“I’ve been here before…..”

“Your nervous system has a preset. You’ve been here before. I want you to override it.”

Said by the fabulous Dena in my yoga class today. 

What does she mean? 

Here’s how I interpreted it: 

She asks us to do a pose. 

We try it.  

We naturally go to where we are strong, which may or may not be the right muscles doing the right thing to get the most out of the pose or exercise. 

She coaches & cues us to ask more of our bodies. 

To tap into the muscles that aren’t quite as strong. 

To override a highly developed nervous system path and forge new pathways. 

I ask the same of my clients, because that’s what it’s going to take to get you moving and feeling better. 

I so appreciate a coach that understands this and asks it of me, but has fun along the way. 

I hope we can have fun, learn along the way, and get you moving and feeling better!

Happy FriYAY!

Here’s to balance, strength and nervous system happiness!
