Day 24

It’s oh so subtle but incredible how my mind can try and talk me out of things that are good for me but take a little bit of effort. ‘You’re relaxed, you don’t need to practice tonight.’ I dither with a playlist for a while and then as soon as I started to move I feel the unwinding.

My thoughts are running through the micro and macro, the bits and pieces of my life and trying to make sense of what’s going on in the world.

I notice a correlation with the thoughts and the movement of my shoulders, I twist and circle, a desire to open my shoulders as much as I can, then squeeze them tight and open my heart right out. I’m doing this for so long I feel a bit of nausea. Slowing down.

Moving as love I remember beauty. There is beauty.

Resting, I’m not in a hurry to get up but I’m not relaxed either.
