I have been watching Shrinking.

Therapy, humor, and the occasional emotional gut punch abounds.

And then there’s Harrison Ford.

Yes, that Harrison Ford, film star now playing a therapist with Parkinson’s.

Life, as always, has range.

Parkinson’s is not just a storyline. It is a progressive neurological disease where the brain loses dopamine, and the body loses rhythm, tremors, stiffness, balance issues, even walking becomes a negotiation.

Imagine your body forgetting how to move.

In Buenos Aires, the recommended prescription is to encourage people to dance.

At Ramos Mejía Hospital, Parkinson’s patients have gathered weekly for over 13 years to do tango. Slow steps. Pauses. Weight shifts. What looks like dance is actually therapy that leads to retraining balance, coordination, and focus.

Parkinson’s disrupts order.

Tango hopes to restores it, combating Parkinson’s symptoms such as freezing and instability through the specific movements of tango.

There is a lesson in that.

The world right now feels… neurologically off.

Stop. Start. Lurch. Stumble. Repeat.

Maybe the answer isn’t control.

Maybe it’s choreography.

Find a pattern. A ritual.

Something steady when everything else isn’t.

In Shrinking, Ford’s character does not defeat Parkinson’s. He adapts, finding dignity inside the disruption.

That’s the move.

Step.

Pause.

Shift.

Begin again.

You may barely be moving, but you are still in the dance.

These days, that matters.

I am feeling the pain and depression that has been forced on us, but I commit to just keep on dancing, movin’ and a groovin’…
