What Is Freedom

Imagine trying to define freedom to someone who has never had it. They have no frame of reference. What would you say? One would most likely speak in negatives, like what it would NOT be. Imagine trying to explain the value of freedom to someone who had never lived WITHOUT it! It’s a whole different conversation.

My idea of freedom is a memory of a time when I was still performing and in top shape able to dance and jump and turn to the point where I felt almost no restrictions of gravity. My training, strength and passion overcame most of that. For others it is having money and others it is being surrounded by love and family and friends.

The point is it is a feeling individual to each of us. Just try explaining it to someone who has never experienced it or never experienced the lack of it!

It is kind of like trying to explain chocolate cake to someone who has never tasted it and has NO idea what chocolate even IS! Oh well, it is sweet. It’s brown. It’s soft and chewy or crunchy or delicious or….. No frame of reference. None of that says what it is or what it tastes like. I mean, ok maybe they are from another planet or something. But you get the idea?

Some things you have to experience. There is no other way. And even then all is relative to the tastes and preferences of the individual. The experience of becoming, of healing, or of reaching for some intangible beyond our known experiences of our life is the same.

This is the best way I can give you a sense of what HypnoFitness is. It is something you have to experience and apply. It may take you to a different place than it takes me or someone else. But it WILL take you through an experience and that adventure is going to be individual. I have taken people through it and sat back and watched the incredible act of creating something spectacular that they came up with.

It is the way I overcame my own self doubt as it applied to my profession in dance and my time onstage. (That was the last 10% after my training and talent and hard work had taken me as far as it could.) There was no explaining the chocolate cake to me at that time. I had to trust something greater than my fears and just let it fly……

It was the missing element. It was the mind…. but no it was more than my mind. Putting it all together defies definition. But I felt whole!

What are your undefinable moments and dreams?
