Day 20

Even in our most seemingly still moments, there is a gentle rebalancing all through our bodies. The more aware of it we become, the less likely we are to go against it.

📖 I usually find it easier to forget about this when there is no movement in the environment around me. I also find it more likely to brace when I'm deeply absorbed into my thoughts. Even being deeply absorbed, though, becomes a lot more pleasant with a reminder to allow the gentle movements of my body to happen.

10 minutes of mindful movement a day 🍂

For the month of October I will be posting a different thought/theme each day to bring some Alexander inspired mindfulness into daily activities.

To follow along, simply

🚴 Choose an activity. It can be the same one or different each day

(the more inconsequential and boring the better)

🔍 Use the activity as an opportunity to explore the theme

📖 Take note of anything interesting (I will be sharing some of my own notes/observations as I follow the themes too)

If you have any questions, thoughts, observations, disbeliefs, challenges, I would genuinely love to discuss it, so feel free to reach out.

Disclaimers:

1. These are some thoughts I have found helpful during my Alexander journey. They are definitely not all the technique is or has to offer.

2. ⚠ Health and Safety ⚠

Don't choose an activity that requires you to handle a vehicle or sharp object, or can put you or others in danger.
