Quote:Yeah that's it. I haven't done it for a few days, but have found it very good
I like to do it everyday as a way to prevent the stress from accumulating. I've found if I go a few days without it my mind is kind of hectic and all over the place. But that's just me, everyone is different.
Quote:whats the book about? im doing AM11 now...and i got some depressing moment right now. it might help...
The book is mostly about trauma and using our bodies natural tremoring process to release deep chronic tension stuck inside our bodies. When most people think of trauma they think only of single traumatic events that create PTSD. But this book shows that even a cumulative amount of stress can lead to trauma stored in the body. Everybody has some degree of trauma that can be released.
As a side note
I just realized that I haven't been breathing right during the course of the day. Anxiety tends to make me tense so my diaphragm isn't as relaxed as it should be. Breathing from the belly definitely helps and reduces the fight or flight response. My throat pretty much closed up the the other day in class while I was talking because my breathing was too shallow. Breathing properly is something I should try to instill as a habit from now on.
