Let’s find our Groove, find our gratitude — and dance!

One of the scientifically proven ways to change our brain and improve our mood is practicing gratitude. Experiencing gratitude helps regulate cortisol production, which reduces stress and anxiety, enhances empathy and increases energy and confidence! I know that feeling grateful - even for small stuff - isn’t always easy. That’s why it’s a practice.

Dancing is also a proven brain-changing stress reducer and mood enhancer. Starting with some appreciation for how unique and wonderful you are is a pretty good recipe for finding your gratitude. So let’s get together this week to celebrate the things we CAN be grateful for — and dance!
