Make a comfortable movement choice

You have been holding one position during a stressful task.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

  1. Notice whether you want to remain still or change position; neither choice needs an emotional explanation.
  2. If comfortable and accessible, make an ordinary small movement you already know suits you, such as shifting in your chair.
  3. Notice whether the change suits you, then continue, rest, or choose another position without pushing through discomfort.

An example

After a difficult call, I change seats and let my hands rest on the table.

Reflect

Did the position or movement make the next moment more comfortable?

Next time

Use a movement you prefer, or skip movement entirely.
