Capturing The Essence Of Joy,

With Debbie Rosas.

People often ask me, “How are you able to do so much every day?” My answer is always simple. I embrace and seize every moment as an opportunity to create and evolve, both personally and within Nia. I do this joyfully by focusing on the projects that call to me, tapping into my life force energy and vitality.

Imagine walking into my office on any given day to see piles of projects, each vying for my attention. I engage with these projects by tuning into my intuition and asking, “Who wants to play now?” I explore that project until I feel a shift, which for me, is when creativity begins to feel more like effort than joy.

Sometimes deadlines loom and I must push through any unexpected distractions or perceived discomforts that come my way, but always, I seek new ways to incorporate play into my day as I am guided by the foundational principle of Nia, which is “Joy of Movement” that taps into the power of universal joy.

In Nia, Art of Sensation the first principle, which is “Joy of Movement,” captures the essence of joy as pure life force energy. For many, developing this relationship begins with taking time to sense joy as something deeper than happiness. It involves recognizing universal joy as an energy that encompasses all.

This allows us to be present with our true feelings and emotions without hiding from them. It is a relationship that starts with the conscious choice to embrace universal joy through activating the third chakra, or solar plexus, where desire resides. When we consciously choose joy, we give our brains a purpose.

Our brains thrive on having a job and they love to please us! This mindful choice fills our 50 trillion cells, minds, emotions, and spirits with the dynamic vitality of pure life force. The resonance of life force energy transforms every moment into an opportunity to feel alive, present, and free from any single emotion.

Choosing dynamic joy is a, “yang” action that shapes our thoughts and directs our energy and choosing sensation awareness is a “yin” action that allows us to receive and embrace the joy of life force energy. This connection resides within us, activated by intentionally inviting joy into our lives, regardless of our circumstances.

The key to sustaining holistic fitness, health, and well-being depends on our willingness to nurture our relationship with life force energy through the joy of movement where true vitality emerges from within our whole beings, which is our bodies, minds, emotions, and spirits, and not from external stimulants or relentless effort.

I love how metaphors can deepen my understanding of things like life force energy. Consider an empty glass versus a full glass: while a body disconnected from life force energy may appear mechanical and lifeless; a body alive with universal joy radiates lightness, power, grace, confidence, and freedom.

Through Body + Life Education in Nia, Art of Sensation, as well as in any one of the Nia classes around the globe, students learn from Nia Teachers about how to activate the vibrant circulation of universal joy and life force energy which connects them to heightened vitality, health, and authentic expressive movement.

Every moment presents an opportunity to reconnect with our bodies and life force. I am deeply grateful for Nia’s Art of Sensation training and the way it invites individuals to explore their relationships with their bodies in a supportive and enriching environment. The best self-care is found in the present moment.

It is also nurtured in how we choose to engage with our bodies and our lives. Nia has taught me through The Body’s Way, how to discover the genius of my body’s design and how to function in ways that enhance my overall well-being, which I know to be essential for informed living and wise aging.

Every day, I engage with Nia’s principles and learn more about the importance of choosing universal joy to foster a healthy relationship with my body, my work, my family, and my entire life. Our journey of self-discovery and empowerment is waiting for us, if we seize the opportunity to embrace the moment.
