SynopsisThe tradition of trance dance dates back 40,000 years, to when native peoples used rhythm and dance to alter their state of consciousness for the purpose of transformation and healing of the mind, body and emotions. This is a guide to this drug-free art, and includes step-by-step techniques. The topics covered include the shamanic roots and origins of trance dance, achieving ecstasy and wholeness, and ritual tribal dancing., According to Natale, "dancing is one of the easiest ways to celebrate and heal your life. The magic of trance dancing occurs when you dance from inside your heart". Natale's music, when combined with the special movements outlined in this book, takes you safely into an altered state of awareness where negative emotions and self-imposed barriers disappear, and where mind, body and spirit are healed.
