April 2016 « PLAY »
Maximise every moment of aliveness. Experience pleasurable involvement in all your activities and enjoy what you are doing. Have Fun!
Play is at the heart of our creativity and animates our being in our most carefree moments. It helps us live with absurdity, paradox and mystery. It feeds our childlike joy and wonder. It keeps our search for meaning grounded and on to earth.
There is so much going on in the world, and within us, that our stress levels have adjusted upwards to a new ‘normal’ creating a hidden epidemic of fun deficit disorder (FDD). Play is an antidote to stress. It can totally absorb your attention and cause a cascade of feelings that greatly impact your happiness quotient.
Play engages us with the imaginal realm and supports and enriches our metabolisation of life. It is integral for generating insights and effortless realisations. Play literally gives us a ‘breather’ – restoring our vitality at a core level.
This month find a fun activity that totally captivates your attention to the point where time seems to slow or even stop, and the voice inside (the one giving constant commentary on what you’re doing, have done, or will be doing) ceases. Laugh heartily at jokes, situations and yourself.
Wishing you playful, joyous moments throughout April.
And, transformed FDD to F:):)…
Warmly, Kathy
