Reflections on Self Nurturing,

By Debbie Rosas.

I recall, long ago, sitting and eating lunch in a beautiful hotel surrounded by people, noise, busy activity, but with so much to reflect upon, I found myself enjoying my own silence and feeling an afterglow of the ending of what had been a two month “Debbie Evolution Tour.” It had been time away from what I called at the time, “everyday life.” It was intended as a journey to share myself, Nia, and the essence of Nia with people who love Nia, had danced Nia, and yet they knew nothing about me except what they had seen through media.

But that particular last night was just one end. A beautiful dinner after a final event with Nia, Moving to Heal, with powerful women who made my experience magical, fulfilling, and deeply rewarding and life changing. I did my best to be very present at this end and I always cast for the next time, which I intend to show up for, however my life is; since no one really knows the end of any story from moment to moment. What I do know is there will be no tomorrow if I do not sustain my health and well-being and the health and well-being of Nia!

A long awaited event, it was something my husband Stuart had been telling me that I needed to do for many years. He had been right. I needed this connection and so did the Nia communities around the world, as at some point there will be a last time, an end. This is a universal truth for anyone.

Together, this is a responsibility I take with Stuart, very seriously. We have dedicated our lives to this work. From the very beginning, in 1983, I imagined Nia as something that could make people healthier. I was guided by my belief and the philosophy that a healthy, well and meaningful life can be had at any age and at any state of being. I have always believed that healing is what the body does, and that when we cooperate “with” our body and choose to be in relationship with both our body and our life, we can live healthy and meaningful lives.

A belief is one thing and it is a whole other thing to test your belief. I have. I did. I have witnessed thousands of people experience growth, transformation, self-healing, wellness, and holistic fitness benefits through Nia. I know many of you have too. Embraced by all ages, by all populations, it is Nia’s approach to life in a body that heals people in ways they did not know they even needed. This is the power of Nia: showing up when needed and providing people exactly what they need. Nia is a self caring and self nurturing lifestyle for everyone.

As an applied Sensation Science based on The Body’s Way, our method of looking at the body and using its design is how we come to understand the body’s function, and also understand how to move and to live in our body. I always imagine that my body and your body and every body loves that we all care enough to learn more about our body and life, and that we begin to listen to our body speak and hopefully, begin to make better choices and decisions for our body and selves. You too, can learn the marvelous self care of nurturing you.
