MORE BENDABLE, LESS BREAKABLE

Be more bendable and you will be less breakable. What a fantastic visual flashes in my head! That statement applies to so many areas of our lives.

If you ever suffered from a sore back or a stiff neck you might agree that a more bendable spine would be a good thing. If you ever suffered from a hamstring or groin pull you might agree that having more flexibility at the hip and surrounding muscles would be beneficial. In the exercise perspective, the more we create three-dimensional mobility (“bendability”), the better chance we have of not hurting ourselves. Flexibility also creates greater ease of motion. If the body bends, it chances are it won’t break.

This theory can also apply to the mind. Getting locked into a set thought pattern runs the risk of not “bending” your mind to any other possibility. This could set us up for damage to egos, relationships and future successes. I suggest our challenge this month is to work on improving the “bendability” of your body to reduce the chance of breakage, and to open our minds up to new possibilities…
