The Power of Prayer Dance

The 4 Movements
By Ivy Integration
            For this Ivy Integration, we are going to receive 4 activations for heart opening, naval balance, self-love blessing and courage initiation. These 4 activations are designed to energize, alchemize and refine energy. Chorography encourages creative pathways in the brain, concentration and greater innovation. This chorography is simple and passionate. The 4 movements are prayers each with an intention, leadership and desire. For example, the intention for self-love prayer dance is raising self-worth and forgiveness. The intention for naval balance prayer dance is steadiness and self-expression.
Dance is the greatest medicine and began before Yoga or Herbalism. Dance is the first story teller and encourages emotional, mental, psychological and sensual healing. Dance supports joy and union with self. Dance is grounded and rhythmic. It trains the mind, body and spirit to align with vision and visionary execution. We want to emerge soulfulness with physical movement for greatest admiration and appreciation for the body. By focusing on the body as a manifestation tool rather than a hand-me-down car we are blessing the body and opening the body to a greater sense of capability to breathe, receive, give and have power over our own healing.
Lack of soulful movement causes stagnation in the body and desensitization. Inflammation can occur due to lack of circularization and lack of sensitive awareness to what the body needs. The body is instinctual and has a compass on what it needs for equalization. Hawaiian prayer dance, for example, encourages breath and intention for the movement. A dancer develops self-trust, instincts and intuition through becoming sensitive to fluid, rhythmic and creatively dynamic and well-rounded movements. Activational movement is playful, passionate, and innovative. It encourages inner awareness and sovereign power. May these 4 sequences of movements awaken fresher creative pathways to support open mindedness and possibility.
