life in the superlative<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

when hyper-stimulation, hyper-reactivity, physical, psychological and emotional hyper-performance become the norm, permanent stress also becomes addictive<\/p>\n

so we tense up, we harden up, we force ourselves to hold on
\nalways more: to maintain or increase activity, rhythm, pace, performance
\nwe’re always looking ahead, towards a project, an activity, an opportunity, a journey : a headlong rush !
\nin a scattered version: it’s all over the place, it flies apart, it’s impossible to stop, impossible to say no<\/p>\n

when the slack comes
\na dose of adrenalin to keep us going, to push us further, to feel free, to have fun
\ndecompression, recharging, excitement, jubilation, a dip and then off again<\/p>\n

the norm<\/em> is to maintain endogenous stress, fed by mental conditioning and identification with an extreme and (practically) relentless intensity<\/p>\n

not to mention exogenous stress, caused by events and situations beyond our control, due to changes in our environment<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

a little physics<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

ductile
\na ductile material can be deformed and regain its shape without breaking. Breakage occurs when a defect becomes critical and spreads, at which point it becomes brittle<\/p>\n

resilient
\na metal is resilient when it can withstand shocks
\nby extension in psychology: the ability to overcome traumatic shocks and rebuild oneself (cf. Boris Cyrulnik)
\nit is possible to bounce back rather than freeze and resist (stare = to stand up straight)<\/p>\n

plastic
\nneural plasticity is the brain’s ability to recover and restructure itself
\nit consists of creating, undoing or reorganising networks of neurones and the connections between them
\nthis is how the brain recovers from traumas, disorders or lesions, and reduces the impact of neurodegenerative diseases<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

human beings obviously have all these qualities: they are extremely adaptable and mutable, constantly changing and evolving
\nin reality, everything that lives is capable of self-regulating, purifying, balancing, reorganising and regenerating itself<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

the sympathetic addiction !<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

zoom on the nervous system<\/p>\n

the sympathetic
\nprepares you for intense action, fight or flight
\nwhen you’re in a state of alert, your heart rate increases, your breathing becomes faster and shallower, your reactions are quicker, your pupils dilate and your metabolism speeds up<\/p>\n

the parasympathetic
\nconserves energy, regulates rest and digestion
\nsigns: physical and mental relaxation, peaceful breathing, good digestion, good circulation of fluids, restful sleep<\/p>\n

the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems are mutually exclusive: when one is activated, the other goes into standby mode<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

reversing the trend<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

what if we invited our body to relax?
\nby relaxing in a reclining position, without movement
\ndeep breathing
\nno external stimulation (noise, light, etc.)
\nfloating attention
\nletting go of control and allowing what is happening to happen<\/p>\n

between wakefulness and sleep<\/p>\n

in activity (well, only if you insist!)
\nfine coordination of movements
\nfocus on what you’re doing
\nyou do one thing at a time
\nwith the slowness that goes quickly<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

natural rhythms\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

what if we were to re-enter the cosmic dance?
\nby taking real account of cycles and rhythms on all scales
\nthe phases of life, of a project, of breath, of cardiac coherence
\nseasonal, circadian and biorhythms
\nstrong and weak times<\/p>\n

in the succession of things, bringing us back into phase
\ntension and stretching give way to relaxation and rest
\ngrowth leads to fullness, which leads to decline and back to emptiness<\/p>\n

what if we allowed the power of the mutable, the supple, the gentle to express itself?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

plier pour se garder int\u00e8gre
\nployer pour se retrouver droit
\ns\u2019approfondir pour \u00eatre rempli
\nse faner pour reverdir
\nmoins permet de trouver
\ntrop fait qu\u2019on s\u2019\u00e9gare
\n<\/i><\/p>\n

bend to maintain our integrity
\n<\/i>fold to stand up straight
\n<\/i>deepen to be filled
\n<\/i>fade to turn green again
\n<\/i>less is more
\n<\/i>too much leads astray<\/i><\/i><\/p>\n

Dao De Jing, trad Claude Larre<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

spaces for nothing<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

what if we got into the habit of allowing ourselves empty spaces?
\nwithout ritual or defined place, outside the time lines
\nhere, there, anywhere, anytime
\noften enough
\nspaces to be on a break
\njust with you
\nfor nothing<\/p>\n
