Your Body Is Speaking
You wake up and your body does not yet belong to you. Your knees protest at the first step. Your shoulders need minutes before they will lift. Your fingers close only sluggishly into a fist. It is as though something has settled inside you overnight — something that must first yield before you can truly move.
This stiffness usually disappears as soon as you get moving. You warm up, the body becomes more supple, life can begin. But the question remains: why does your body need this run-up time? Why does it respond in the morning — or after sitting for a long time, after periods of rest — as though frozen? What has settled in the stillness?
