"Keep moving". The best way to heal yourself and to stay healthy

If we had hurt ourselves as children or if we were (physically) bothered by something, my father consistently had the remark: “Keep moving”. With his side job as a swimming instructor, we often did that in “Stoops bad” (Swimmingpool) in Overveen, near Haarlem-NL. But also, no matter how much it hurt sometimes, besides that fantastic swimming.

For several years now I am also a (Kundalini) yoga instructor and it is quite addictive. The daily combination of meditation and yoga supports me in a great way to keep me happy and healthy so far. My girlfriend as well is a bit "infected" and found her way of nearly daily exercising. And yes, true, it takes some time every day. What you get in return on the other hand is amazing.

From the end of February this year we work in Thailand on our small private spiritual pyramid house center. So far, a great experience and the retrieval of knowledge from the study of constructional engineer and architect. Blessed to be able to bring things in practice again and to work with our own hands.

That building process actually is super fun to do. Being busy with it, although a bit different, we move a lot. Judging by my waistband, it also consumes quite a bit of energy (and kilos).

My enthusiasm for building again and the moving involved brought my meditation and yoga to the background. I actually barely noticed.

Beginning April my body started to respond. I didn't notice yet the reason. I got pain in my knees during walking, in my arms, faster feeling tired, etc… Pain during the night in my legs, even having more and more trouble walking with my dog in the morning.

Until I heard my dad's voice in my head again. I had to pick up my moving, my yoga again.

I started doing my daily practice sessions (Kriyas) again and especially for my knees I made a new and extra exercise. Nothing exaggerated, meditating, calmly moving and building up the amount of movements of the exercise.

Believe it or not. In two weeks I was back on track again and I will hardly bothered by the physical disturbances that started in April. Our construction work, efforts and movements have not changed.

For me, proof that my dad's ‘Keep moving” is not only curative, but also addictive. I therefore continue with it daily to keep as long as possible happy, healthy and really connected and truly to life.
