Cause or Effect?

I think it's helpful to remember that the excess tension that we experience while moving is not the disease but rather just the symptom. Our principal ailment is that we are hypnotized by the way things feel and are constantly comparing the sensation of moving to our expectation of how we think it should feel. Using our consciousness {and our subconscious} in this way, we interfere with our innate ability to adapt to the changing demands that moving makes upon us. Noticing can be a way out of this trap because when we Notice we aren't making comparisons. By asking yourself "Am I Noticing right now?" the present moment moves center stage. The question answers itself most helpfully because if you are asking it, then you are Noticing and when you are Noticing your body and mind work together to release excess tension.
