I remember dancing NIA on the edge of the Aegean Sea in Greece while on Demi’s retreat at Rosy’s Little Village. One of the dances involved our group of 12 or so gathering on the dance patio in a puppy pile. (That was before Covid.) Such a joyous and sensuous moment of connection and safety. I could feel the breeze off of the water and the heat of other women’s bodies. I could smell the salt water. I could hear the breaths of the other women’s bodies as we cooled down together in our pile.

The “weeping mode” really is a different way of being in the world. It’s different than the fixing, explaining, or controlling mode. We are finally free to feel the tragedy of things, the sadness of things. Tears cleanse the lens of the eyes so we can begin to see more clearly.
