The Tao of Exercise and Self-Care

The Tao of Exercise and Self-Care

“All beings, grass and trees, when alive, are soft and bending,
When dead, they are dry and brittle,
Therefore, the hard and unyielding are companions of death,
The soft and yielding are companions of life,
Under heaven, nothing is more soft and yielding than water,
Yet for attacking the solid and strong, nothing is better,
It has no equal,
The weak can overcome the strong,
The supple can overcome the stiff”. – Lao Tzu

There was once an efficiency expert who visited a chocolate factory and watched the women hand dipping chocolates. Their gestures always included various spirals and twirls in order to prevent drips as they lifted the chocolate from the vat to the paper.

Considering this a loss of time and efficiency, these women were taught to make a more direct in, out, over, down pathway. Within a week they were complaining of wrist pain, (carpal tunnel symptoms). Having fallen out of interplay with their core creativity, the small, ingenious variations within each repetitive task were eliminated, and the women became more prone to fatigue and damage.

In the accelerated pace of our nano second world, if our goal is truly to be one with nature, we must be mindful to never lose the fluid, water-like language of the body. The closest thing in nature to pure effectiveness is water. Water is the communicator, the informer and the transporter all in one.
