Movement helps me to heal helps me to live. Without it, my body slowly decay. Our culture promote decay. It's more profitable to have a society filled with decay. Chair, couches, car, bed, sofas, cinemas, barbers, dentist, restorants... Hey, lets go sit somewhere. And do nothing. Lets not talk about our emotions our religions or our political ideals. And lets not talk about sex. Only weirdos do that. I talk to these old peoples in the village where I live. Stu, is one of them. Clean, well shaved, well dressed, always smilling and says really never nothing. But in a happy way. He laught at your jokes makes you feel listened to and makes the world a better place. It's suprising how he can completely avoid any interaction but in a happy way. Completely content, and not in a dumb way. Do I envy that way of living? I know I can't be that. But I somehow judge it too, without knowing him. I feel that his humanity has been sucked out of him and he has giving in. Which is probably a good way to be. I've met Butoh dance in a yoga ashram many years ago. Slow, tense emotional, not a dance. It left me wondering, more as an oddity than a real practice. Today I meet Butoh again. In a deeper way. As I am searching for a dance or a technique which could help unearth deeply seated trauma. A tai chi without form, a dance without rhythm a yoga without postures. An improvised melting of body into the unconcious. I found a few teacher talking about the shadow body, the subbody, the deeper layer of exsitence that can be reached trough butoh. It seens like trough Butoh, some practitioner have discovered a deeper meaning of the practice. A lot of practitioner have described how in our culture emotions and sensation are not part of our life. Trough Butoh you can re-learn these human sensations. It really resonate with my own path right now and I have to aknowledge this part of me who wants to always try something new. This is new. I'll be attending a class next week, online.
