Show Notes:
Preet Royce (https://www.beloveandbeloved.com) was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) at 27 years old in the midst of her fast-paced, maintained-by- caffeine, lifestyle. Royce got into action quickly, treating with Western medication and simultaneously landing in a Kundalini yoga class that introduced her to a deeper experience of healing. Through many years of trial and error, Preet has found the deepest healing in living an authentic life—for her, this means shaking and grooving, baby.. all the way to West Africa! (Curious about using dance to heal? Listen in!) Today, she is five years free of Western medication and their side-effects (brutal for Preet), and she thrives engaging with her own healing process.
Weekly Challenge:
“Dance, dance, dance. Dance, dance, dance all night long!” Just kidding. It’s not quite that, but those Steve Miller lyrics have taken my brain hostage at the moment! OK, this week we were challenged by Preet to dance to one song that encapsulates our feelings every day. This can look however you want it to look, including wiggling your toes or shaking your shoulders from bed. If you can’t do that then you are challenged to visualize the movements, firing neurons and still getting the productive effects. I have personally experienced the magic of using dance to heal, so I hope you give this a shot, my friend! Follow me @sheajackie on Instagram for Weekly Challenge updates.
