Day One Assessment
Well, my Day One assessment was pretty profound. I decided to video myself doing the three-point foot drill because I was curious.
Three-point foot drill
- I discovered that I tend to lean back slightly while standing. When I settle into the foot tripod, there's more weight on my heels. Interestingly, when I find an even weight distribution through the tripod of my foot, it feels like I'm leaning slightly forward but the video shows that I'm actually standing upright.
- My left foot lightly collapses inward.
- I was lightly gripping with my toes on the left.
- In the video, I noticed that even though I was imagining the string lifting me up, my head was still slightly forward, even when I was standing as tall as I could.
That's a lot of new awareness!
Single-leg standing
- My left side is noticeably weaker. I feel my ankle wobbling and have less balance.
Lifting my arm overhead
- On the right side, I moved slowly and was very mindful, and my ribs stayed down.
- On the left, I moved more quickly and immediately noticed a slight rib flare because I wasn't as mindful.
