How to mark the transition from winter to spring – with dance! The Winter Water Blessing honors the water for nurturing all the life for the growing season to come. We participate in making it happen by sharing our dancing energy.

In order to thrive during transformative times, you are going to need community, ways to shake off the stress, joy, and ways to cultivate a larger perspective.

In one of the dances featured in the article, we draw a little circle with our right foot. That small gesture became so much more than a little circle to me.

Ultimately, I love seasons not because they are each so beautiful (although I do comment on that a lot), but because they help me move with the ups and downs of life. Seasons help me understand how to work even better with creative spurts and time devoted to caregiving or rest. They are a dance, and we can dance with them.
