DANCE OF THE LIMBIC

Yours may be as an enchanting waltz, smooth and appealing. It may be as a hip-hop crump, a flowing, jerky pause, from one movement to the next. Is it posible our dance is a jazz quartet, focused on the bass, deep and intense. Yet, motivated to give each instrument it's moment to shine. Knowing that you have the ability to socialize in harmony with members of your friendships. A ballroom dance, perhaps. You and your significant other allowing each other to demonstrate ease of love expressions. You have each others backs, finish each others sentences. Although you rhythmically turn in opposite directions, you forward face each other at the exact same moment in time. The emotion, the motivation, the dance.

The structure of the brain that is concerned with your emotions and your motivation for your life, the limbic.  This limbic sytstem is inherent in each of us. It seeks to connect, to give and receive love and to be happy. It is sufficiently called a system, as motivation and emotions work together and best when in harmony. Our thoughts towards ourselves and others are often motivated by how we feel, at the time, making harmony key. This should be practiced on a daily basis.

When nutrient efficient, the limbic system flows. When nutrient inefficient, the limbic system stumbles. Practice may not always make perfect, but it certainly can make a huge difference. And if perfection is part of the routine, well, then, PERFECT!!
