Habits

A section on ‘habits’ might be the most important resource I could explore with you an this portal. And as such, even for the Great Blatherer, it is a little daunting. What I’m going to do for now is make a list of all the confounding factors I want to [not] confuse you with.

Can we play 3-D ‘habits’ here?

• Find the pattern, love on / honor / support the pattern; expand on the pattern

• Not-fixing

• Make the connection to the differentiation resource

• Why it is so hard to change patterns with your will or analect. [that’s not a word?]

• When changing patterns is being (too) aggressive with yourself—not trusting the timing or sequence

• Why support creates space for an actual phase change [Check in w Chou about systems vocab and give them sh@#! about the ‘take off the pressure’ element of supporting a phase change]

• Classic Feldenkrais tricks for jiggling habits, awakening the brain, seducing the brain: such as novelty.

• Ways that Piloters can use these tricks in designing for themselves

• The central role of eyes

• The supporting role of hands

• Interoception and cross-talk

• Why it is ~ impossible to improve a movement while you are struggling

• ‘Do it badly’ / ambition cycle back to fixing
