DM #587: “One of the clearest lessons from contemporary neuroscience is that our sense is self is anchored in a vital connection with our bodies. We do not truly know ourselves unless we can feel and interpret our physical sensations; we need to register and act on these sensations to navigate safely through life. While numbing (or compensatory sensation seeking) may make life tolerable, the price you pay is that you lose awareness of what is going on inside your body and, with that, the send of being fully, sensually alive.” – Bessel Van Der Kolk

@Danielrchmura dropped this ? a few weeks ago and I’ve been waiting for the right time to post it, and with the impending new year it seemed fitting. Yes, these quotes can apply to movement, but heck yeah they also apply to life.

I’m not one for resolutions, but as we move towards a new calendar year you can’t help but reflect on the one that flew by. Explore the places you hold tension. Take a step back and look at those sticking points, those uncomfortable spots, those parts that you just want to skip over.
