Hidden in darkness, in the stillness it quietly waits there for us. With trust, with patience, with a brief pause to take deep breath, we will find exactly what we need.<\/p>\n<p>Cliff and I used to take a group of kids called Pathfinders on backpacking trips in the Sierra mountains. One morning I woke at dawn and took myself on a little adventure before everyone else woke up. I came upon rock face that I decided to scramble up. Before I knew it, I was climbing something much more difficult than I had ever done before without a rope. There was no one within shouting distance and I was much higher up than I could safely jump down. I couldn\u2019t see my way up or down. Panic was just on the verge of welling up and swallowing me, when a little mantra came and took me by the hand. It said, \u201cTrust the rock.\u201d Just that. \u201cTrust the rock.\u201d I looked and reached up\u2026 and sure enough, there was a handhold I could pull myself up with. Then my feet found tiny resting points as well. Now from my new vantage point, and with \u201ctrust the rock\u201d vibing through my awareness, I managed to find a new set of handholds that I previously couldn\u2019t see, and then another and another. When I might have plummeted to a calamitous fall, my presence of mind -preserved by the gift of that little mantra \u2013 carried me to the top of the rock face.<\/p>\n<p>Years later, when I was laboring with each of our three children in natural childbirth, a different image came to carry me through the excruciating pain of the labor. As the firstborn, Shankar\u2019s labor was by far at the craziest pain level. While I was facing<br \/> increasingly longer, vice-grip contractions, the image of a large, serene white bird came to me. My body and my body consciousness never stopped sensing the grinding torque of labor, then the explosive pain at the end when it took forceps and the doctor\u2019s hand to pull the baby out safely. All the while though, my higher consciousness floated above on the wings of that white bird gliding smoothly through the heavens, with the sea of pain crashing far below.<\/p>\n<p>One way I find that magical reservoir of possibility in Nia with to play with \u2018the pause\u2019. We\u2019ve heard of a \u201cpregnant pause\u201d \u2013 a moment in someone\u2019s speech that puts us on the edge of our seat waiting to hear what\u2019s about to tumble out next. An article called \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/content.time.com\/time\/magazine\/article\/0,9171,149453,00.html\">In Praise of the Humble Comma<\/a>\u201d by Pico Iyer contrasts the comma to the period, the \u201cfull stop\u201d. It\u2019s the humble comma, the brief pause in the sentence, that holds the mystery.<br \/> The pause is something we can easily find in any movement transition. For example, when I swing my body upwards, there\u2019s a fleeting moment\u2019s pause before the body begins coming back down again. That tiny micro pause is a moment of stillness, just as a blink of our eyes, is a tiny moment of darkness in the midst of our lighted vision.<br \/> Last week in my Nia classes we played with pause, we stretched the pause, and we noticed how much movement can find in one tiny pause. It was if each segment of music was filled with an infinity of tiny silences between beats, and each of our movement sequences was punctuated with infinitesimal still points. When we came to musical pause, I would sometimes invite the students to give a hand slap. The next time we came to that pause, I asked them to give two slaps, and then 3, 4 and even 5 such punctuations at increasingly fast speeds. All of a sudden, that tiny transition moment seemed to stretch longer and longer \u2013 like time seeming to go slow speed during a car accident \u2013 only this was a GOOD slo-mo! We were finding the infinity of motion within the millisecond of pause.<br \/> Nia teachers generally lead complex, choreographed routines that take me months to memorize. Last week, I pulled out an old set of songs, including a tune that I hadn\u2019t danced in years. As the song started to play, my mind groped for clues to the choreography. There I was with all my students waiting, in a stretching, yawning pause, waiting intently for my memorized movement to come back to me. None of the choreography came back to my memory. Nada!<br \/> I could have frozen up. Instead, I stayed RAW \u2013 Relaxed, Alert and Waiting: the body still, the emotions at peace, the mind at rest, and the Spirit open. In the pause of blanking out on the choreography, I let myself ease into the darkness of the unknown. Sure enough, my feet began following the song\u2019s rhythmic pattern in a way they hadn\u2019t done before, and my hands found new ways of moving to the melody. The music changed, and another dance pattern emerged. There in the pregnant pause, a whole dance \u2013 never done before \u2013 was waiting for me to let it out into the light\u2026just as my babies had emerged from the darkness of the womb.<\/p>\n<p>The infinite pool of creative potential is always there waiting for us, deep within. That\u2019s the place I go to when I don\u2019t have a clue how to get through what\u2019s next in life. In fact, it was by going there that I just wrote this letter to you!<br \/> Moving in Stillness and Resting in Joy with you,<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/mlsvc01-prod.s3.amazonaws.com\/f9afa1f3101\/226cc733-3e1e-490d-a708-46abc28481c8.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"96\" height=\"41\" name=\"ACCOUNT.IMAGE.916\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" \/><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/stillandmovingcenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/31c48093-acba-412a-9098-f583955ad13c.jpg&#8221;
