So if anyone has ever been to a concert or show you might be familiar with the practice of Moshing.

Wikipedia refers to it as a “style of dancing” but I just call it an insane release of aggression and energy. The first time i witnessed this practice I feared for my life.  Hundreds of kids shoving and flinging their bodies against each other in response to music-like some twisted Pied Piper nightmare.  From an outsiders perspective, Mosh pits can be perceived as negative and dangerous (“Why on EARTH would anyone do that?”) But when you look closer it’s actually pretty interesting.  This form of expression involves the entire body to participate.  Some pain (and sometimes death) is involved but a sense of camaraderie is achieved as well. Often times when people think of a “stress reliever” and venting frustration it’s associated with yoga or meditation and therapy.  But in this arena, one is allowed to tap in to the strong energy released among the crowd and simultaneously release their own personal energy back into the crowd.  Its like recycling-but instead of giving back to the earth, you just beat the crap out of your neighbor.
