My favorite job so far is...The art of dancing life WE 195

Greetings dear readers, today I give life and love to my blog by participating in the WE 195 of @galenkp who begins with this reflection that undoubtedly resonated with me:

It was a favorite expression of Theophrastus that time was the most valuable thing that a man could spend.

-Diogenes-

Dedicating my time to the work I do, I have spent it with pleasure, since today I am gradually seeing the fruits that I am sharing below:

My favorite job so far is... and has been, teaching plastic expression classes for children in conjunction with body expression that I have made it part of my work. The arts in terms of dance, music and visual art, is what I have been doing both in my personal and professional life in which I have been teaching children and adults for 20 years.

---

I have been including body art in my work for some time now, applying it to harmonize my work with the children, and to avoid getting bored with the usual ministerial contents and demands.

---

---

I have achieved this creative impulse through Biodanza, a practice that I have been doing for 10 years as a personal development that happily for me has transcended the barriers of the show and spectacle, because Biodanza has connected me with the essential through my natural movements, awakened my affective and creative potential in an intimate way that I have put at the service, managing to create activities that have given me many satisfactions enriching my work.

Biodanza is: Bio (Life) Dance (Movement). A practice that is performed through individual and group exercises, accompanied by specific music and slogans with which harmonizing experiences based on emotions are experienced, which allow to increase mood, reduce stress, strengthen the immune system, improve social relationships, develop personal skills, work emotional intelligence and creativity, bringing happiness and wellness.

This practice has nurtured my life awakening my consciousness towards the restoration of my psychophysical health, thus feeling so motivated by the benefits it gives me, I decided to train as a teacher of this system created by Rolando Toro Araneda teacher, psychologist, anthropologist, painter and poet, a man with a great sensitivity for life, whose goal of creating this body practice, in principle was to humanize the education and health system, after working as a teacher in a rural school and in a psychiatric center.

So it was that after doing my supervised classes (internships), attending my weekly sessions, delivering and presenting my thesis, this year I received my certification as a Biodanza teacher. Then fulfilling all my requirements with much enthusiasm I have begun to take my first steps teaching these classes, making a dream come true which was to bring Biodanza to the educational system especially to those who work with children, "teachers and school workers ".

Already with this certification, a few months ago I made the proposal to my co-workers to offer them Biodanza, who were very motivated, so we already have 4 sessions of sessions, which has been very rewarding for me to prepare the class for them, watching the enthusiasm of my colleagues, daring to do something different for them, taking advantage of the same workspace, where one day a week after dispatching the children, we have lunch, we take off our shoes, we live together and create a harmonious environment to dance our lives.

This short time of four sessions days later have manifested the following words to me:

• I have felt relaxed.
• It is nice to look into your eyes.
• I experienced many emotions that I can't explain.
• My back and neck pain went away.
• I have spent the week with a lot of sleep.
• Everything makes me want to laugh.
• I go as indifferent to problems and trades.
• I am being cool.
• I'm feeling cool and eager to go on.
• I found a new hobby.
• I've found a new hobby.
• I've found a new hobby.
• I've found a new hobby.
• I don't like it because I cried a lot.
• I feel a nice energy, I do like it.
• I don't know if I'll come next time.
• I don't know if I will come to the next one, it moved me a lot of things.

These are testimonies of my co-workers, who, meeting once a week with Biodanza in 2 hours, have experienced through their natural movements with themselves and others, an infinity of emotions and sensations that in summary demonstrate an intimate process of human integration and affective reeducation.

Nowadays, the teachers of the city, due to their convulsive personal and work life, do not take the time for an adequate self-regulation, relaxation and encounter with themselves, vital factors to generate a change of consciousness that influences a better quality of life. That is why giving yourself permission to do Biodanza or another practice that motivates us to be in harmony and well-being is of vital importance to recognize and manage our emotions in terms of our overall health.

It is worth mentioning that because of being attentive to the sessions and taking care of the participants I have not been able to take more pictures of the other exercises that show part of the dynamics of a Biodanza session, which from now on together with my work as a teacher in plastic arts, will be my profession par excellence that I will do with pleasure in the spaces where life designates me.
