How do you unpick your habits?
You have to feel them, become aware of them, and then you can do something about those that no longer serve you. Just as we change out clothes when they don’t fit, or they’re unreparable.
Try it yourself.
Make a thumbs up. Line up one side of the thumb with something vertical – door frame, or window. bookcase in your room. Then close and open one eye. Notice if the thumb “jumps” to the side as you close the eye. If it does, you’re opening and closing your dominant eye.
We have as many habits with our eyes as we do with anything else. Mostly we don’t think about it unless something’s wrong. But your eyes control the neck and spine. So very often, where we have neck issues, we also have an area of vision that’s not smooth either.
Peeling back the layers:
Feldenkrais is a Method that helps you unpick your habits. Like peeling layers of an onion. Until your moving is simpler, more efficient, and easier.
