I have just watched the Judo on the Olympics and shed a tear because it was so emotional. ( semi final Gemma for any curious Brits )

Ive never really watched any olympic sport before - and its not because they are in London.... although that may be a small contributor Its because I'm not cross about sport anymore.

Used to really bring my hackles up. But I am finding RR magic working slowly on me!

Last night we had YLD chat and we were talking about movement. So interesting. I mentioned I have a bit of a low body smart thing ( I do admire those who are body-smart!) but I never do know where my feet are in relation to the rest of me and I am a bit unco-ordinated ( to say the least my family will say LOL) I am not very spatially aware.

But it was really good to share because there are others who have similar concerns and I am not alone With that chat ( and the conversations chat of monday too ) I am getting more insights and ideas. I have a bit of a plan now about what I am doing.

And the knowledge that my radiant friends who are body smart have already helped me so much on my way....thats a big thing as I'm really understood. Having met several very body smart people who have done their very best for me but it was hard to get me to listen. Theres a very different language of the body that I am not fluent in without a translator.

Chi walking is good for me, and I have some toe exercises and leg stretches that really help me to sort out my spatial issues.

Chat and posts here have led to some thoughts about sleeping properly and making sure thats part of the foundation to build my movement on

Massaging my feet also is a self care thing that i have discovered- and neglected- and now rediscovered.

Quite how this is all meandering round to me actually enjoying he Olympics is one of those radiant things I am a bit surprised about but also pleased. My daughter is going to call me for the final so we can watch it together. And I am going to carry on stepping gently into movement.
