Technologies of the self, No. 8

How privileged, lucky, and/or blessed must you be to have monetary assets, a savings account of any amount, a home, an automobile. There is another tangible asset through which you apprehend all others. Is it appreciating? Are you fully invested? It is your minded body. If we treated our other assets so cavalierly, they would soon amount to nothing. How can we start minding this corporeal asset? We can start where mindfulness begins, in the dawning of awareness. Today, enmind, your movement, a single one, the moment you bring your hands to and from your keyboard or a dish. Float your hand as though placing your hand through a silken sleeve. Mind you, it’s going to feel like a party, one to which the whole of you wants to be invited. That party is Alexander Technique.
