Sex or Salsa, Anyone?

I attended the Remarkable Women's Chat & Chew Wellness Happy Hour. I so love learning! Well, I learned something last night that surprised and delighted me. Ladies, did you know that hips "are the seat of energy for women"? Well, they are. Acupuncturist, Detoxification Specialist and founder of Women in Wellness, Cara Michele Nether, shared that there are 10 Pillars of Wellness. A woman's hips are one of the Pillars. Who woulda thought that moving your hips could actually promote health and wholeness? I sure didn't. Well, armed with that knowledge, I woke this morning ready to bust a move. Rather than put on my usual sleepy meditation CD while I shower and dress, instead I put on the one and only Michael Jackson. First it was This is It! CD. Then my daughter, who LOVES MJ, made a request and I put on Invincible. While making my daughter's breakfast, I danced. For good measure, I threw in a few Fred Astaire moves after frying the eggs. As I styled my hair and put on my mascara, I shook my hips. Drank some water, which is another one of the Pillars of Wellness, and danced some more. Not only was I healing myself emotionally, I was, to use Cara Michele's term, having "tons of fun." This one's for my friend Zee, who loves to talk and educate women about the benefits of sex and sensuality, so ladies let's get it on! Yes, let's make love! And don't be no pillow princess when you do, laying there like you're too cute to sweat. MOVE those HIPS! Gyrate! Shake what your momma gave you. Give it all you got!

Okay, if you're on a hiatus from sex, for whatever reason, don't despair. You still can move that precious energy with Zumba, salsa, belly dancing, hand dancing, hip-hop, you name it. Use your imagination, the sky is the limit. Whatever you do, have fun doing it.
