bodies_in_motionWhat's movement for you right now?
Pointless? A resource? Calming/energizing? Something that costs too many spoons? A distraction? A way of owning your body? Impossible? Preparation for fight or flight? Selfish? Self-care? All of the above? None of the above? Something else completely?
ETA: please feel free to interpret "right now" as widely or narrowly as you want, whether that's "right now" as in "at this point in my life" or as in "in the last couple of weeks, in the face of the US election results and other world events". I was thinking of the latter when I wrote this, but either is valid.

Date: 2016-11-23 05:57 pm (UTC)* My method of commuting.
* Calming and centring.
* Rebuilding my fitness after cancer and chemotherapy.
* Rebuilding my sense of ownership/presence in my body ditto.
* One of my daily meaning-making practices (as referred to in point 4 of http://siderea.livejournal.com/1321238.html?format=light).
* Definitely self-care, and perhaps selfish, but only in the oxygen-mask-on-first sense.
* Laying a foundation for more movement practices in future (next on the agenda is running; I am trying to look only one step ahead at the moment, but definitely on the list are swimming, climbing and dancing).
