For years, I have been expanding into more into healthy assertiveness and yet what is unfolding in me by lifting weights (now in a more harcore way at the gym) feels profound. Physical practice quite easily leads to distinct, measureable personal evolutions. I’m more confident, things feel more do-able, I take up more space as I walk down the street. I feel more primal power like I could flip over a car if any-of-you-that-I-love-so-much is pinned under it!
Different roads lead to big identity shifts.
• to be more elegant, meticulous, polished, do ballet
• to be more concise, narrowed, targeted and focused, throw darts
• to feel more gross level, tangible, raw here-ness, do wrestling
Let the body be the driver. We don’t always need to talk about it (though that can enhance the awareness and integration). The body discovers the way.
