Yesterday I went to register for my Samba classes at MamaSita and after taking one look at Dr. Sunyatta Amen, founder of MamaSita Movement and Wellness Studio, I knew I was in the right place for movement and healing.
Dr. Sunyatta was unpacking a new shipment of WoodRoot tonics when my sons and I came in. The studio was closed for the holiday but her door was open and I'm so glad it was. I told her I wanted a class card but then she asked me what else I wanted. I was at a lost for words. I didn't know what else to ask for so she began to offer a list of items I may need to begin feeling good inside and out.
First, she picked out a lovely red and green hip scarf with the coins that give your hips that sexy, sexy belly dance movement even if you are hip-shaped-straight down like me. I tried it on and my youngest son got a kick out of the jingle jangle in the sway. Then I got a chance to chat with her as she explained what woodroot does. Basically, it helps to eliminate the body of toxins, stomach viruses, colds and asthma. Next, she introduced me to the Doctor Bird Bitters which she seemed to be really pushing. She asked if I was getting enough sleep and of course my answer is "no." So Dr. Sunyatta suggested I take the bitters for the nervous energy that causes lack of sleep which comes from stress. And I've been stressing. That is, afterall, the reason for registering for dance classes... to relieve stress and grow spiritually. I figured, what would be the harm in not just healing inside/out through my spirit-mind but also my physical inside? So along with a bottle of vitamins, a box of incense and a sample of some coconut oil, I left with a bagful of preventatives to help me be the change I'm looking for in a healthy life.
