Tips that make you think, for a better mind-set or pragmatic exercises such as REST breathing or nutritional advice?
For the Easter days I give you an inspiration. I can’t get a sentence out of my head that is an interesting tip in several ways:
“How do you organize yourself?”
This question will probably inspire you to review how you plan and carry out your daily life. Is there enough time for a video meeting, for example, or do you need more time to prepare for it? When and how do you design breaks?
The question “How do you organize this … and how do you organize yourself” came as a complete surprise in a Feldenkrais course (online, of course). What was meant was a movement of arms and legs. “How do you manage to put your arms under your legs while sitting on the floor?” – In “Feldenkrais” it is about creating mobility, without pressure and without tension. It is a way of tracking down the tensions in the body. And you find easier ways to move. In doing so you question your patterns and impulses.
I have never wondered how my arm makes it to the ground. At that moment I scan my back, my shoulder, my legs. Where does the impulse to move begin and where am I tense, even though my jaw, for example, has nothing to do with the movement?
My tip of the day is accordingly:
Observe where you can organize yourself easier, better, without tension!
You can apply this to many areas:
- Your body movements, when walking, when doing sports
- when cooking, cleaning, working, telephoning
- plan and execute projects
- in thinking and maybe even breathing.
I hope this tip will inspire you over Easter. Maybe you will change stressful (movement) patterns and create space for an easy and joyful time at home with you!
I am looking forward to your comment! See you very soon here again!
