Work out your own movement

I. Freeze Frame

I'm posting this photo for the people behind me--it's this funny phenomenon where a photo makes people look frozen... or like actors in a film-still.
"The Thrift Store".
(The cashier, left, is also my replacement in BOOK's--I call her Amina here. I don't know the customer.)

The blond woman ^ is a friend of a friend--we're posing for the mutual friend who lives far away.
(I'm not too keen on my self-cut hair, but I am loving not having hair wrapping itself around my face at night!)

What causes this freeze-effect? Is it partly the light?

BELOW: Amina put out this toy truck. I don't know if she didn't see the alteration to SWAT? I thought it was kind of hilarious and left it out, but I'll take it away today--I don't want someone buying it for their kid, not knowing what it means.

II. Move Your Own Self

BELOW: I just discovered the name "functional movement". (Screencap from IG.)
It's whole-body movement, based on stuff you already do--real-life movement... Or, dancing around with intention.

Of course there's science to it... but like so many things in life, you don't need an expert--you can just MAKE IT UP!

I've been enjoying watching reels on IG--not just current mini-videos, but snippets of material from the past.
Last night I saw a clip from an old interview with Noam Chomsky saying that when people ask him for advice––
"The world is so terrible, what should I do?"––
he says, Figure out for yourself what you should do. Everyone's different, there's no expert who can answer that for you.

(Like what St Paul said that I'd quoted recently: Work out your own salvation.)

Similarly, we look to exercise experts, but really,  you can work out your own movement.
