for this hermit leaning projector and tired taurus who considers herself an "afternoon person"!)
and something really interesting happened ...
β
this experience showed me something i've had an inkling about (and probably why i've been resisting it for so long)
... this isn't going to end up being just a fun activity or hobby for me
β
i'm honestly still processing everything that surfaced for me on sunday, but it feels like a sacred practice of feminine embodiment and expression
pure joy and magic all wrapped into one
when i'm dancing, i feel so deeply connected to my body, heart, and soul (plus it's really good for my anxiety because it's impossible to be thinking of to do lists or future catastrophes hehe!)
β
but getting out the door to experience that part?
that's where i feel like i'm in a catch 22
β
i feel like i'm currently wrestling with:
β’ my bed feeling way too cozy after 8pm
β’ bright lights feeling like a lot for my sensitive soul (and eyeballs!)
β’ a plethora of excuses like:
- too taurus tired
- projector low energy
- not in the mood to people (keeping it real!)
β
someone at the dance asked how long i've lived here, implying i must be really good by now
and cue the slight shame spiral
because here's the truth: you only reap the benefits of practices that you actually practice!
β
so even though one of my dreams is to look and feel like the π emoji with the red dress and move like i've been dancing my whole life
i'm fully aware that ain't gonna happen if i stay in my pajamas at home!
β
so, my fellow sensitive souls and comfort seeking humans ...
how do you handle evening activities?
β
any magical tips for getting yourself out the door when you know you'll love it once you're there but your body seems to have been trained to get into cozy tea + reading mode after the sun sets?
or advice on how to trick myself into being a night owl again even now that i'm basically a 30 something grandma?
or any fun inspiring stories about making it through the discomfort and finding something magical?
bonus points if you found your forever passion or met the love of your life at a hobby you almost didn't start HAHA π
β
honestly i read EVERY reply so i am all ears if you have any words of wisdom for me!
with love and "look at me sending this newsletter late because i'm practicing taking my naps later in the day to get used to being awake at night" vibes,
ps. probably gonna drop a voice note about this whole experience inside the WOW membership tomorrow - because finally ripping off the bandaid and going dancing after 8 months? definitely a win worth celebrating! π«

Wanderlust
someone asked me if i "did anything fun this weekend"
and i couldn't think of anything out of the ordinary to start with
and then i realized I LIVE AT THE BEACH FULL TIME
i basked in the sunshine like a lizard on my rooftop, floated in the ocean, played beach volleyball, went to a dance social, ate a lot of tacos
... and that's "just" a "normal" weekend for me so it definitely reminded me how blessed i am!
