Nia Selfless Lyrics

Here’s a taste of the moves and the words from one of the Nia Routines “Selfless”. You can experience the whole class on line at NiaOnDemand, live in a class at Soma Ranch or use the Nia Finder to find a Nia Teacher in your local area.

In class we’ve been thoroughly enjoying singing along to these beautiful and powerful songs. We encourage you to connect your voice with your movements for a fully embodied, expressive experience. Here’s the lyrics to help you along. They can also be used as excellent meditations, read at the beginning or the end of class or used as part of setting the focus and intent for your Nia class experience. Be well ;-)

7. THE POWER OF WOMEN

  • It's the power of women - United we stand

  • We're making a difference when we join hands

  • It's the power of women who will heal this world

  • The power of women – the power of women…

1. It's the Goddess, it's the matriarch, it's the maiden, it's the crone

Every color, every race through the ages it's been shown

That women have compassion women show the way

To a world that's filled with peace and love let me hear you say

2. As we stand in this circle feeling our connection

We can feel the power move as we state our intention

To bring peace to this world and right all the wrongs

Joining now in sisterhood we lift our voice in song and sing

Tag: We got the power to change the world so what are we gonna do?

First we have to realize that it's up to me and you

Every single day I'm gonna take the time to pray

And spread some loving kindness to each person along my way

Whatcha gonna do with your power?

We are women of power!

6. LIGHTEN UP

  • I was walkin' down the street I was feeling mighty fine

  • 'Till I caught a glimpse in a window of my behind

  • There was a jiggle and a wiggle that I'd never seen before

  • And as I looked a little closer Oh my God I found more!

  • I freaked out and I shrieked out "This has just ruined my day!"

  • Till I heard a voice inside me say….

Chorus:

  • 'Lighten Up - don't take it so seriously

  • 'Lighten up - trust the mystery

  • "Lighten Up...it doesn't matter anyway

  • "Just enjoy your life and get out of your way - Lighten Up!"

  • 2. So now I'm headed to a party to meet my friends

  • I've got an outfit that's to diet for - Honey I am just the living end!

  • But as i scope out the scene it's obvious to me

  • that the money at this party is simply obscene

  • They're talking about their mansions, their yachts, and dropping names

  • in an instant I feel unworthy, small and ashamed.

  • But as I try to make a beeline, slip out the back door

  • I hear a voice inside me saying once more

Chorus

  • 3. So now I'm looking in the mirror a new wrinkle has appeared

  • Do I curse? Do I stress? It's the thing I most feared

  • But then I remember my new mantra and I soon realize

  • That I am perfect even with wrinkles and cellulite thighs

  • I don't have to change a thing, struggle or try

  • Cause my real beauty comes from deep inside…
