Get Up and Dance

This month I’m participating in the A to Z Challenge, blogging every day of the month of April, except Sundays, on a topic from A to Z. I’m posting short-form topics meant to get you talking and sharing! Join the discussion in the comments.

Movement in the body creates movement in the brain. It’s science, I swear. Those of us doing sedentary creative pursuits sometimes neglect movement. I sit on the couch with my laptop and/or in the desk chair at the big computer way, way too much, and my brain lets me know by slowing down. Every now and then I have to get up and just wiggle to get the flow going again.

A little bit of dance in the midst of a day full of work makes EVERYTHING BETTER.

And of course, for dance, we need some music!

Here are just a few that get me out of my chair:

Check out Martina in that video!

Bollywood beats always get the party started.

Let me see you move.
