You know how I'm always obsessed with developmental movement and babies? Well, now I have one close up. It's messier and more intense than I had fantasized, and it is absolutely fascinating to watch her literally baby-step her way to new skills. Like rolling over, which she did this week! Her growth is gradual, and then quantum, spiraling between OOPS and UGH and YES!

I love watching her stick with it, rest when she needs to, and then keep going. It's a good reminder that change is messy and the only way to it is through…

Here are some psychophysical lessons I'm collecting from watching my daughter learn to roll over:

~Begin with intention - what are you curious about?

~Lead with your sensory apparatus (head, eyes, nose, mouth).

~Practice first thing when you wake up.

~Persist! When things get too frustrating, eat, sleep, play, or snuggle.

What a trip.

Returning to teaching with this new element in my life feels extremely rich with possibility. Thanks for joining me on the ride.

I'm excited to be back offering limited private lessons & group practice. Learn more or sign up for a free consultation.

Whatever you're working on, stick to it and remember- baby steps. Sometimes growth isn't linear.
