DanceMind: Dear Janie -- No need to be Happy

Janie, The whole idea of this blog is to show the ups and down of ballet/dance.  Yes the are joys and yes there are firey moments. The point is that you move through them. You survive when it feels like the end is near. As you get to know yourself better, you can also discover methods and tools to help you through the rough times. When you are "in good spirits and all seems bright" you can discover methods and tolls to deepen that experience. Sometimes it can be as simple as noticing that certain stressors create down feelings. our choice is to stay down or allow it to pass through by simply acknowledging it, or you can take some action to shift it.

So please do not apologize for telling me how you are feeling.  You are welcome to speak your mind on this blog. I appreciate that and so do others.

PS - I am very excited to finally be recording my Shaping From Within Weight Management program. Because I am adding a special bonus to the program fro dancers, I am looking to speak to a few dancers who have weight struggles. This will occur in January - February. If anyone out there is interested contact me directly at sanna@mentalperformances.com. I will put your name on a list and contact you after the holidays.
