Day 22

This is another reminder of depth, but slightly different. Focusing on distance or space, rather than what's happening within that space, can have a different effect on our minds/bodies. It's also interesting to notice the effect of thinking about different sides.

📖 Personal note: I particularly like thinking of the space between the right and left side, as a reminder of my width. It's an easy one to forget, because width is not a dimension we are encouraged to expand into. I also like to think of expanding into the space I occupy, in a soft but non-negotiable manner.

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.
