I recently started dance and painting classes, which I’m horrible at. It has made me embrace failure and become friends with it-but in a low-stakes kind of way.

For so long i’ve had a physical repulsion to activities i’m bad at which really hindered my ability to get better and be expose to new things. Which is so lame and ego-driven. Now i’m bracing being a novice and trying to feel lucky about getting a chance to learn something new. Being the worst at something is kinda a nice spot to be in.

i took my first wheel-throwing class today and i'm so bad at it. there's nothing more humbling. it's like exposure therapy for your ego. it forces you to embody "beginner's mind". there's nothing wrong with being new to something, and the awkwardness of it is kind of sublime!!

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right
