The Los Angeles Province Fall DESIGNS magazine will be in the mail soon! The theme this season is “The Power of the Present Moment.”
Many of our sisters and associates sent in beautiful reflections of their experience with how to get into the present moment. We were not able to fit all these pearls of wisdom in the magazine, so we are highlighting them here.
This one is from Sister Mary Schneider, CSJ:
It seems to me that what I have learned and practice during my International Association of Creative Dance zoom classes each Saturday morning gives me some insight into being in the present moment. As we gather we acknowledge each other making a connection. Our focus then becomes our own bodies preparing them to become instruments of creativity. When we engage with others through dance “hiding self view” on Zoom which hides our own picture, helps us to focus on relating to each other, to dance together, leading and following, aware of what the dance needs. Life and prayer can learn from this: acknowledge what is happening, what is going on, take time to tune into our bodies through breathing, forgetting about ourselves in order to enter into the experience of the moment.
