*Connecting from the feet*
・This time's memo (starting slowly)
"Neck is free"
(The head is resting easily on top of the spine)
"Head forward and up"
(The spine quickly follows the head)
"Back is wide and long"
(At the same time, the weight drops downward)
When I think that way,
my limbs move freely.
From head to feet (wholeness)
by connecting,
the limbs move freely.
This morning.
When I was brewing coffee☕
When I poured hot water from the pot,
the pot felt lighter than usual.
Huh? Why is that?
Ah, I see!
Because I am connected down to my feet this morning,
I am receiving support from below (anti-gravity)!
By letting the weight drop downward,
it rises upward.
Midori-san (my current teacher) has
taught me this many times,
and now it has come to life in my daily routine☆
Until now, I think I was
especially concerned with my hand or arm (the part)
that was holding the pot🫖.
Maybe it was good that I
suddenly stopped doing that too.
I am learning by
going back and forth between
"the part" and "the whole".
I'm not doing something with just my hand✋,
it's connected from my feet👣
Alexander Technique (how to use yourself) comes to life in daily life
by "working on yourself"✨
Won't you explore this with me🌿
