Day 3

I want to stretch out the tightness in my neck. I notice how much I crank my body to stretch out muscles and every time I do that I move away from my body not with it.

Kneeling, arms free, I move in a non-habitual way to break things up. Its fast and jagged and feels uncomfortable and ugly. I feel heat in the top of my hands. I notice the narrating of movements in my head starts to fade, my body just moves, tension and release. I’ve let go. A sense of momentary renewal and I decide to play with softness and subtlety.

No stretching, gentle movements that change before I feel a stretch ‘hit’.

I find pleasure in the slower sensation of small and subtle.

I wonder how much this plays out in my life generally.

Time to rest but I don’t want to stop moving.
I lie down, I notice my left side chest and hip is gripping, I release and soften it.
I realise it was related to a thought about someone. I drift off into a dreamy consciousness for a few minutes.

My left foot twinges again and pulls me back to awareness.
