I don't want to forget that ageless part inside of me that wants to play and have fun.
I want my wonder be awaken and alert and inspired by what I see, what I hear, touch or taste. I enhance my senses and want to indulge into the pleasure I receive from anything comes to my attention.
I like the lights that dance on the sea when there's the sun. Or when the sun touches the leaves of a very green tree. Sometimes it happens that while I'm focused on the colors, the wind starts to move the tree and it goes as a breath, as a dance, or as it's waving at me. Hello you, I see you.
I start talking with the spirits of the trees and we have such a joyful conversations.
The trees invite me to have a different tempo, a different pace. I start walking slowly and enjoying the sound and the rhythm of my feet touching the Earth. Trees are so stable and invite me to their stillness. I feel so unstable close to them. The speed in my head goes unnecessarily fast. I find answers in their stillness and mine.
I use to go to a forest to walk my dog, I want her to receive the nourishment of a green space, pure air, a smell of green lives. The trees are so huge here, they found the combination of nutrients and environment that make them thrive so mighty.
I want to receive same treatment, I want to be mighty tall huge luxuriant as they are here.
What does a human being need to be like that?
Taking care of my body, my mind my emotions and my spirit.
I take care of my body with movement and rest. I choose healthy food, less chemical contaminated environment possible, I move my body as it is designed, with pleasure and enjoyment, I challenge my mind with stimulating games, something that stimulates my curiosity and wonder. I like to express my emotions in my dance. The music helps me to get in touch with some of them and then I choose some and dance until my body tells me it's time to rest. Sometime the music in combination with the dance help me to express what I am not able to do with words. With movement I release that indescribable feeling/thought/emotion/pain, in the end I feel so much better.
When I move into the music I feel energy flowing in my body, I feel strong and energized. I feel connected to something that is universal and seen by others around me too, we share the experience with no expressed explanation. We talk the language of the energy body and the dialog is a magic exchange from a deep level. I see the real beauty in everyone around me.
Looking at my calendar I want to put moments into my day that bring joy
and playfulness as part of nutrients of the day.
What do you use as your joy nutrient?

Beautiful words that flow like the wind...thank you, Rossella!
