Yesterday, after a very necessary gentle twisting of my spine and a focus on balance; i was reminded yet again, of the importance of movement. Today, I woke up very aware of my ability to balance on one foot, hold a leg in the air….and honestly dear reader – sit and stand up, the floor squat and maintain whatever balance you have in a lunge position. Dear reader, I encourage you to practise this – really simple. Pretend you are your child like self and sit cross legged on the grass. That’s it. Just do that and stay tuned as I try to take you on a journey of independence, where you might maintain core strength and fire up your motivation for movement.
My whole body was a bit happy, and then I knew I have to keep sitting on the floor and getting up with no assistance. That is lesson number one. Get into a bathtub and get out on your own.
