Neck, shoulders and upper back, 7: Moving with curiosity

by | Jun 8, 2025

A Micro Pause where we focus on the mind set of curiosity when it comes to one’s own body. You will get to investigate your body. Like a researcher looking for insight, not necessarily straight answers, but looking to increase their knowledge on something.

One great benefits of moving in an unstructured manner is that you can let go of usual movement patterns. Again, the nervous system likes repetition. With an attitude of curiosity you can venture out on paths that your nervous impulses not normally take. The result is the activation of muscles fibres so that they can start to move in new ways, resulting in increased circulation and a sense of aliveness in the body.

If you’re like most people you will spend a great part of your days sitting down. Becoming aware of how you sit doesn’t necessarily mean you have to change the way you sit, but you can use the awareness to learn more about yourself. How do you sit when you feel great? How do you sit when you feel sad? Now, go on to observe!

Body Intelligence – Dive deeper, 1: sensory hands

Did you ever think of your hands as sensory organs? Try this cool exercise: next time you are using your hands to reach for something or grab something from where your eyes can’t reach, like the back of a drawer or a cabinet, close your eyes and observe how that immediately shifts your focus into your hands. If you really pay attention you will find that it’s like a switch, eyes off, hands on, eyes on, hands off. The palms of our hands are great at sending information to the brain about the environment. Now, start tuning in!
