Squared away as access

Lesson from aikido last night. Being full present in your body squared away. Allowing the system to feel deeply. Preparing yourself to open the doorway to the next level.

Notes on Aikido Training
/-1.jpg)
Thoughts for today
How to incorporate knowledge to the system. At aikido last night I was trying to be more fluid and flow my nage. What happened - I found my mind telling my body what to do, try harder, do it better , that's not it, what's wrong with you, etc
Wondering how to relax my mind when I start training. I am clear that my mind can not tell my body what to do, but this is the way I have always done it.
Easy the mind, let the body feel, allow the system to work.
Easy, easy, allow the system
Sensei Henry Kono

Henry Kono studied with Morihei Ueshiba for 4 years in Japan.

What started my interest in Aikido

I like this quote
" Aikido, loosely translates means a harmony of spirt and body, the opposite of what most of us experience when faced with conflict. " Terry Dobson
