About the Fluidity of Life and WaterDance
Life brings continuously so many changes to our physical matters that we sometimes hardly follow. We feel shaken up and frightened, we try to cling to what we are used to. We have little faith in the ups and downs of Life. We leap at the flow of the tide and resist in terror its ebb & flow. After a great blow or crisis, we settle down to the new condition of things and adjust ourselves. We are sure that the new situation will now be for eternity, until our personal world reinvents itself anew. This natural process is endless, relentless and fascinating. But it is also exhausting, as we deep inside fear that the unknown future will be less than the present. So we resist and insist on permanence and duration.
Some of us believe and experience the spiritual statement that the physical matter is the lowest, most unimportant and unreliable aspect of Life, as it is permanently changing and dying. But how flexible and adaptable will we be when destiny takes away what we once thought belonged to us? No wonder that we complain about pains in our muscles and joints. While we seem to tighten up with age, the body is simply reflecting our emotional and mental state of being.
Still, isn’t it amazing how fluid and shape-shifting the physical world is in reality? Nothing that seems solid is. Everything is hurrying into some other form, even concrete, even stone. Our human body is made up of 70% of water. The brain and heart are composed of 73% of water, the lungs of 83%. The skin contains 64% of water, muscles and kidneys 79%. Even the bones are made of 31% of water. Deep in our cells, we experience on a daily base the fluidity of Life. Therefore, if we start from the premise that the architecture of the human body is based on an evolutionary process of oceanic origins, then we understand why our tears and our sweat contain salty water. Even as embryos we evolve 9 months in the salty amniotic fluid, floating like little sea creatures in our private oceanic environment. Does this not mean that we all carry in our bodies an inner sea that we can activate and stimulate?
WaterDance is in that sense a moving and dancing art that proposes the exploration and stimulation of our natural fluidity and non-resistance in the physical body. WaterDance is an aquatic body- and dance-work, using breath, apnoea, movement, and the continuous and whole embrace of warm water. This reactivates the cells in our body, reminding them of their innate capacity for fluidity and flow.
The fact that we are virtually weightless in water provides an additional support to let go of physical and emotional tensions, as well as holding patterns. In WaterDance, many sequences are based on wave- and snakelike spiralling movements, which are stimulating the flexibility and energy flow in the spine, and thus in the chakras. WaterDance receivers describe sensations of expansion and presence beyond the limit of their skin. Some would call it a rising of the Kundalini energy or Prana, the fuel that keeps the subtle bodies activated. Others perceive vivid colours, like shades of blue, violet, green, red and yellow. Again others describe deep states of meditation in a silent breathless place, where there is no thoughts and only Light. In any case, receivers generally experience an increase of their energy, joy, and inner calm.
If the atmosphere of a session is carried by the flow of Consciousness, Sensitivity, and Mastery, the receiver and the giver can both travel on a journey beyond the usual time-space continuum, where such modified states of consciousness support a different approach to life that could be more fluid and more creative…
