Expanding Awareness Through New Experiences
New experiences expand the mind in ways we don’t always expect.
Today started pretty standard for me… kickboxing and resistance training for about an hour, then home to shower, dry my hair (saving future me some time), and brunch with my husband. Then he threw out a curveball… massages and red light therapy at his gym and then brunch.
Now… I’m not exactly a “gym person,” even though I show up for kickboxing at a kickboxing studio. So there was a little hesitation. But also that little voice… what the heck, try something new.
Um… yes please.
The massage chair was legit. Full body, working up the legs, into the glutes, lower back, upper back, and back down again. I closed my eyes, didn’t touch my phone (except for the pic), didn’t try to multitask. Just… felt my body. Noticed where I was holding tension. Let it move. And I had time to go a second round. ;-)
Then red light therapy. I’ve heard about it, but never tried it. Definitely forgot eye protection, so lesson learned for next time. But the warmth… it hit my skin and slowly worked its way in. I noticed my breath deepen without trying. Like my body was asking for release and finally getting it.
Nothing wildly out of the ordinary. But just enough of a shift to bring me back into my body. Grounded. Present. Appreciative.
Sometimes it’s not about big, dramatic changes. It’s about small moments that reconnect you.
What new experiences have you had this week? Big, small, or somewhere in between… what nudged you just enough out of your comfort zone to see or feel something a little differently?
